For chronological order, it goes: Fushigi Yugi: Genbu Kaiden Fushigi Yugi: Byakko Senki Fushigi Yugi: The Mysterious Play

[@GeekyDreams]

OMG thank you so much!! I literally had no idea what order it should be read. EEEEKKKKKK!! can't wait to read it now! Thank youuuuu💕💕💕

[@iambee2968]

i used to read fushigi yuugi as a kid and my biggest regret was selling my manga (i got bullied for reading it in school) and it makes me so happy to see that people are reading it now ☺️

[@ann-camille]

What a great collection! Hope mine gets that big soon 😊🤣💕

[@GeekyDreams]

Thank you 💕💕you have a fantastic collection yourself! Some of those Shojo titles you have omg I want them so bad haha Basara is on my wish list 😭😭

[@carolcorreia1245]

i love inuyasha so much. it makes me so happy to see other people with editions of their own.

[@DragonHeart29]

Yona of the down (Akatsuki no Yuna) is the most underrated series out there. Such a gem Also try to check out "snow white with the red hair" (akagami no shirayuki hime) an amazing historical fantasy shōjo with a strong and talented female lead (there is also a 2 seasons anime)

[@nao_minny]

I totally agree! I follow quite a few anime/manga youtubers and so far there has only been 2 that actually talked about the series unfortunately

[@johannabora]

I always have two reactions to seeing Yona in a collection 1. Yea finally someone speaks about it 2. WHY ARE THE SPINES SO MUCH PRETTIER , I read it in German (Yona -Prinzessin der Morgendämmerung) and the spines are horribly colorful with it making sense and I get so jealous haha

[@MargReadsManga]

Yu Watase 🙌🏼🙌🏼 Such a great collection!

[@GeekyDreams]

Thank you so much 💕💕💕💕

[@strongoakreads8417]

Mars is one of my all time favorite manga series ! where do you get you plastic covers for your mangas ? I really want to start protecting my collection

[@saiyantanti8118]

Great collection. Iam looking forward to reading takane and hana

[@GeekyDreams]

Thank you :) Takane and Hana it such a hilariously series I hope you enjoy it!☺️

[@lizardc8910]

I grabbed the first Cardcaptor Sakura omnibus at the bookstore about 5 years ago (?), and then when I looked for it the other day they were all super expensive because I hadn't realized it was out of print...I was jealous when I saw those lol. I love your collection! It really makes me want to collect more

[@GeekyDreams]

This omnibus editions are super expensive now>< I’d definitely recommend the cardcaptor sakura collectors edition they are beautiful releases 🥰

[@fr0ggy590]

I recommend you read Hana-Kimi (Hanazakari no Kimitachi he) by Hisaya Nakajo. It has an amazing storyline, and amazing art. It also has lots of comedy-type stuff in it. My favorite characters are definitely Nakao, Kayashima, Nakatsu, Mizuki, Yujiro, and uhhh... Yeah almost all of them- Needless to say, I'm in love with this series and I absolutely recommend it! I hope you can give it a try! (It's an older series, so idk if it's available in physical form, but I'm pretty you can find it somewhere online)

[@NoName-kq1fi]

nice collection!! strobe edge is the best for me when it comes to io sakisaka's works tbh

[@GeekyDreams]

I really wanna give it a go every io sakisaka’s works I’ve read so far I’ve loved sooo much. It’s a definite priority for my list of new series to buy.💕💕

[@bluebell4004]

I am soooo jealous of your Mars collection!! I only have the first 5 volumes physical and can't find any other volumes at a decent price TT_TT

[@kkmiyabi]

Boys over flowers practically killed me to get. I'd keep it to see if you can get lucky. I kept a partial set of Tsubasa for the longest time and I got very lucky, so it could happen. I've been meaning to collect Oresama teacher, I've had the first 4 volumes for literally a couple of years now and I loved them so I'm going to be trying to get that series soon. I don't see it too often in others collections so it's nice to see. Also I haven't seen anyone else own any volumes of Here is Greenwood. Other than that good luck and happy collecting.

[@RangerZath]

Nice Collection! :)

[@GeekyDreams]

Thank you ☺️☺️

[@Tealius-W]

Wow Amazing Stuff Indeed. You have Ranma 1/2, Inuyasha,Urusei Yatsura,Marmalade Boy. I also would want to own physical copies of those series some day. You better believe it I will collect them All!! :D

[@GeekyDreams]

Thank you so much for watching☺️☺️ Rumiko Takahashi is one of my favourite Mangaka's.😍 I hope you get to own them they are such good series!

[@12ashleye]

I wanted to ask where did you get your bookshelves from, I want to buy a new one for my collection

[@GeekyDreams]

I got mine from Argos however they don’t do the grey coloured shelves anymore. So I’d probably recommend the billy bookcase, they are cheap and you can add more shelves and extension units when needed. I hope I helped a little☺️☺️

[@12ashleye]

Geeky Dreams thank you 😊

[@runaanelf4923]

Wow This Is An Interesting Manga Collection That You Have.

[@GeekyDreams]

Thank youuuuuu☺️☺️☺️☺️

[@runaanelf4923]

@@GeekyDreams Haha No Problem.

[@nao_minny]

As of now I believe yona has exceeded 30 volumes so you’re indeed quite far behind😂 I myself have only until vol 17 physical copies wise, however I am up to date with the manga. You should totally get back into the series ! The plot really starts to kick in after the dragons come together and there’s just so much character development for a lot of the characters:)

[@kittykins9571]

I recommend maid sama: for a classic shoujo love story kiss him not me: for a reverse harem staring an otaku gleipnir: for a dark thriller adventure fairy tail: for a cute shounen following the shenanigans of certain wizards guild have you tried any of these?

[@GeekyDreams]

I've seen the anime for both Kiss Him Not Me and Fairy Tail, but the others I haven't read at all. Though I'm pretty interested in Maidsama it's just a little hard to find atm here in the UK.☺️

[@AKnightea]

Amazing collection😍😍 please pick up Maid-Sama!!

[@GeekyDreams]

Thanknyouuuu💕💕 I’ll have to look into it and add to my to but list 😭🤣💕😅

[@EricMontreal22]

Great collection. I'm surprised by some missing titles--no Ai Yazawa titles, Nana or Paradise Kiss? Great CLAMP collection but no X or Tokyo Babylon, both of which, while old now, to me are peak CLAMP. Please Save My Earth? (OK that's hard to find now...) Love to see Banana Fish--I'd recommend checking out some of the classics by Moto Hagio who is in Japan known to be basically the queen of shoujo for a good reason. The translations are expensive and go out of print VERY quickly (try finding Heart of Thomas for under 400 bucks now) but Poe Clan and the surprisingly great Otherworld Barbara should be easy to find... And speaking of shoujo classics, there's Rose of Versailles... But what am I talking about--I am insanely jealous of the books you have that I don't.

[@GeekyDreams]

There’s so many recommendations there it’s fantastic! I’ve watched part of the NANA anime and loved it but for whatever reason never picked up the manga I know it’s an absolute classic so need to get on that at some point. When it comes to CLAMP I’m slowly making my way to getting all their series I’m waiting on finding some deals to pick them up☺️ Please Save My Earth is currently on my wish list along with Basara and Red River however I definitely feel like they’ll probably forever stay on the wish list cause how darn expensive they are😢 I don’t think I’ve checked out anything by Moto Hagio so I’m going to look into that mangaka for sure. Hopefully I find a series I like ☺️☺️ Thank you for watching and commenting I’m definitely going to checkout some of these titles ☺️

[@EricMontreal22]

@@GeekyDreams Thanks for your reply! I only discovered your youtube videos the other day but have already watched several hours... They're a lot of fun and you've persuaded me to check out some titles I was on the fence about. The frustrating thing about Nana of course is, due to illness, it still hasn't been finished... But the ending place is pretty satisfying and if you liked the anime it's a no brainer (also, due to good sales, I think Viz has kept it all in print). Ai Yazawa's only other titles in translation, Paradise Kiss, is now available complete in an affordable omnibus with colour, etc (which I really need to upgrade to--I still have the old 5 volumes from TokyoPop). I have no idea, since both have been big sellers int he West, why her other titles haven't been translated like Gokinjo Monogatari which, while aimed at a younger audience, is the prequel to ParaKiss). X of course also has been on hiatus for ages, though again it's really worth a read and I still think is the ultimate CLAMP (at least of their more mature titles). The 3-in-1 editions from Viz are beautiful and a relatively affordable way to collect it (and I still need to upgrade to the last two of those too... ^^;;). Sadly Tokyo Babylon--its prequel-- is out of print--both from Tokyo Pop and Dark Horse's omnibus but with the upcoming TV anime I suspect that could change just like how Vic reprinted Banana fish due to the anime. Yeah, I realize Please Save My Earth is a pretty hard get right now--out of print and long. I really wish I had been more on top of things with Basara--I didn't have much spending money at the time and only got the first few volumes (though I did read the whole series from the library in French). And now they're pretty obscure... (Man, it can be frustrating being a collector). Speaking of--do check out Moto Hagio. It seems like you like a lot of the more classic stuff and there's a reason she's the most revered and awarded shoujo manga-ka ever (which you wouldn't know judging by how few of her works are translated since the companies don't seem to know how to market her). What has been translated is long out of print, and some of it, like the English Heart of Thomas (the first shonen-ai manga) now goes for prices like half a grand. But art-comic company Fantagraphics are committed to annual releases of deluxe volumes of her stuff and their more recent stuff is still easy to find (though won't be for long) like her two 500 page volume hardcover 2000s work, Otherworld Barbara (which is intense and amazing) and one of her first classics from 1972 (and, even before Anne Rice, probably the first romanticized fictional take on vampires) The Poe Clan which has one volume out, with a forthcoming final volume due in about a year. Just good her name and you should be convinced how essential she is to any shoujo fan (if it sounds like I'm really pushing her, it's cuz I am!) Thanks again for your reply, and the great videos!

[@jaleeckflathead9640]

So I want to read on shojo. What series would you recommend? Not looking for a big series but more like a 10-15 volumes. Thank you

[@GeekyDreams]

It all depends on they type of series you want to read so I'll recommend a couple of series: Ao Haru Ride Synopsis: Futaba Yoshioka thought all boys were loud and obnoxious until she met Kou Tanaka in junior high. But as soon as she realized she really liked him, he had already moved away because of family issues. Now in high school, she meets Kou again, but is he still the same boy she fell in love with? If you like a bit of a love triangle with some drama then have a go at Ao Haru Ride by Io Sakisaka. Io Sakisaka has absolutely beautiful art work and the story it's self is really enjoyable. Also it's a series complete at 13 volumes. Ceres Celestial Legend Synopsis: Aya and her twin brother Aki thought they were going to a celebration of their sixteenth birthday at their grandfather's home, but the funeral-like atmosphere tips them off that something's not right. Their 'birthday present' turns out to be a mummified hand - the power of which forces an awakening within Aya, and painful wounds all over Aki's body. Grandfather Mikage announces that Aki will be heir to the Mikage fortune, and Aya must die! But Aya has allies in the athletic cook and martial artist Yûhi, and the attractive, mysterious Tôya. But can even two handsome and resourceful guys save Aya when it's her own power that's out of control? This series is done by You Watase another one of my favourite mangaka's. If you like something a little darker with some romance and a hint of mystery then I'd give this one ago. However this is an older shoujo series so some may say the art style is a look 'old', but please don't let that stop you from giving it ago. Also this series is complete at 14 volumes. Ouran High School Host Club Synopsis: One day, Haruhi, a scholarship student at exclusive Ouran High School, breaks an $80,000 vase that belongs to the "Host Club," a mysterious campus group consisting of six super-rich (and gorgeous) guys. To pay back the damages, she is forced to work for the club, and it's there that she discovers just how wealthy the boys are and how different they are from everybody else. For teen audiences. Although this series is complete at 18 volumes it's definitely worth a read. The anime is absolutely hilarious. The manga is equally as funny plus it's complete unlike the anime. I hope my recommendations are helpful ☺️☺️

[@jaleeckflathead9640]

@@GeekyDreams this is very helpful!! Thank you so much

[@GeekyDreams]

Vutha Preng No problem at all☺️☺️☺️

[@fr0ggy590]

@@jaleeckflathead9640 A Shoujo series that I recommend is definitely Hana-Kimi (Hanazakari no Kimitachi he) it's really good, but it's 23 volumes. I really like it and the art style is just *chef kiss* however, the author/artist's art style changes around volume 14. But that's just my opinion. Anyways, it's really well written and holds the spot as my favorite manga series. I absolutely recommend it, and hope you can give it a try! (Idk if it's available in physical form, but I'm pretty sure you can find it somewhere online) (It's also a bit of an older series)

[@reyortiz3287]

yes very true...yen press is a very expensive publisher due to their fame though love your video...i love the series named an incurable case of love

[@GeekyDreams]

Incurable case of love is sooooooo good!! I hope we get more Maki Enjoji titles! 😍😍

[@TheArtacuno]

If those are Ikea shelves you can buy only the shelf board thingy so you don't have to stack the mangas on top of eachother :)

[@GeekyDreams]

Unfortunately they aren’t ikea shelves 😭 the place I got my shelves from no longer do the colour. + they don’t have extra shelves either. I’m thinking of changing the setup and replacing them with the Billy’s. But it’s a bit expensive for now as there’s nothing really wrong with my current shelves. But I definitely will replace them with ikea Billy’s eventually☺️☺️☺️

[@SirZanZa]

for the dirt on your covers just use a *NEW* Rubber [Eraser] and gently brush it away. it works a charm

[@GeekyDreams]

Thank you for the tip! I’ll try it out☺️☺️

[@Brxnzee]

Even more manga... Just finished the video, and it was awesome! I don't read shojo manga (never did actually) but I think I want to read a manga by Clamp, but I don't know which one (there's so many lol). I've seen the Cardcaptor Sakura anime (it was too good) , so maybe I'll read that but I dunno, are there any other Clamp manga that you would reccomend that you think is better than Cardcaptor Sakura? Because I kind of want to read something I don't know of, but by Clamp

[@GeekyDreams]

Hmmm if your not much of a Shojo reader than I’d say maybe Magic knight rayearth it’s a magical girl mech. It follows 3 teenage girls as they are transported from Tokyo tower to the magical land of Cephiro. They are then told they must save Cephiro from the evil Zagato. This series was written in the 90s so be aware that the art style may look slights dated however I personally looove the series! Cardcaptor Sakura is a fantastic series to start with if you want to read a series by CLAMP.

[@0428_yea_baby]

You should read Mao by Rumiko Takahashi. It is similar to Inuyasha. There is going to be anime in the future if you want to watch it as well.

[@GeekyDreams]

I’ve recently picked it up in my new haul, vol 1 was really good similar to Inuyasha but I still really enjoyed can’t wait for vol 2🥰

[@sanjani]

aawww..Wedding Peach! Watched the anime as akid. WOuld love to have the manga, but dunno how that would ever happen XD

[@GeekyDreams]

The anime was so cute!! It’s a shame the series is out of print😭 I hope your able to own the series one day!! 💕💕

[@sanjani]

@@GeekyDreams me too! :D I got a few that I am keeping an eye out for, but manga isn't really that much of a thing around here so I have to be patient :D

[@all-iereading954]

Your collection is amazing. Ceres was one of my favorite manga I read in high school, but I remember nothing about it now. I am glad you mentioned The Wallflower manga ending being bad. I have been putting off getting it for years, because of the length. I'll probably just skip it now.

[@GeekyDreams]

I can’t be sure if the wallflower does end badly but that’s what I’ve heard. I was honestly so gutted when I found out cause from what I’ve read so far it was so funny! Perhaps it suffered cause it went on for so long😭

[@hitomiix]

absolutely amazing collection! i hope to have as much as you one day 😭 i am completely torn by which manga series i should start collecting, and the two options are a silent voice and full moon o sagashite. any recommendations on which one to choose?

[@bizarreindividual4026]

I just watched your last one haha

[@GeekyDreams]

😂😂😂 Part 2 is a long one as well >

[@Madcrafter13Gaming]

Could you do a review for Ranma 1/2 please?

[@GeekyDreams]

Of course I'll add it to my list of review videos I've got planned. Thank you for commenting ☺️

[@Madcrafter13Gaming]

Thanks! I really want to get into the series. The art looks right up my alley I just don’t know how the story is

[@haylz4000]

kimi ni todoke is totally going out of print, I completed mine recently and vol 20, 23 and 24 were a nightmare to find. edit: if you want to complete Otomen get on it really soon. I just completed mine and some vols were so hard to find! A couple, including the last, I could only find on musicmagpie's ebay of all places!!

[@ialwayscommentmushroom6993]

I found the second and sixteenth fushigi yugi books at a thrift store for a dollar(I bought them, of course) and this video made me buy the first one. (Mushroom)

[@GeekyDreams]

Fushigi Yugi is such a classic fantasy Shojo the art is stunning and the story is really good! I hope you enjoy your read! Oh there's 2 more series set in the Fushigi Yugi world ones a prequel and ones a sequel to the prequel I think if that makes sense 🤣

[@AKookieForYou]

Io Sakisaka is one of my favorite manga artists, Strobe Edge is really good, but I personally prefer Ao Haru Ride (I feel like the story was just developed better), and I can't wait to read Love Me, Love Me Not! I'm pretty sure Sensual Phrase has 18 volumes, so you're only missing the very last one. And if The Wallflower manga does actually have a lame ending (I dunno, haven't read it yet), I think the Jdrama is a decent substitute, if only for the fact that the main girl actually ends up with one of the guys.

[@GeekyDreams]

Omg thank you for letting me know about the wallflower jdrama honestly I’m really gutted about the manga. Especially if what I’ve heard it true😭😭 I was able to track down volume 18 of sensual phrase thank you! I’m so stupid haha 😅 Ao Haru Ride has been fantastic so far (only read up to volume 10 cause I’m waiting for vol 13 to come out.) can’t wait to see how the series finishes! Omg the first 2 volumes of Love me, Love me not we’re so good! I was not expecting the ending of volume 1. So be prepared to possibly be shocked! But it’s been a fun read so far☺️ let me know your thought when you’ve read it I’d love to know 💕💕

[@AKookieForYou]

​@@GeekyDreams You're welcome! I hope you like the Jdrama, and that you can feel satisfied by the ending. I know exactly how it feels to like a series so much, only for the ending to just be complete garbage. Once I start Love Me, Love Me Not I'll definitely tell you my thoughts (I'll probably love it though lolol) (⌒‿⌒) And if you want to see what else I'm reading, or just chat about manga, or whatever you can find me on goodreads: www.goodreads.com/a_kookie_for_you or at MyAnimeList: myanimelist.net/profile/A_Kookie_For_You
