I will forever be jelly of book shops with large manga sections, but I love this haul! I have been on a shojo binge as well 😅

[@mangatama]

aw hope your local store expands their manga section!! and yAYYY shoujo binge

[@PeanutJr.]

There is something oddly calming about going to my local Barnes and noble and seeing what’s new, and possibly finding new manga that I might find interesting.

[@vex2665]

its like a whole new world and its just so exciting when u walk into the store

[@scoutsteinmiller8673]

I want to let you know that as a manga collector, I *love* your channel! You're my favorite manga KZbinr!

[@mangatama]

ahh that means so much to me, thank you so so much!!

[@mantas3852]

As someone who watched first rent a girlfriend season and then felt in love with series and reading manga till this day all i can say don't waste your money on these series it's not worth

[@danielfromnigeria]

I watched and read rent a girlfriend until chapter 260 ish, I guess we have different opinion 🤣 I really liked the series

[@mangatama]

thanks for sharing!! i've heard similar things about the series, so I'll think about whether or not i want to continue it >

[@mantas3852]

@@mangatama It's your choice, but i'd recommend read it online first and then decide!

[@Mangaguy6.9.69]

Totally agree with you , don’t buy it . It would be better use of money if you donated it rather than buying rent a gf

[@Loxi-]

Had me in the first half ngl haha

Such an amazing vlog, I hope everyone luck on school or college!!!

[@KKchanisaGirl]

When you get around to Love of Kill, I hope you enjoy it! It’s one of my favorite ongoing series right now 😍

Wow I love that Barns and Noble, We don't have one here in Canada but it reminds me of my favourite library. Great haul!

[@r1pples]

Oh my gosh I was just at Barnes and Noble the other day! The Girl from the Other Side deluxe edition looks gorgeous, I kinda want it really badly! I recommend collecting Fruits Basket even though it is pricey (I started collecting it about 6 months ago but only have the first 3 volumes). It is a great series and definitely worth it.

[@kaygsucks]

Hi i recently found ur channel and I just want to say ur editing style and music choice is so relaxing I could watch all day. Keep it up! Love the manga content a ton

[@mangatama]

thank you so much your comment made my day!! means a lot to me

Ahhh yes ima koi is great I loved the first vol especially I really need the 3rd one 😭😭❤️

[@yolandabustos_]

Blue giant is such an underrated series. It's so good I totally recommend!

[@Waller_22]

I saw Ima Koi Now I am in Love at B&N too, I started reading scans of it online to see if I liked it before I bought it and 12 Chapters in I'm enjoying it so much, hope you enjoy it too! Love the video!

[@GodLovesComics]

3:03 That book on the left with the blue spine, Taiyo Matsumoto's No.5 has incredibly beautiful and unique art. I don't collect manga, but I've bought almost all of Matsumoto's volumes. If you haven't heard of him maybe you've seen the anime Tekkonkinkreet based on his manga series Black & White.

[@ariane1159]

I’ve never heard of blue giant too but it looks so good

[@mangatama]

i know right!! i'll definitely pick it up sometime and share it with you guys :))

[@zam_productions4179]

I was TEHRE not so long ago and I panicked when I seen that Spy x Family was still in stock, anyways I can’t wait to go back there again, you picked lots of interesting manga’s

[@mangatama]

haha yes!! Hope you're able to get your hands on Spy x Family soon :))

[@jujuano21]

The Abandoned Empress is such a fun read. A longer length manhwa than I expected, but pretty good

[@mangatama]

that’s so exciting to hear!! I’m definitely intrigued now haha

[@Eriss_Saihara]

@@mangatama oh you should be but I’m telling you the ending may be a dislike for you spoiler once you read the past history of the female lead and the …. male lead…😶 Tho to me I didn’t dislike it too much than others

[@fajarkurniawan9434]

wow they really arranged the manga in alphabetical order in my local bookstore, its like hunting a leaf in a forest and the publisher put a plastic wrap on each books, because some people think bookstore is a library where you can read for free

[@SweetAngelPinay06]

Lately I’ve been in a manga mini shopping spree-- next time I go manga shopping, it will to get the next mangas in a few series both my son and I haven’t completed yet

Welcome and thank you so so much!! 🙏🏼 You made my day, I really appreciate your kind words!!

[@MrFourchords]

yes its good but she likes cardcaptor sakura

[@midorimochi]

Oh, The Abandoned Empress! Recently got the graphic novel and it’s pretty good so far, the art is beautiful and it’s full color. They’ve been publishing a few Korean manhwas and it’s worth checking out too haha. Also the “I thinkI turned my childhood friend into a girl” was one I found to look interesting too! The art looks really nice, might be promising~ also AHAHA LOVE OF KILL Oh my goodness it was quite good, the anime came out not long ago (with Shimono Hiro voicing the ML!) but I feel like it was better as the manga XD

[@SalvadorAndSeth]

Time to eat and watch this video!! Yess

[@3tacoman]

Hell ya !!!! Welcome back

[@jlnny]

i loveeee lovesick ellie!! one of my fav shoujo manga it‘s sooo cute and funny. im deffo gonna check out imakoi, looks adorable :D

[@mangatama]

ahh I'm so glad to hear that!! I've read more of imakoi than lovesick ellie so far, but I'm sure I'll also love lovesick ellie!! :))

[@AnyasPeanut]

You are so lucky that you actually have stores that sell manga all the manga in my country is imported and is SUPER expensive so i cant even buy a single volume since I don't earn and so I have to read online or just wait for the anime 😮‍💨

[@ashlee227]

i’m currently collecting the Rent a Girlfriend series and it was one of the stories that got me hooked on manga, unpopular opinion but i just think its rlly good :) Loved this video as always🥰

[@ghostphira8712]

I started to like it, but the story never progresses and the dude is so creepy and desperate

[@spiele_maus]

You know what, it’s always so nice if you go to the book store and they have all the volumes you wanted to buy and you don’t need to order them first. The bookstore in my nearby shopping mal is relatively small, the manga section is like one shelf with about 4 meters or so, but compared to the small size of the store, it’s actually really big, I mean it’s bigger than the „books for 12-17 years old“ section which used to be much bigger but seems to get smaller every year, and the manga section keeps growing lol. But they usually only have the first and latest volume of every series, but what I really like about the store, is that you can order books directly in the store if they don’t have them and they will be there in 1-2 days (!), and you don’t need to register by your name or something, you just go there and say what you want and come back in 1-2 days and they will have it. So easy. For the media store, where I buy anime discs it’s much more complicated, they also have a large Anime section (even larger then the western animation/cartoon section) but ordering stuff there’s really complicated, cuz you need to register by your name and it usually takes a minimum of 4 days, most of the time a week until it arrives.

[@Tumtumtickler]

Nah I sat there and watched the whole intro omg... I didn’t even realize I was watching it

[@ivypanduh]

Love your selection~ I'm really considering starting sign of affection. Lately I find myself wanting settings around college age n up~ also gonna with the dress-up darling anime! btw your hair color is very cute 🍒🌸

[@ri1570]

a shoujo series i recommend that i think you don’t already have is school zone girls!! it’s a super silly manga surrounding a bunch of school girls who are all falling for each other, but all don’t know their feelings yet and are all trying to figure themselves out. highly recommend for a chill and relaxing manga. and vol 4 is coming out in december !!

[@yasmineroquet8057]

Oh wow! What a coincidence, I also went to get manga today 😅💕 weekend are fun for that lol

[@mangatama]

yesss definitely!! :)) manga shopping days are so fun

[@449martinez]

Wait a minute!! That’s my Barnes and noble that I go too!!! That’s so awesome!! Lol haven’t been there in 2 months. 😄

[@mangatama]

Ahh really!!! That’s so cool haha, hope you get a chance to go back sometime!!

[@rise.dmonkey8001]

New video yes ❤️❤️❤️

[@bryanb2014]

In the Barnes and Noble in my area the manga and light novels section is about 3x larger than the Marvel and DC comics section. I usually get my manga and light novels there as well.

[@originalosi2550]

I surprisingly am not a big shojo fan but one I’m absolutely in love with is Library wars: love is war absolutely amazing I love the theme of freedom of speech and standing up against coruption and for what you believe in. A little summary basically Iku the protagonists joins the library defense force (a milita that fights against the MBC to preserve freedom of speech) and becomes the first woman to be on the special task force, this isn’t the best summary of it but I tried to keep it as spoiler free as a could. It’s super cute though everyone I’ve recommended it to said they absolutely loved it.

[@frenchtoastchopsticksmanga5792]

Dress up Darling is really great. It is so sweet!

[@mangatama]

i know right!! I really like it as well :))

I’ve been collecting recording and Have school on top of that Manga is my only stress reliever lol 😭😭😭

[@benji_culberson]

I love your channel!

[@mangatama]

thank you so much!! :))

[@laurelgaze9939]

If you have one in your area, I'd suggest checking out a Second and Charles as well! It's a used book store so it's cool to see what kinda manga they might have. I've found some used hxh, hana kimi, and most of demon slayer. They also have new books too, but I like to try to pick out the used ones cause they're normally cheaper XD

[@nancybonilla2645]

Love of Kill has an anime, i loved it!

Signs of affection is one of my fav manga series, I have the first 5 volumes and the art and story is amazing. 🤩

[@butter_fly3539]

great video as always!! really enjoyed it :) if you're looking for shoujo romance series, I would definitely recommend you: -high school debut -wake up, sleeping beauty -takane & hana -my love mix-up (super funny) -honey so sweet -my happy marriage (manga, but the light novel is great too) -daily report about my witch senpai -the saviors book cafe story in another world (isekai) -those not-so-sweet boys -qq sweeper (prequel) and queens quality (action and fantasy is the main genre, but the romance is amazing) -the kings beast (same here) -sacrificial princess of the beast (fantasy and a political series with great romance here too) not a shoujo (it's a seinen), but I love skip and loafer and it's truly such a good slice of life series with romance included. one of my favorites :)

I've read the entirety of Abandoned Empress. It's a pretty notorious manhwa among fans of the genre. It's amazing, but the ending is not amazing. This manhwa is famous for making people very angry because of how good it is. Essentially the ending becomes the ultimate let down. (It's also famous for the sheer degree of second-lead-syndrome) This is just warning for those who thought it looked interesting, you can still read it if you want to though. It's got beautiful art and interesting characters.
