Pandora Hearts is an absolute masterpiece, it is quite depressing though towards the end of it. If you like Vanitas you will love Pandora Hearts

[@tsukkinotes]

thanks for the insight! i plan to read it sometime this year for sure

[@thegothicmermaid5382]

It's my Fave Fantasy series!

[@hangehzmanga]

I love your collection. Its so cool to see its growth within the past two years, excited to see your collection grow from here!

[@tsukkinotes]

thank you!! i am also pretty shocked at how my collection has grown but even though i have more volumes than last time it feels more curated in a way 🤔 idk how to describe it

[@KKchanisaGirl]

Enjoyed watching this! It’s always fun to see what others have in their collections! 👀

[@tsukkinotes]

glad you enjoyed!

[@bizarreindividual4026]

Your collection is amazing! 😮 I love how you collect with not getting out of print ones. Yes those stress me out. I used to only buy used manga so that is why I have so many gaps. I now focus on either a full series together or new releases. Thanks so much for sharing with us ❤

[@tsukkinotes]

thank you!!

[@J17891]

Your collection is amazing! I’m not really a light novel reader either, but I started reading the Apothecary Diaries light novels to cope with waiting for the manga releases 😂 the light novels are only ebooks for now and I’m not much of an ebook reader, but this series just seems to be the exception. It’s just so entertaining to me

[@tsukkinotes]

thank you! and oooo yes i really hope they end up printing the light novels physically!! one series i would read in a heartbeat since i'm loving the manga so much

[@llheji]

I'm terrible at commenting, but just wanted to say I really enjoy your videos and hearing your thoughts! There are a few series that you showed in this video that I haven't heard of, but might have to check out (Sunny, House of Five Leaves, and Run on Your New Legs sound really interesting to me!) 😊 Also, I know you've mentioned the struggle of finding good gls in your other videos - have you read She Loves to Cook, and She Loves to Eat? I read volume one recently (volume 2 comes out this month), it's nothing crazy plot wise, but the first volume was very wholesome and had quite a realistic feel to it. So if you're ever looking for another gl were the characters are adults with healthy, supportive interactions - it may be worth checking out! (Although, again, I can only really vouch for the first volume!)

[@Lynndere]

Very Beautiful collection!! "Run Away with me girl" has only 3 volumes so I suggest to wait for all of them to come out and then read it all in one sitting. I did this and really enjoyed it^^ Oh and The volume 0 oh hanako is actually about the first 3 chapter of the story, but like the first draft and then there is a bonus short story by the same author, and it's a bit.. intense 😃

[@tsukkinotes]

thank you! and thanks for the insights on both series 👁 now i'm curious about that volume 0 lol

Wow! I love how you have read 75% of your collection!! You go girl! I didn't know you read Dr. Stone! I've been curious about that one! I need to see if my library has Whistle! Descending Stories is one I keep seeing recently! I need to look into it! HIGH SCHOOL DEBUT!!! It made me so so so happy to hear you say its one of your favorite shoujo manga! I second everything you said about Kimi ni Todoke! WOW! It's amazing to see you have Kids on the Slope! Would you recommend it? I've been super curious about it after getting a recommendation for it! Yes yes yes to Kaiju No. 8! One of my favorite ongoing shonen manga too! I just got Toilet Bound Hanako-kun because I've really been enjoying the beginning! I'm hoping it doesn't get TOO dark! LOL! This was so fun to watch!! I really enjoyed watching!

[@tsukkinotes]

thank you!! and yes ah i love dr.stone, especially the science aspects, i've never read a series like it tbh. and i would definitely recommend kids on the slope! the anime is great, sadly there is no official english manga release though :( and i know this is an old comment but did you continue with toilet bound?? i feel like around maybe volume .... 8 is when it starts to get pretty twisted and almost horror-y at times

[@biiaann901]

Hi! Love your videos, your collection, and your recommendations! ❤ If you're interested in starting another action shounen, I highly recommend World Trigger! You seem to like a lot of sports shounen and the longest arc so far in WT is basically a tournament so you might like it too It is to me what Yowamushi Pedal is to you so I might be biased here 😂

[@tsukkinotes]

thank you!!

[@TheLunarAria]

Wow what a great collection and organized so nicely! I didn’t see Fruits Basket in your collection. I stopped watching Anime and reading Manga, but became interested again with the Anime remake of Fruits Basket. Is there a reason you don’t have it in your collection? And any recommendations? The last Mangas I read were Fruits Basket, Nana and Death Note (loved all 3). Thanks!

[@intrepid1160]

Love your collection, I’ve been addicted to watching manga collection videos lately, it’s great seeing everyone’s tastes and how they choose to display everything. I have a Yuri recommendation for you if you’re interested, it’s called The Summer You Were There (Kimi to Tsuzuru Utakata). The mc feels guilt for how she treated someone when she was younger and hates herself. It’s got similar vibes to A Silent Voice, but I don’t want to spoil anything. It’s very heartwarming and made me tear up several times.

[@tsukkinotes]

glad you enjoyed! and thank you for the recommendation! seems interesting

[@bachiranotes]

you have a manga library :o it’s so cool 😯

[@tsukkinotes]

thank you!

[@jmw9754]

Loved the video!! If I can rec anything based on what you currently own I'd possibly say Bungou Stray Dogs?

[@tsukkinotes]

thank you! and thanks for the recommendation! i think i’ve seen like one episode of the anime for that but i’ve always been interested in getting more into the series

[@abbysharpe1214]

Durarara!! I love that anime so much. I've seen it... way too many times lol!! And Izaya is definitely my favorite, too! Your taste is 👌

[@marcyemerson7960]

I collected all of Blue Giant and when that pervy stuff happened in Volume 1 I got really worried. I pushed through and nothing like that ever happened again! I'm not a fan that it was there to begin with though. Anyway, I ended up enjoying it!

[@tsukkinotes]

thanks for the insight!! that makes me feel better about continuing the series

[@AardvarkWithASaw]

Have you read any wandance? It’s focused on a high school dance team with just a few volumes out so far. I like it so far but wouldn’t say it’s amazing, though the way the dancing in particular is drawn is really cool. Seems like it could be up your alley with the sports aspect

[@tsukkinotes]

hi i have!! i’ve read 3 volumes of it (it’s on my shelf near the end of the video), i love the art and the dynamic between the main characters, their friendship is great (and maybe it will develop into more? 👁️)

[@AardvarkWithASaw]

@@tsukkinotes Ahh I was listening to the video while walking the dog and must have missed it--glad to hear you enjoy it!

[@gpiershale]

Have started reading/buying manga pretty recently. As a queer man with a low tolerance for fan service, I really appreciate your commentary and taste! I started 20th Century Boys recently and am spellbound by the intrigue and mystery. Thanks for making your videos!

[@tsukkinotes]

glad you enjoyed! 20th century boys is great

[@zed9165]

Blue giant is actually good and it's getting a anime adaptation so you should give it a chance

[@tsukkinotes]

i plan to at least read one more volume to see if the "humor" improves!

[@larrythelatypus]

I bought one volume of Whistle! and haven't read it yet - can you speak on how the manga is? the vibes, if there's anything problematic, that kind of stuff? I'm a huge Sayonara Football fan and I played soccer for 13 years so I love a good soccer manga moment but don't know much about Whistle!

[@tsukkinotes]

of the 10 volumes i've read whistle is great. the soccer is realistic and i LOVE the characters. the story really delves into their personal/home lives and how that affects their relationship to soccer and i am definitely a sucker for sports manga with these elements. it is an underdog story as well if you like that setup, the mc is very short and his team is kind of starting from the ground up. in terms of the sports elements i would compare it to haikyu and in terms of like a good mix of drama/ slice of life elements i would compare it to big windup! hope this helps (i don't remember any problematic elements, the mcs older brother is a host though)

[@larrythelatypus]

@@tsukkinotes awesome thank you!!! this sounds like something I'd really enjoy, big Haikyu fan here as well so I appreciate you taking the time to help me out :-)

I have a question about Crossplay Love, is the incest plotline brought up a lot or was the misunderstanding destroyed right in volume 2? because I dropped the series when I saw that Punk dude's little brother confessing to him/her in the vol 2 sneak peak, if the misunderstanding was destroyed or it rarely gets brought up in the next 2 then I'll pick up volume 2 (and 3).

[@tsukkinotes]

i had to look at the volume to see what you were talking about because i had no memory of an incest plotline … so that is not his brother, he is in terms of like their little delinquent band, the punk guy is their leader so they are all like “brothers” so if what was concerning you was that they are actually related then 😅 but yes he does continue to pursue punk in his crossdressing getup

[@lorky4014]

​@@tsukkinotes I also have a bad memory about it since I read the first volume of Crossplay love in like the end of September or during October of 2022, I must've misunderstood it when I read it and dropped it ever since to not fix the confusion I had, Anyway, good to know! it was really cute and I loved the characters, so I will 100% pick up volume 2 and 3 now that my misconception is over! 😅

[@ellythehuman9304]

💜💜💜

[@starryv.2.117]

hey!! for the classmates manga,, can you skip volume 4 and still understand what’s happening in volume 5?

[@tsukkinotes]

yes and no,, in japan all of these volumes were released separate of one another (not numbered like volumes 1-6), i have no idea why they did this in the english release tbh but that means technically everything is standalone. in english volume 4 is more like a spin off about a character in volumes 1-3 and volume 5 is a short story collection that features chapters about all characters in the doukyuusei “universe” so to say. volume 5 has some content revolving the couple from volume 4 but i have it pretty much just for the chapters about the couple from 1-3 (sorry if this is confusing) 😭 volume 6 is like the sequel of 1-3 about more of their adult life so i would say 4 is worth the read if you want the FULL picture but not necessary especially since it explores triggering themes

[@soniciris]

*Villains are Destined to Die* is SO good! I love isekai especially the 'villainess' subgenre--for a comedic (but very sweet and wholesome) take, *My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to DOOM!* is kind of the gold standard; but my personal favorites are *Accomplishments of the Duke's Daughter* and also *The Most Heretical Last Boss Queen,* since they are less about romance and more about them using the knowledge from their former lives to try and improve their kingdoms and the lives of their citizens. it's what got me into isekai after I was burned by isekai with male protagonists--which mostly seems to be cringeworthy wish fulfillment in the vein of 'what if some loser dude got sent into a fantasy world and he was the HERO and all~ the big-boobie ladies LOVE HIM' a;dkjghdaklfjgh.

[@tsukkinotes]

[@nushrathumaira2257]

@@tsukkinotes I usually like gag sort of comedy and I think I didn’t give Arakawa proper chance. With my Adhd, I shouldn’t have binged the anime, which made me lose track of the characters being introduced and their dialogue. If I do get a chance, will try the manga this time.

I started reading High school debut but dropped it. The male lead is too snobby for me and I find that the girl doesn’t have much self respect for herself ^^; And about Skip and Loafer, I actually hope that the story doesn’t go into a romance direction and that the two MCs stay as good friends. I think I might start collecting the series if it’s like that

[@tsukkinotes]

i love high school debut but everyone has different tastes! and so far from what i've read skip and loafer is more of a coming of age, friendship story

[@mahoupanda2639]

I am with you, the thrill of the chase is not for me. Sometimes I am like man I wish I was rich so I could just buy series I want without having to hunt for a bargain and whatnot. I would be interested in more in depth GL recommendations from you as a lesbian, I want to get into it but I have been burned before where it’s a series that is well known and it ends up being gross and fetishistic. I just want to see cute girls have a nice romance not having a horrible time and fetish stuff 😭 obviously conflict is fine but I don’t want the conflict to play into the male gaze if that makes sense

[@llheji]

Hi - sorry to but in on your comment (I was actually just writing something similar in a separate comment!) But I relate to your gl pain! Have you read She Loves to Cook, and She Loves to Eat? I read volume 1 recently (volume 2 comes out this month), there's not much going on plot wise, but the first volume was wholesome and had quite a realistic feel to it. It also briefly touches on the 'male gaze' issue as it has a few moments where the girls call out that bullshit. It was just a sweet read, and the characters are adults with healthy, supportive interactions - so it may be worth checking out if you're looking for a new gl series! 😊 (Although, again, I can only really vouch for the first volume!)

[@mahoupanda2639]

@@llheji I haven’t yet but I have been eyeing it up so it’s good to get a solid recommendation :) The concept sounds super cute I’m definitely going to keep an eye out for it when I go shopping next week. It’s funny too because my girlfriend is in the process of learning to cook for me so it might be extra relatable 😂

[@bloodline4813]

I never understood the 18+ rating on My Dress-Up Darling there is just a small portion of nudity in it and that's it then there are other manga with gore and other adult themes that are 15+ to 16+ like Battle Angel Alita for example for the record I love both Alita/Gunnm and My Dress-Up Darling
