I wish more of these were in English. I can read hiragana and katakana slowly but any Kanji used always has me pulling out a reference book. I would spend so much time on one page lol.

[@Oceaniz]

With how popular the series is now, it's genuinely weird how there hasn't been an increased effort at localizing more of these books...

[@Ghdfshhs]

Learn your kanji!! It makes reading anything so much easier.

​@@Oceaniz I would have to research more to confirm but I think Japan enjoys physical copies of items more than the West. I still see fresh vinyls being made over there so someone is buying them.

It feels good to see someone showcasing and gushing about their collection of extra material to a game or series they love. Especially since I'm going down the same hole with Final Fantasy XIV and its plethora of artbooks.

BABE WAKE UP OCEANIZ POSTED AGAIN

[@Bethynaee]

I want and need every single one of these, oh my goodness. The frontier book looks so unbelievably classy and the monster hunter 1 guidebook has a very cool vibe, like it's a book from the world itself. I also enjoy the knowledge that the lore books are in-world perspectives of the researchers since it explains a bunch of stuff, like the Sunbreak gore lore that caused a bunch of dumb discourse.

[@not-a-slaughter]

for god sake, now that I know about guidebooks I'll absolutely buy the one for mh wilds

[@Ryodraco]

Nice to see the Stories 2 artbook included. That and Complete Works are the two MH books I own. I can add that at least my copy of Complete Works started falling apart pretty quickly, so I guess there must be some poor quality control on the binding for what is otherwise a great book.

[@Flooffy_number1]

Recently I found out that a friend has played some monster hunter games, and I know of it because of your videos. Well, the friend played a piece of music that is apparently from monster hunter, and I said I didn’t recognize it, and they were just like *how do you know about monster hunter*

[@superchiefdunga5394]

I hope they make a book about what life is like in cities away from the frontier villages and Hunter's Guild hierarchy.

[@chugmonke9204]

I have the gen 1-3 artbooks and its awsome to see the concept art and thought process.

I knew that Monster hunter had one artbook and a manga, but I did NOT know there were this many wtf!!!!! =and a god damn lorebook?? My love for this series never stops to grow.

[@Artwolf007]

Off topic but have yall noticed how monster hunter has been resurging in popularity lately?

[@matthalaszz]

Love to see you so passionate bro 🤍

[@bubblegumkitty9331]

I got the World Complete Works for Christmas, and yeah its as good as you say! I hope we can get translations for Iceborne, Rise, and Sunbreak lorebooks at some point too! Another note is there is a Monster Hunter manga named Monster Hunter Orage. I haven't finished it, but its a short 4 volume manga iirc. I'm not sure how it compares to Flash Hunter, but now I kinda want Flash Hunter!

[@randomnpc445]

As someone who's read both, Orage is the inferior product. Felt less like monster hunter as a manga and more like a stereotypical shonen anime with a monster hunter coat of paint. Flash Hunter does a better job of being "Monster Hunter" imo, and the art is waaaay better too. Orage is too off model.

[@bubblegumkitty9331]

@@randomnpc445 Knowing the mangaka, I kinda figured that would be the case. I don't hate his works, but having invested in Fairy Tail for a time, it kind of fell off after a point. That said, I really want to read Flash Hunter now! XD

That Rise Lore book cover looks so cool, I think I'm gonna get that...alongside the illustration books.

[@ijbsee4561]

A trick I learned when using books to prevent the spine of books from breaking is to Open it up and flip the pages from one side to the other from front to back and it helps with spine creases and might help with hard covers as well.

[@regiman222]

15:45 it's funny you used pokemon as a physical example, because ALL my guidebooks are for DS/3DS era pokemon games.

[@SilverSniper512]

Incase anyone wants my list I have included it below. There is no organization to it, just kinda randomly listed. Most I have just their English title listed as it will easily show up in Google searches by that title. The few that also have their Japanese title listed is more hit or miss in the Google results. I bought all of these through Japan Proxy services. Some you won't find on eBay, and if you do it will easily be $50-$100 + shipping. But since I bought these from Japan sites most of these were a couple dollars or $10-20 range, very few got close to $50 Enjoy!

[@CNellyu]

Does the Fatalis bit in the Iceborne book specifically reference the movie or is people just pulling stuff out of thin air? I would see it as more of reference to Dragon’s Dogma with how similar Fatalis is to Grigori. Especially, with the portal like storm that Old Fatalis descends from. Alternatively, it could be referencing the times it has been picked for MH representation in crossovers.
