I understand your speech at the end, I have spent a lot of money in manga in the last 2 years and I ended up selling many volumes because I started buying more than one volume of a series to "try it better". I believe that focusing on reading can help in deciding what to buy. There's no shaming in selling series that we didn't like
Arakawa Under the Bridge and Dorohedoro are both two of my favorite manga and anime of all time! I'm so happy Dorohedoro volume 23 finally came back in stock here in Canada recently too, Volumes 18-23 were the only ones I was still missing but I was holding off until 23 came back, so now I have the complete series and can read from the start until the end! :-) Also manga is way too expensive here. I know there's a conversion rate but most volumes other than viz are like $16.50-20 dollars Canadian here, and that's just for single volumes (not omnibuses which retail for way more of course). Viz volumes are like $13 now and I remember when I was younger they were like $7-9ish? Also someone probably already mentioned this but the dot on the bottom of your Saint Seiya manga is called a remainder mark (or something along those lines) it's basically overstock when a book or manga isn't selling well but they have a lot of copies. They put the sharpie mark on it so people can't sell it for full price anymore.
Hi! I was (as usual) feeling so shitty and in pain, but as always your videos cheered me up and made me feel a little better. Just wanted to say, thank you so much for existing and that I wish you all the best in life ❤️
I fell asleep watching this yesterday so I'm rewatching and you never fail to amaze, this video was an amazing addition to my Monday evening, thank you
I bought Tokyo Aliens in November cos it was a cover buy for me haha I read it and surprisingly enjoyed it! Ill definitely be continuing. The art is SUPER pretty too!
Nice haul!! The dot on the bottom of the manga is called a 'remainder mark', i'm pretty sure it's for when stock isn't selling so they get returned to the publisher and they have to mark them with the dot to signify that it's been on store shelves and was returned to them, so nothings necessarily wrong with them, they just had overstock that wasn't selling!! - I also got Saint Seiya Saintia Sho like 1-9 on a clearout sale with remainder marks as well! I heard it's a side series to Saint Seiya & it's kinda far down the chronological order list of when to read the different series so it might not be good if you know nothing about Saint Seiya
Oooooh this comment was so insightful ! Thanks so much ❤️❤️❤️ hmmm I know nothing about Saint seya 😭 but I’ll see if I can get into the first few volumes before deciding what to do with them next x
What i do is reading manga online (mostly completed series) and of i really love them i buy the physical copies. I made the mistake of buying mangas before reading the whole story and regreted it so i understand your feelings!!!
WOOOWOOO!! sorry i haven't been commenting on your other videos 😢 i was busy and didn't have time to write a comment. But now i'm homeee! I have abt 63 mangas now! And I'm currently collecting A Sign Of Affection and i haven't read it yet bc i'm waiting to get enough to binge. BUT I LOVED THIS VIDEO! AND I WOULD DEFFINATELY WATCH A SHOUJO HAUL! ❤❤
omg, i'm so glad i watched this. one of the series you showed is *perfect* for a friend of mine's christmas gift, now i know what i'm buying at barnes & noble later this week!! :D
I relate on the binge reading I can’t remember anything after a little while, memory like a sieve 😂 banana fish is so good! I finished it and was instantly like I need a tattoo from this…I ended up with two 😂 I’m currently reading pun pun so the Dan da Dan weirdness isn’t shocking to me lol. I think that’s a good point about is it popular or do you actually want it, I read a lot online and I find that a good vetting system sometimes because if I end up liking it then I get physicals and if not then I haven’t gone through the hassle. Prices are so out of control now take me back to things are cheap and there is always stock days 😭
I’m planning to read pun pun over Christmas so we’ll see how that goes ahaha! So cool you got tatts of banana fish too! I wish I can read online like how I used to but for some reason I no longer have the appeal or want to go out my way to do so. I think it’s also I’ve just become more accustomed to having them physically and less harmful for my eyes. Maybe one day I’d find the fun again to read online as that would save me so much ahahah
@@Himeka_00 since getting an iPad I have found reading so much easier than when I had a laptop I read on in the past. I need to slow down on the manga buying and the manga tattoo buying 😂 I got six this month 🥴 there is something exciting about just picking something in the shop I will admit, that’s how I used to choose things back in the day. I would spend ages looking at stuff because Im from the countryside so it was exciting when I got to go to the nearest town, it’s easier to romanticise than just clicking add to basket too 😂
I make a downsizing of my colletion every 2-3 years and it works! 3 years ago I also move to my apartment, sell around 30% of it and I feel so good! I need to make another one next year xD!
Great video as usual (yes I'm currently watching all your videos that I haven't watch yet back to back while studying for finals lol) Yes Jjk is worth the hype! The manga is sooo good! You won't be disappointed! I have read recently "Practiced Liar by Memayaki", it's a really fluffy filled BL and "On Doorstep by CTK" and that my friend is a really saucy yaoi (def worth the read)
I honestly think JJK js worth the hype. At least I love it. I tried other hyped series like AOT and it just wasn't that good acording to me, but I can see why people like them. But JJK had blown me away and consumed me.
I think the audio sounds great! What do you not like about it? The only thing I think that can be improved is increasing the gain on the mic. You may also want to check to see if echo(background) cancellation is on or off. When mine is on, it makes my mic sound super weird.
Ahahah we all bad influences to one another 🤣🤣 Yeah the audio is in and out as the mic parts gets too loud where you can’t hear what I’m saying so I had to switch it or it would be even more unbearable to watch 😭😭😭 still trying to figure what to do with the set up!
@@Himeka_00 you're all terrible people haha that sucks, sounds like the gain or noise gate might be too high. maybe check the Mic settings then do some tests recordings speaking low >_< I'm sure you'll sort it out soon GL
@@Himeka_00 hahaha that's okay girl! Which one of the manga dudettes has the first impression vid of u and geeky dreams' at caketinz library? can't seem to find it! huhu

Yes I really need to go through every series in my collection!
@@Himeka_00 Happy New Year Himeka!!! Hope 2023 will be great for you, and everyone in the comment section!!!
I agree how manga collections can be over whelming, I got so many in October and I'm like 😳

awesome haul as always 😌 dandadan is amazing and so weird but in a good way give it a try 😭
Ahaha the pages I flicked through was so weird 🤣

It’s great to get reviews from a UK collector, buying from same places as myself😊🇬🇧
Yesss! It deffo helps especially knowing what’s currently available over here!
@@Himeka_00 I find FP and Amazon, the best places to buy.
Love all the recommendations 😊Uniqlo have another collection of spy family out now and I caved 😂
I need to check it out!!!😎😎
As someone who finished Dandadan last night, I shall say that it's a great story, but might not be for everyone!
Oooooo the panels I flicked through of Dandadan deffo got me thinking how the heck do they end up in such a situation 🤣
Hello! I was listening during the premiere but I was too busy to chat along. Thanks for sharing your haul as usual.
❤️❤️
new video!! so happy💖💖💖
Thanks tiff 💕💕
I honestly think JJK js worth the hype. At least I love it. I tried other hyped series like AOT and it just wasn't that good acording to me, but I can see why people like them. But JJK had blown me away and consumed me.
Oooooooh I really loved AOT so I wonder would I be on ther side like how you are with jjk x
Happy New Year!
Happy new year love ❤️

Thanks Dan! My mic doesn’t have any settings to switch around 😭 I just record it straight as a voice memo on my laptop 😅😅
Caketinz is a bad influence.
Good luck with picking up Banana Fish
Did you do anything to the audio when editing? Strange it kept changing
Ahahah we all bad influences to one another 🤣🤣
Yeah the audio is in and out as the mic parts gets too loud where you can’t hear what I’m saying so I had to switch it or it would be even more unbearable to watch 😭😭😭 still trying to figure what to do with the set up!

JJK is great
is it a himeka video without a long (ish) intro ?! 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
I think Banana Fish only has 19 volumes? :D
Yes I think I was confused with another series 😅😅🤣
@@Himeka_00 hahaha that's okay girl! Which one of the manga dudettes has the first impression vid of u and geeky dreams' at caketinz library? can't seem to find it! huhu
@@gilliandecastro6291 it’s on Caitlin’s channel x
Does asadora count as a seiner???
Yes it’s a seinen series
Hello. I like the mic. You look like a disc jockey.🎄
Ahaha thanks!
I'm on volume 4 of Dandadan, and I'm really having a great time with it, is weird and funny, I'd like to know your thoughts!
Loving the videos!
Ooooh that’s great to hear you’ve been enjoying it! Fingers crossed I’d like it 🤞🤞
