pro tip, if the sleeves warped, just use a hair dryer to heat it up and it should return to it's original state. I stored mine vertically for a while and the bottom of the sleeve were fixed with that method.
Never get tired of seeing the works of the master Otomo, i for one love his early works, you can certainly see everything that lead up and echoes onward in Akira, some of the elements and style is already in place and rather developed. His work is pure gold of the mind and soul! As always, thanks for showing these awesome books. Hope all goes well during the typhoon and all.
Wow, "G" is a must have, so many interesting and different works! Too bad that "Blue Bird" is not included with the other fairy tales shorts, it's one of my favorite artwork by Otomo.
@@japanbookhunterkodansha confirmed 8 volumes for Akira and a minimum of 35 volumes for the complete works as a hole. I bet more than 40 volumes in total, and next covers' colors after vol 25 probably will be purple, blue and green.

Hey dude- loving the videos! Do you think we will ever see the Otomo Complete works in English? I hope so!!!
I doubt it my friend. It's taking forever to get out the JP versions!
You are doing a great public service sir. Thank you very much.
Glad you enjoy the content!💪💪
Nice!
Any reason why vols 5 & 6 of the Japanese colour editions are so hard to find?
Prob lower print run. Later issues tend to get lower print runs than the earlier ones bc some fans just give up.
Otomo is GOD!
How many more volumes will there be for the complete Akira set?
8 in total
I think 26 in total...around that
Oh I mean in the Complete series. 8? @rafaelgonzalez8971 ? I'd guess 6 like the KC Deluxe, but I should really check.
@@japanbookhunter thanks for the reply! Enjoy your weekend!
