    There was an InuYasha boxset that came with the first two manga volumes and the first volume of the anime on DVD that you missed. I can't find it online but I owned it as a kid so I know it exists.

    For clarification, while there is a Bakemonogatari manga that recently concluded, the box sets of the Monogatari series discussed in this video actually contain the light novels that said manga series is adapted from.
    I wish more series were given the box set treatment, if only so it would easier to pick up an entire series and have them as display pieces. My dream sets would be Yu Yu Hakusho and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders, but given the latter is now out of print in paperback form, that dream set sail years ago.
    Good video.

    • @ShrugPod

    Were you able to find any information on any other earlier Dragon Ball box sets? I recall seeing ads in early DB and DBZ prints for mail away slip covers. I thought it covered the whole run. However, I can’t find copies of the ads or photos

    • @ShrugPod
      @ShrugPod  7 месяцев назад

      I think so! If I’m thinking of the right ones, there were two box sets for DB and three for DBZ. I mentioned the first DB one early on in the video, but I didn’t mention the other ones since they didn’t really catch my eye. Since it’s a broad topic, I was lucky to find some people who have put in good research and have collected it all into one place. Most of the video was made with that database.

    Box sets to me are kinda meh. Having the original volumes that came out one at a time, whether per bimonthly or once every year, the real readers and collectors bought them when they came out, as they came out. The box sets are like 2nd printings in US comic books. Great for reading but not really collectible.

    • @ShrugPod
      @ShrugPod  6 месяцев назад +3

      The printings may be different, and while I do love getting a series a volume at a time, I really do enjoy getting bonus content and its also just a better deal financially.

    • @Rorschachqp
      @Rorschachqp 6 месяцев назад +1

      @@ShrugPod They have to add some bells and whistles to it of course. As to best deals financially, that may be so for you and the majority of people out there, not for me though since I'm coming from the dealer's side and I buy a lot so I get automatic discounts and manual discounts at all the main places I shop. But, once you collect manga for maybe 10-15 years (for me, over 40 years), those manga you bought as they came out and you followed for years, those become extremely special...like bury those with me after I die special.

      @@ghoulchan7525 Oh I know what they are for. I believe the people who sell OG volumes that are part of the human story where you visit the manga shop and pick up each volume in order to buy a shiny new box set or whatever is just extremely superficial.
      For people who missed that time and are new, getting all of the volumes at once is nice. But looking at the slipcase or the free items, those things are super-low value to me. The most important part of manga is contained between the covers.
