About
All of the books in this haul are either from Amazon or my local bookstore. Two of the manga are pre-owned purchases. Everything else is new.
Don’t mind the purple dot. My camera app just has that randomly now.
Comics
Avatar: The Last Airbender: The Promise
From what I can tell, this is the second omnibus in the recommended reading order. This is the library edition. There’s another version of the omnibus, but it looks like it is paperback only. This one is hardcover, and the description implies it has more content than the other version. After getting this one, I now have one through three.
What is it?
A comic omnibus of The Promise that continues the story from the TV show Avatar: The Last Airbender.
Manga
Black Cat, Vol. 20
These are out of print and tend to be expensive, so it’s a slow journey completing my collection. I’m grabbing whichever volumes I can find at a decent price, and in decent condition, whenever I find them. This volume puts me at three left. I almost have them all!
What is it?
An action adventure starring an ex-assassin gunman turned bounty hunter, and supernatural powers.
Inuyasha VIZBig Edition, Vol. 4
I’ve already read the Inuyasha manga, but I’ve never had my own physical copies. I’m working on that with these editions. It’s not a high priority, though, so I won’t be getting them often. This puts me at approximately twelve volumes out of fifty-six. Each VIZBig volume contains three standard volumes.
What is it?
A Japanese time travel adventure romance with demons.
My Happy marriage, Vol. 2
I read and reviewed volume one of this manga already. It appears to be releasing rather slowly compared to the norm. Both the light novel and manga currently only have a few volumes each in English, but I highly recommend trying the series in whichever format you prefer. It’s very good. I just hope volume two holds up. I’m not sure when I’ll get around to reading this volume, yet.
What is it?
A Cinderella inspired historical romance with paranormal aspects.
Noragami Omnibus, Vol. 5 (volumes 13-15)
I’m getting these as they release, and I have plenty to get started on whenever I feel like it. It’s just a matter of fitting them in. I have no idea when that will be, but they are on my long list of things to get to.
What is it?
An urban fantasy focused around gods and the spirit world.
Skip Beat! Vol. 48
I’m up to date on my collection for this series. It’s in my pile of things to read in the near-ish future, and I will be keeping up on purchasing the latest volumes as they come out. I’m excited to catch up on reading these. This series is one of my favorite shojo manga.
What is it?
A revenge showbiz story with comedy and romance.
Tail of the Moon, Vol. 14
One more volume after this one and my collection for the series will be complete. Once I have them all, I will add it to my read soon pile.
What is it?
A romance story about an incompetent ninja girl sent to woo Lord Hanzo.
