Unhauls can be tricky sometimes, but there are so many series out there that you just live and move on! Good job! I did the same with Hells paradise some time ago.
I was surprised about A Man and His Cat! I haven’t read it but it’s one you hardly ever seen unhauled! 😆 YAY for more space after unhauling these series!
@@tonireadsmanga I don't think you need to feel bad at all (not that you should ever feel bad about preferences anyway) - I've now heard a bunch of manga collectors saying they think the series is too long and dragged out and that they enjoyed the premise and the first few volumes a lot but are just not invested in it anymore.
I’ve unhauled Hell’s Paradise and I went back and forth on that one because of those covers! The covers are amazing but yeah it wasn’t one I was going to reread again. I unhauled A Man and His Cat too. I also have A-Do on the $hit shelf 😂 I just got bored with it and didn’t really care enough about the characters. I’m so surprised that there are robots in this unhaul! 😜
A-Do??? That’s crazy! lol I haven’t read volume 3 yet but I think it’s in my top 3 new series released this year. There’s actually three robot series on this list if Snowball Earth counts 🙈 Maybe I only like them if they really go deep on the robot ethics stuff 🤔
Great unhaul again! I need to do one as well (oh, the battle for space). The Country without Humans almost sounds like "Somali and the Forest Spirit" which I am also thinking about unhauling because it was never finished and the last volume feels rushed. It's beautiful, though! Additionally, I am currently fighting myself through X 1999 from Clamp - I know it's a classic and a fan favourite but the characters' reactions and behavior often don't make much sense to me (overreactions to mundane things like beeing greeted by a stranger and on the other hand not enough reaction to really traumatic scenes). I was such a big fan of Kamui when I was a teen (I had only read 3 volumes then), I feel bad for not liking it anymore. I am only continuing it because I already have all available 18 volumes (got them real cheap used), they are a fast read and I feel like I owe my young self the whole story now.
It’s really disappointing when you revisit a series and you don’t feel the same way about it anymore. I’ve had that happen a few times unfortunately, and I ultimately ended up unhauling those series.
The bigger or mostly complete sets like Hell’s Paradise I’ll put up on eBay. For everything else it pretty much depends on how lazy I get, but they usually are either brought to Half Price Books or donated to my local library. I’ve used the mangaswap subreddit many times as well but that’s only if I’m really motivated lol
I surprised myself by unhauling King in Limbo. I finished it and realized I would never reread it! I also unhauled The Country Without Humans-I collected 1-5 without reading it thinking I’d love it, and the last three volumes were a slog to finish. But now other people can read these volumes! And I have space.
I’m planning on finishing King in Limbo before the end of the month. I was aware of the potential pacing issues when I read the first omnibus but I’m hoping the rest of the series somehow holds up for me 🤞
I knew you were going to say A Man and His Cat before you even said it. You've been pretty meh about the more recent volumes whenever you've mentioned them. Hell's Paradise is one of those series I bought early on in my manga reading journey just cause people raved about it but the more manga I read and realized what I enjoyed I could tell it wasn't going to be for me so I sold it off before even reading a volume.
I feel like I’ve been really struggling with so many slice of life series lately and I might need to just stop reading the genre altogether. Thankfully this unhaul helped me finally get rid of a few that I probably should have dropped months ago.
I have also unhauled Snowball Earth too actually! I liked the concept but I think for me it was trying to be too comedic given its premise (and also the comedy wasn't hitting for me personally as well) which is a shame because I really like mecha stories and was hoping to like this one too
I love unhaul videos lol, it forces me to realize that I desperately need one too
They’re a lot more fun than hauls in my opinion, both to watch and to make.

Yep, I’d much rather have more space for series I love.

I feel like such a grinch when it comes to that series lol. I try not to nitpick and just enjoy the cute cats but I can’t help it 😭

Personally I like it and don't mind it going on forever but to be fair there's not a lot of plot in it 😅

The Battle for space is indeed a huge problem when collecting. Great video Toni !
Having some extra shelf space for new volumes is so relieving. Thanks for watching!
Toni posting an unhaul? Time to polish the pitch fork
That pitchfork must be so shiny by now
@@tonireadsmanga it’s sparkling 😂
Great video, what do you do with the unhaul manga?

What is space?
It’s a myth I think

Gotya support the manga unhaul🎉. However I wish your reasons were more divise....you know, cause of the fun 😂
No rage or hatred this time 😔
❤❤❤
What do you do with your manga once you unhaul them?
Sell them on eBay, donate them to my library, or give them to friends.

Yes, the attempt at comedy was definitely an issue for me, as well as the pacing.
