I've never made a video like this before, so please leave feedback if you could! :D (also let me know what manga you've gotten lately because I'm nosey)
My most recent manga purchase was 1 to 13 of dr stone for a steal at only 45 for the lot posted was so delighted to get it as I wanted to read it so bad but the only volume missing was volume 2 so I have to pick it up soon and binge read on a weekend off
@@AtrociousJake I’m in Ireland so manga is not very common in my city so I’ll have to pick it up online or when I get to a forbidden planet next I’d love to use right stuff but it’s so expensive to import at the moment
In my country, buying original manga is quite expensive as there are almost no shops like these where I can go and pick it up physically (apart from 1 or 2 which have a very little collection). Mostly I have to order through third party online pages which is a pain as they charge more than the original price. Still struggling and collecting ;( Anyway it was nice to see you go in Barnes & Noble shops and pick up what comes in your mind. And I can totally relate where you buy more even though you vowed not to buy more than one xD
Thank you so much for the kind words!! Hopefully more third-party sellers continue to become more popular and keep prices low, there's so many people that leave comments or DM me how they struggle getting manga where they live :(
@@DemoGuy6069 I see. I'm from India and it's pretty much the same condition here but I do see it improving as years goes by and anime fanbase increases here.
Loved this adventure of yours haha. I also like to go on each and every bookstore that its on my way. It would be awesome if on the last seconds of the video there was a short video of all you purchased. But great content.
I super super considered doing a vast overview at the end, but I eventually said no to it because the video was already 20+ minutes & the May monthly manga haul video is coming in a couple days LOL. I'll include them next time, thank you for the input & support
I enjoyed watching this video and your finds! I can't afford any new manga this month. So instead im going to read a few volumes I impulsively bought and decide if I want to keep them. One is Cat Paradise, and the other is Corpse Party.
I'll have to give Catch These Hands a shot. I *LOVED* Adachi & Shimamura and it's surprisingly difficult to find *good* yuri/shoujo ai. Aaaaaaaaaaaaand Mizuno and Chayama now, too, apparently.
After a little bit of research this AM, Mizuno and Chayama is a omnibus adaptation of the two-volume series. It looks to have a lot of deep discussions so it has a much more serious tone compared to Catch These Hands / Adachi & Shimamura
I recently ended up buyin a lot of manga online, got all of Chainsaw man up to volume 11 and other stuff. Anyway, just wanted to say I've been watching videos about manga and stumbled upon yours and really enjoyed it. It's a very fun idea for a video and I mean a nice way to pass the time during a work trip. Also I might check out "Love me for Who I am," I never heard of it before but it sounds good. I'll check out more of your videos too tho, good stuff!
The only thing thats missing is having a montage of you driving 2x video speed with that one part in うずまき - machine girl extended playing in the background.
I just picked up the first 3 volumes of fire punch today at newbury comics and now this video was recommended to me, and I got Look Back recently. First video I’ve seen from you great video so far, definitely got a new sub!
I will always recommend land of the lustrous if you haven’t read it. It’s easily the best manga I’ve ever read and it’s really underrated. The last volume drops this month too
I have been trying to find a full collection of high-quality Fullmetal alchemist manga and it’s hard to find an entire set I don’t want to get an incomplete set up at that and trying to find physical copies of Haikyu at least the specific ones that I need is proving harder than I thought
gosh this is such a tough answer. I think I'd have to go with the DanMachi spinoff Sword Oratoria! DanMachi was the first anime I fell in love with, & me finding out that there was a spinoff book series (100% surprise) that was canon & ran alongside the main story has been so close to my heart.
I haven't seen the anime (trying to read the LNs first) but holy crap I've really enjoyed COTE. I just wish 4.5 existed... it's the only one I'm missing LOL
What are the odds that the 4 barnes and nobles is my local b&n. If that’s the one I believe it is that area actually has 4 nearby. Either that or it looks exactly like the one near my 😂 Edit: that’s is definitely my local b&n. Columbus has a lot of great places to find manga. We’ve got like 4 1/2 barnes and nobles, the bookloft is insane, and we’ve also got the laughing ogre which is a dedicated comic/manga store in UA.
I live in sweden and unfurtunately there aint any bookstores that sells manga… I really hate cuz i would like to go to bookstores and see manga instead of buying them online
why are all these so much better stocked than my local one like they had vol 7, 13, and 20 Naruto to give you a good idea and my B n' N has a bell tower so looks can be deceiving
cool style of video, but maybe do us all a favor and find a way to set up your phone/camera in your car so its stable and not shaking all over the place. Never a fan of seeing that.

So awesome I'm a manga reader and anime lover and I'm 61 yrs old lol.right now I'm in to skip beat and can't find 3 I need anywhere love your video
I feel like volumes three’s are usually so difficult 😭 I hope you find it soon!
Really fun idea to make the work trip much more interesting and worth the drive. Enjoyed watching!
thank you~!! it was really crazy to see all the different types of stores along the way
"Love me who I am"
I never heard of thar book ...but man I show as heck want to read it now
It’s very nice to read 🥹 only 5 volumes in the series so not too long either!!

I’ve heard of Corpse Party!! You’ll have to let me know how it is 👀
I see a fellow content creator talking about Takagi-san & Land of the lustrous, I give a thumbs up!
I absolutely LOVE Tagaki-san & have heard so many good things about Land of the Lustrous! Just gotta find those middle volumes F
Yessss Land of the Lustrous ♡♡♡ my favorite manga

ty for taking me on a trip to 8 barnes and nobles stores in the U.S. Put some of the mangas in tbr from your vid^^
I volunteer as tribute to spend lots of money & time for a quick dopamine rush. Hope you enjoy the manga!!
this is a fun video, thanks for pointing out magus of the library, looks rad
Thank you!! First time doing a vlog style manga trip. It looks SO gorgeous from what I’ve seen on Twitter
I just picked up the first 3 volumes of fire punch today at newbury comics and now this video was recommended to me, and I got Look Back recently. First video I’ve seen from you great video so far, definitely got a new sub!
I see we got a DanMachi Fan i love it :)
My favorite all-time series 🔥 I just love Bell Cranel as an MC way too much
i love barnes and noble i would live there if i could, i went last week, i can't go to barnes and noble as often as i would like
I love the store too, & I also can’t go that often 😭 where I actually live is an hour from the nearest store, so I can only go on trips when I pass by
4:43 "Oh, look"
"Ah, actually no..."
"...maybe just a peek?"
😂
It was a journey that’s for sure LOL
You’re not the only one I collect books to
I will always recommend land of the lustrous if you haven’t read it. It’s easily the best manga I’ve ever read and it’s really underrated. The last volume drops this month too
I’m really to finish reading soon 👀
@@AtrociousJake from what I’ve heard this last volume is REALLY emotional. All anyone has told me after that is “Phos did nothing wrong”
I have been trying to find a full collection of high-quality Fullmetal alchemist manga and it’s hard to find an entire set I don’t want to get an incomplete set up at that and trying to find physical copies of Haikyu at least the specific ones that I need is proving harder than I thought
Haikyu is for sure getting more sparce by the day.
For high-quality FMA, go either for the Deluxe editions I show in the video or get the box set!
lol Barnes & Noble #3 is the one I used to walk to after school. Just graduated tho, good memories
I wish I had one in walking distance, but my wallet is probably happy that I don’t.. 😂
Underrated manga/anime channel of the week
thank you very much! I just like talking about anime / manga :')
please make this a series i would love to watch it
I travel a lot for work so I could totally make more of these 🫡
@@AtrociousJake looking forward to it :)
Same here!
I just spent about 100$ at Barnes on Friday half manga half comic/graphic novels
It’s **so easy** to spend money there… & it’s always “money well spent” 😂
#5 looks like the one in idaho
Maybe soon I'll have to travel to Idaho for the sole purpose of seeing this B&N LOL
looks like the millcreek barnes and noble
My dream is for land of the lustrous to have a season 2. What's your favourite light novel series?
gosh this is such a tough answer. I think I'd have to go with the DanMachi spinoff Sword Oratoria! DanMachi was the first anime I fell in love with, & me finding out that there was a spinoff book series (100% surprise) that was canon & ran alongside the main story has been so close to my heart.
Yessssss
I need another work trip 😭😂
Ah, Mushoku tensei and classroom of the elite. A man of class I see
I haven't seen the anime (trying to read the LNs first) but holy crap I've really enjoyed COTE. I just wish 4.5 existed... it's the only one I'm missing LOL

that's insane!!! I 100% wouldn't mind taking a job in ohio because that's where almost all the stores in this video are from LMAO. It was super nice
I really want this guy to be my best friend
Thank you so much, BESTO FRIENDO!
I think Fire Punch recently got reprinted. I’ve started seeing it all over the place
Also I think I want to do something like this it seems pretty fun.
I agree, I'm seeing a lot more people have Fire Punch in their hauls. Love seeing more people pick up Fujimoto work!
I live in sweden and unfurtunately there aint any bookstores that sells manga… I really hate cuz i would like to go to bookstores and see manga instead of buying them online
Dang 😭 hopefully with anime becoming more mainstream at least one or two start holding manga.
why are all these so much better stocked than my local one like they had vol 7, 13, and 20 Naruto to give you a good idea and my B n' N has a bell tower so looks can be deceiving
Most of these stores are in Ohio, & let me tell you they’re 10000% better than in Kentucky where I live 😭
I broke my only rule 😂
I mean like CMON all I had to do was just pick **one**
You can't pick just *one*
@@taylorgilson2075 RIGHT?
This animes getting an anime adaptation
Which one? 👀
What are all the volumes you got
I show them all in the video 😂
please PLEASE if you keep filming these types of videos, get a camera that won't blur every time it moves around books
LMAO I’ve started saving a bit per month now with this new promotion so I don’t have to use my iphone 💀
@@AtrociousJake YES IM SO HAPPY WOOHOOO😁😆
@@wayne.mccuiiough this is my first more vlog-style video so I need to do more research on good options 🫣
@@AtrociousJake Be sure to star me if you have any future videos on new equipment 🤣I'll be one of those "people who motivated me to upgrade my camera"
"Don't make a ton of money", dude you're American, you guys make 1 and 1/3 manga volumes per hour. And that's your minimum wage.
- A single VIZ Media volume of One Piece is $9.99 USD.
- Minimum wage where I live in the US is $7.25 USD / hour
?????
@@AtrociousJake huh, I thought US minimum wage was 13
It varies state-by-state. California is $14 USD / hour but also a salary of $50,000 USD / year is NOT a livable income in California it’s so expensive

No, don’t move to Ohio. Just dont
LOL if only I could just teleport. Why haven’t we figured that out in 2023
Really enjoyed the trip mann! plus I feel you on self-control in manga (and statue) buying lol🧃
Thank you!! With so many books it’s near impossible to get just one LOL
