Some great selections as always Omar. Fun (albeit kind of insane) story about the Pandora Hearts box set: when I worked at a particular large bookstore chain for many years, we got several of them in one day. Somehow, our system didn't properly "recognize" them at their retail price (at least for a few hours), and instead said it was a "bargain book." Being the bibliophiles we are, a bunch of us snagged them immediately and explained to our head cashier (and managers, who also snagged some) the situation. Somehow managed to get mine for about $7-10. Still the craziest buy I've been able to get at ANY of the retail jobs I worked at.
It's not my favorite manga ever (still like it a lot though) but my favorite box set for manga is Akira - beautiful, well made box. Love how it opens up and how well made it is.
Real quick correction Omar, earlier this year Yen Press did announce a Toilet Bound Hanako Kun second box set that’s releasing in October called The Second Stall. Also Delicious in Dungeon is getting a complete series box set and it looks to have the same care and attention that Toilet Bound Hanako Kun has too.
I have the following boxes: Dragon Ball Dragon Ball Z Alita Battle Angel Ghost in the Shell In my wish list: Nausicaa Akira Zelda: Twilight Princess (coming 09/2024) Afro Samurai
As always thanks so much Omar ! I had flashbacks to the hard days of lock downs and zero supply inventory I unfortunately paid $300 for Dragon Ball and Dragonball Z years later things "normalize " don't quote me but honestly I got scared away from One Piece altogether the 2nd or 3rd one was selling for $700 and right there it ended for me . I have some of the others you reviewed the film version of James Cameron's Battle Angel Alita I mean it's heavenly perfection one of my favorite dystopian sci-fi films ever that says a lot as I have very high standards when it comes to sci-fi films no matter what .
I have the Rosario Vampire and Claymore Boxsets. I probably would have gotten the Akira boxset if I didn't already have the 6 volumes. The other boxsets look good, but I would probably only get them if they had a huge discount
Do you think there is a chance that Dragonball/Z could be released in a deluxe format in the future? The hope of a nice big hardcover collection is the only thing holding me back from buying the box set.
There’s always hope. People have been pushing for a premium release of DB for a long time, especially one that’s fully uncensored (restoring middle fingers, swearing, and the name Mr. Satan) and a revised script adaptation that wasn’t written by a pedophile. As someone who’s old copies are falling apart it’d be really nice to have a more archival edition.
@@musicfighter282 I forgot to mention the “localization” and censorship, but that is also a big part of what’s holding me back from buying the box set.
100k subscribers! Congratulations
CONGRATS ON 100K!!!!
Love it! Can’t wait for your most wanted box sets/deluxe hard covers

Damn, that's no bargain, that's a steal! But honestly I would do the same, it looks BEAUTIFUL
Starting with Claymore, started hella strong!! Great video

Congrats on 100K 🔥
Yeah, I love box sets. I'm on the hunt to get some rare box sets currently. I just love how they look and they save me precious shelf space too!
Congratulations for 100K subscribers! Thank for all the videos!
100k congratulations 🎉
Would love to see a top 10 manga hardcovers from you Omar

Based purely on story you gotta have Death Note and FMA in any manga box set list
I hate that unflipped Akira is locked to this boxset, but I can’t deny what an incredible package it is.
For Box Sets I have Naruto Box set 1-3, Bleach Box set 1-3, One Piece Box set 1-4, Dragon Ball Z and Full Metal Alchemist.
i only have one box set and its claymore and its excellent.
I have the following boxes:
Dragon Ball
Dragon Ball Z
Alita Battle Angel
Ghost in the Shell
In my wish list:
Nausicaa
Akira
Zelda: Twilight Princess (coming 09/2024)
Afro Samurai
nice 100k keep going

Same thing happened with my Zelda boxset! Replacing the battery was very stressful but not actually difficult 😅
I always end up collecting a series then having the box sets announced for them
I have the Rosario Vampire and Claymore Boxsets. I probably would have gotten the Akira boxset if I didn't already have the 6 volumes. The other boxsets look good, but I would probably only get them if they had a huge discount
Do you think they'll ever release a Slam Dunk box set?
Possibly now its vagabond deluxe
No doubt, if Vagabond Deluxe is successful I wouldn't be surprised that they'd make either a Box set or a Deluxe Edition
When i got more money i want dragon ball box set! Vegerot translation tho
Im so between bakuman box set and alita box set they both are really good but that hardcover attracts me more i feel like
Looking forward to picking up dragon ball z box set
Thank you
Me before the video: "It better have Akira, and it better have Nausicaa..."
Wow they really did it
The original ending of Alita doesn't flow into the rest of the story or did I misunderstand?
100,000!! 🎉🥳
When I watch anime and read manga,the characters they look like cat and dog and I called it meow meow and woof woof.
#1 fave box set = A Silent Voice
My favorite anime movie
100k yeeeey
