Great video! The way you show and talk about volumes (with minimum to no spoilers too for your hauls which has been very appreciated) is so refreshing, helpful, and nice to listen to. I look forward to seeing more hauls, reviews, and more! Also to chime in briefly, I love Snow White with the Red Hair and though I haven’t gotten far enough to see more of the political side which I’ve heard of, I definitely think you should consider trying to get your daughters back into it to see if now their opinion on it could change.
Aww thank you so much for your encouragement and feedback! I will see if I can convince my daughters to try Snow white again and will keep everyone posted.
As soon as I saw the reprints for Real, no joke I immediately bought all the volumes for the same reasons described in the video. I was sitting in my car with my credit card out ordering the all lol
All I picked up was the sixth volume of Mo Dao Zu Shi/Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation manhua/comic and the art book/photo book for The Untamed (the drama series that’s available on Netflix). Great haul and video as well.
I think if your daughters found Snow White with the Red Hair boring, then I think they'd like Yona of the Dawn instead. I also got bored with Snow White, despite being much older because the plot is pretty slow moving and there's a lot of dialogue heavy chapters while I feel like Yona is easier on that regard.
Oldest daughter is currently caught up with Yona and absolutely loves the series. She was sad to hear that the story is on its final arc but she agreed that she could see the story wrapping up.
For Snow White with the Red Hair, I loved the series personally in the beginning but lately within the last several volumes they've been less about the romance and more about the politics in the characters world. In the beginning, it was heavily focused on Shirayuki and Zen's relationship and their friendship with Kiki, Mitsuhide, and Obi which was great. I loved them but within the last several volumes the group of characters I had fallen in love with has been separated for one reason or another. Which I personally find frustrating cause I want these characters to be together and interact but I just keep getting little bits of crumbs lately of their interactions and that's it. I came into this series expecting friendship, romance, and some action. Not it's current hyper fixation on politics and world building and throwing in new characters I don't care about. I wouldn't mind the additional focus on politics was done sprinkles or short bouts but it hasn't. Instead it's just a constant stream of politics from one situation to another. Or at least that's how it felt to me lately. The hyper focus on politics and action the series seemed to have taken had caught me by surprise and so I haven't really enjoyed it as much as before. Especially since, I find politics to be kind of boring. Or at least, I haven't found their world's politics interesting. Although the only series' politics I have been able to find interesting is Bookworm so I'm also picky when it comes to that. But ya, can't really say I'm surprised your daughters got bored of it.
I feel the same way, never been a huge fan in love with the series but I found it enjoyable at the start but the last half a dozen volumes or so have felt like a bit of a slog for me to read, not ready to drop it just yet but it has definitely lost my interest.
Just realized I got a response to this comment oops. Personally I plan to take a break from the series and focus on other series I enjoy more. But at some point I might revisit it. I love it too much to drop it completely yet.

That is awesome! Glad you were able to pick up the series. I’m already seeing several volumes out of stock again
Hey man, love the Morgana plush!!!
Aww thanks! I picked it up at the Atlus store
BECK is a 10/10 music series for me if you are looking for a new music series, it's OOP and was never fully printed in english though.
It would take a miracle for Beck to be fully brought over in English. Luckily miracles do happen from time to time.
All I picked up was the sixth volume of Mo Dao Zu Shi/Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation manhua/comic and the art book/photo book for The Untamed (the drama series that’s available on Netflix). Great haul and video as well.
Thank you! Always appreciate your thoughts and learning what you are buying.
I just read vol 1 of Omniscient Viewer and absolutely loved it. It’s definitely my kind of series.
So happy to hear that! Volume one set a high bar and I have only seen each other volume continue to improve the series

Wow! Thank you so much for sharing your experience. Would others in the community be willing to chime in on their experience with Red Hair as well?
