Day 25 – Manga Procurement Squad #5

The recent unofficial collector has picked up a huge bundle for me and they are added to the collection quite nicely. Not all are from that bundle but there is a few that I got from Lifeline and the rest are either cute knick knacks, books and even sweets from the ever so amazing Mouse. Trust me, I will mention which come from where and the usual info, sadly I been a bit slow on reading but hopefully I can fix that up within the coming weeks, since I am reducing on buying the lovely mangas, unless they are a good bundle for a good price.

The newest children are:

• Mayo Chiki (Complete) Omnibus 1-3
• Mysterious Girlfriend X 1
• Genshiken (Complete) Omnibus 1-3
• Yotsuba&1-3
• Beast Master 1
• God Child (Complete) 1-8
• Alice in the Country of Clover: Cheshire Cat Waltz 1-2
• Vampire Game 1-6
• Black Clover 1
• Hana-Kimi Omnibus 1
• Pokemon 1
• Crazy Rich Asians
• 3 Lying Cats
• Basilisk

So, let’s begin with the mangas that I got from facebook.
One bundle consisted of Beast Master, God Child and Alice in the country of Clover and they are pretty good condition, minus the fact that God Child needed a wipe down due to the dirt or what not on the covers. I enjoyed reading the Alice mangas and waiting till I get Cain Saga before I can read God Child as well. Beast Master was an amazing read as well, if it was any longer, it would have been ruined but then again, there is a review about it on this blog.

Bundle two off of Facebook is basically the Omnibus collection and Yotsuba&.
I started to try and Yotsuba& but I was a little turned off from the yelling in it, but I am hoping to read the others to see if it gets better, for now they are on the backburner in regards to buying them.
Mayo Chiki, Genshiken and Mysterious Girlfriend X are a few I am quite happy with and cannot wait to read them. Mysterious only has five more volumes until it is complete while the other two are complete. They came in such amazing conditions and the price made it worth procuring, even the one I am very iffy with.

Now, the rest of manga is the ones from Lifeline.
First we have a lovely collection of Vampire Game where I am only missing, oh, 9 volumes until it is complete.

Black Clover has up to 19 volumes out and surprisingly, not a bad series and I hope to procure the rest at a later time.

Now, Hana-Kimi, I enjoyed a lot and knowing I can get about 7 more volumes to complete, what is normally a 23 volume series, is even better. I enjoy the concept of seeing a girl survive in an all-boys school just to be close to her idol amuses me to no end.

Pokemon was todays purchase and I am kind of hoping to see if it is like the original series but I don’t have the highest of hopes, but I do hope it’s entertaining either way.

The condition of the mangas are pretty amazing for mangas being left in a second-hand store and I am very happy to have them in my collection. I also cannot wait to read them after I finish Sankarea, especially Pokemon.

Now onto the last bits of this purchase/acquisition phase.

I have four new pop friends in the form of Harry Potter’s Basilisk, three Lying Cats and one of them seems to have a lot of fun eliminating a foe. I may not have read Saga, but I do enjoy the looks and concept of the Lying Cat and I only did a bit of research, just to have a little idea of what I bought.

I also recently got Crazy Rich Asians since I did watch the movie, very much enjoyed it and hope the book is just as amazing or even better than the film. It’s just a pity that I haven’t been motivated to read as much as I should have but either way, I am glad to see it join the growing ranks of novels.

The final item is the box of chocolates my lovely partner got because it was a great price and he knows that I absolutely love Cookies and Cream anything. He claims it’s for Valentines and I just glad he got me something I’d enjoy and share with him cause they are so yummy.

So that’s the huge procurement bundle I got some time ago and I am so glad to share these and the others I got because I just a sucker for a good deal. Next coming up is the mail haul, which is a few rare mangas for an even cheaper price than these ones and they were pretty damn cheap. I really need to start reviewing and less procurement stuff. Until next time, read more stuff!
