It probably does, but I would rather want to bring attention to the fact that the Part 4 Manga is coming out next month!
Loved what you saw and want to continue in the manga from where the anime left off? Start reading from page 11 of Chapter 26 though I'd recommended reading it from the beginning. The art alone is more than worth your time.
If you'd like to support the manga's official release in the west, you can preorder both Volumes 1 and 2 on Amazon.
Got rivers of money flowing out of your pockets and want to support the show more directly in the hopes of a second season a couple years down the line? Consider buying the two Japanese BD Boxes Here and Here. No, they don't come with English subtitles unfortunately.
All in all that was a phenomenal finale. Every aspect was wonderfully handled. You could feel the teams' passion not just in this episode, but in the whole project. You could tell they really wanted Made in Abyss to succeed as an anime and I'd say it has.
And you're sure that's all of them?

Yeah. They started reprinting this and the SMW one a few years ago. Amazon has it and I saw it on a shelf at B&N not too long ago.
If people want to experience Miyazaki's best work by a fucking mile:

My all time favourite manga/comic series
English version Amazon links(keep in mind that the anime covers books 1,2,3 and 5):
Here you go
Great idea. One Piece isn't the world's best selling manga for nothing.
I recommend using the manga box sets for your read through. They come in stylish boxes that are easy to organize, have a few extras like bonus manga and posters and stuff and gives you 23 volumes at a time for cheap.

Puck was first introduced on page 6 of the first chapter of the manga and he's pretty integral to the story. There's even at least one joke that I can recall about how the manga couldn't continue without him because it would be too dark. I don't know how the anime handles him since I have never watched it but I can't imagine they completely changed his character. It's probably just hampered by horrible animation, direction, and sound design, just like the rest of the anime. Maybe they changed some dialogue and plot-points as well, I wouldn't know.
Honestly I would suggest just reading the entire manga from the start if you have never done so before. All of the adaptations including the original one from the nineties have take liberties with the plot in order to deal with constraints imposed by the adaptation. You can read it for free illegally online or purchase the officially licensed version published by Dark Horse.
Part 4 is coming out finally.

Additionally, here's an afterword from the first novel by the author:
> Since I began entering writing contests with prize money involved, I've never been able to stop thinking about winning the grand prize.
Then, I think about using the prize money to buy stocks, increasing my investment, and pretty soon I'm daydreaming about ruling the world with my vast wealth.
> Lately I've made enough money that I can order an extra-large bowl of soba from the soba stand without worrying about it.
> My name is Isuna Hasekura.
> Recently winning the silver medal of the 12th Dengeki Shosetsu Prize is an honor roughly equivalent to winning the moon in the sky. I couldn't believe it. I had three different dreams in which I got a phone call that they'd mixed me up with somebody else.
> When I started editing the manuscript, I had two dreams that I'd missed the deadline.
> I have no idea how many times I dreamed that I was wealthy enough to rule the world.
> In fact, as I write this afterword, I'm wondering even now whether this is a dream or reality.
> To the pre-readers, editors, and prize selection committee members that opened the door to this world of dreams, I give my most humble thanks. Also to the people at the prize-acceptance party who raised their voices in support; and most especially to Mitsutaka Yuki-sensei, who gave me a silver wolf accessory in connection with the Spice and Wolf title, I want to say thank you so much. The little silver wolf is even now enshrined by my computer.
> I must also thank Ju Asakura-sensei for the gorgeous illustrations. They captured my characters perfectly. I hope my thanks are as great as my surprise at seeing them.
> To all the people, things, and events responsible for putting me in the position I'm in today: Thank you so much.
> It is my intention to put forth every effort to ensure that I never wake from this fleeting dream.
> —Isuna Hasekura
Enjoy what I've done so far? I'm only here because I like the series so much. Go support the creator!
One of the best sites to get Berserk
Yes, the one and only Hayao Miyazaki. That grumpy old 'animu is a mistake' guy. Also made some of the best animated film classics, from the action-packed Mononoke Hime to the adorable My Neighbour Totoro.
Now on to the series itself. A warning, the series is not in Batoto, so you can go buy the absolutely excellent box edition for Nausicaa here which I can personally vouch, and fully recommend. If not, sail the seven seas, which I don't really recommend. Anyways.
This series itself is chosen because there are a plethora of things to discuss. From the unique artstyle, to it's steampunk setting, to it's messianic main character. That and Book Club has done way too many SoLs.
Nausicaa has some of my favorite war scenes throughout all the manga world. I've read Kingdom, Vinland Saga, Bokko, some of the big name war series in the manga world and there's something about the composition of the war scenes in Nausicaa that makes it feel more visceral than most. Definite must read if you're a fan of war scenes.
Another interesting thought is the relevancy of the message contained in the series to our current times. Protecting the environment. If you watched at least 2 of Miyazaki's works, you'll know that he is a big enviroment buff. Just look at the details in which he draws the flora and fauna in any of his series.
Also thank Nausicaa. From his interviews it appears that without Nausicaa to channel his grudge on the destruction of the environment, we wouldn't get cute, fluffy series ala Totoro and Ponyo.
Quoted from Wikipedia:
"He also noted that his continued struggle with the subject matter in the ongoing development of the Nausicaä manga allowed him to create different, lighter, films than he would have been able to make without Nausicaä providing an outlet for his more serious thoughts throughout the period of its creation"
Last thing to note, the anime adaptation is a must-watch classic, but only covers 1/3 of the manga.
Personal thanks to /u/motogmxposed for the Aria recommendation last month! Great choice right there, sorry for having to forgot to credit you last month.
This book recently got a rerelease.

Well, February of last year... so relatively recently.
They sell a box set, here it is on Amazon for $135 but generally yeah like 10 dollars a volume for Manga is right its expensive especially for a long series with lots of volumes
I just started on the manga. Been looking forward to it for ages and finally have the time. Quite heavy though ;)
I got this https://www.amazon.co.uk/NAUSICAA-VALLEY-WIND-BOX-SET/dp/1421550644/ref=sr_1_1?crid=5MFEMXF3N8XH&keywords=nausicaa+of+the+valley+of+the+wind&qid=1558432521&s=books&sprefix=nausi%2Caps%2C165&sr=1-1
That's cool. For others considering the same thing I saw a deal on Twitter the other day that had the first 23 volume "East Blue" Box Set preorder on sale for $119.27. That's a pretty good deal. Amazon Link.
I started my collection 2 years ago and I now own all the volumes. Dont buy them 1 by one. You will end up paying to much.
Get those:
You will find it way cheaper and you get the exact same thing with an extra book in each box and more stuff.
I got the 3 box sets and then bough the volumes from there as they get out. Individually they go around 9$ each. Wich would cost you around 630$ if you buy the first 70 volumes. With the box sets, It'll be around 300-350$.
InStockTrades (my preference due to better packaging, if you spend $50 you get free shipping) or Amazon.
It was originally serialized in Nintendo Power. The graphic novel was just reprinted last year.
Haha. Well the series does that to you.
Well the next batch of books are going to be released in a second box set on Nov. 4 with volumes 24-46.
Amazon Link
Trying to think of other things you can do to stall him haha. There's the anime collection sets which contains seasons, and a couple of movies out in English (The Desert Princess and the Pirates - Adventures in Alabasta , Strong World, and upcoming Film Z). After he finishes the books, the Desert Princess one should be alright and I say refrain from purchasing Strong World until you manage to get the second box set. The film is set after the events the volumes contain in that box set. There are a couple of One Piece games out like the recent Unlimited World Red, although it might be huge spoilers as he isn't caught up all the way. Model Collections of the One Piece pirate ships like the Going Merry are also available.
I just bought this on Amazon for $35!
I highly recommend this version. It's huge but very cheap and well made.

>I am looking for an english Dragon Ball Vol. 1 manga that is not censored.
You're looking for the 3-in-1s. So far, this release is as uncensored as it gets. If you order this, and you receive a censored release, you received a misprint, and should get your money back.
>what is the quintessential english version of the manga?
There really isn't one.
Translation-wise, the official translation by VIZ is as close as it gets.
They're a little quirky at times, but it's a good translation overall.
In Japan, the book is just called Dragonball/ドラゴンボール. In the anime, (don't know if you're from the U.S. or not) Dragonball is split into two. Dragonball and Dragonball Z. It's to make it more convenient, in my opinion, makes it more confusing lol.
Dragonball (when the main character is young) and Dragonball Z (when the main character is an adult and has a kid), the more popular title. Dragonball is Volumes 1-16, Dragonball Z is 1-26.
Dragonball is known for its tournaments and raunchy humor, and Dragonball Z is known for beating the shit out of aliens and cyborgs without spoiling too much.
The manga (basically a Japanese comic book) goes by faster, the anime if you'd like to see extra stuff (filler--extra detail--etc.) and want to see it animated. I recommend Dragon Ball (Z) Kai because it cuts out (most) unnecessary fluff. In other words, goes by wayyyy quicker. There are many options for both the manga and anime.
For example there's the:
Manga
There are more released in the U.S. and everywhere else. Check Amazon to see which version you prefer. They're all slightly different. Almost all are censored in some way, besides the Japanese version I think.
Anime
This show is dubbed in so many different languages around the world, oh I can't begin to tell you. Spanish dub, German dub, Korean dub, Malaysian dub (looool), etc.
I also recommend starting with Dragonball, then going on to Z, since that's chronological order.
When you are done, you can go watch the new Battle of Gods movie, and then the Resurrection F one. If you'd rather watch it in episode format there's a new show that recently came out called Dragon Ball Super be warned, it's lower in quality (but you'll have to find ways to watch it on your own--or PM me :P).
Sorry if this is a jumbled mess. I'll try to fix it. I've never added so many asterisks to anything in my life.
Hope you enjoy it~

Spice and Wolf! (II)
I even have the first novel!
I was late last time on this thread, never again.
If you saw the movie Edge of Tomorrow, please read the manga, All You Need is Kill, to do the story justice. Manga will take you less than 4 hours to read.
To those of you who read it, thoughts? I just finished my second read a couple weeks ago.
It’s the back page of a two volume set of the Nausicaä manga that I bought myself for my birthday like two years ago.
https://www.amazon.com/Nausicaä-Valley-Wind-Box-Set/dp/1421550644
My girlfriend got me the Nausicaa manga collection . (vol 1 & 2).
Absolutely love it!

if you are interested
Boxed set: http://www.amazon.com/Nausica%C3%A4-Valley-Wind-Box-Set/dp/1421550644/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1457228263&sr=8-2&keywords=nausicaa+of+the+valley+of+the+wind
Individual volume 1: http://www.amazon.com/Nausicaa-Valley-Wind-Vol-1/dp/1591164087/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1457228263&sr=8-3&keywords=nausicaa+of+the+valley+of+the+wind
I have both the boxed set and the individual volumes. You can't go wrong with either. They're from Viz and the Studio Ghibli Library. They're totally unaltered, the translation's fantastic, and there's a sound effect index in the back that translates the Japanese comic sound effects ("boom" or "bang" or whatever) into anglicized versions. If my house were on fire and I could only save one thing, it would be the boxed set. It's that good.
I don't really have anything to compare it to, but I recently got the 2-volume deluxe etc edition of Nausicaa and was blown away by its quality.
Super super super nice.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1421550644/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1521432172&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=nausicaa+of+the+valley+of+the+wind+manga&dpPl=1&dpID=61ntFtaAHXL&ref=plSrch
I bought that one. I think it's the same as in op. Is fucking fantastic
Hey OP,
The best and most affordable release of the One Piece manga is the One Piece Box Sets with the first one covering volumes 1-23 of the manga and the second one covering volumes 24-46 of the manga.
Amazon has the first box set up for $98 which is a pretty good deal since MSRP is $185. I'd say get him that first then if he reads through that then go for the second one. The boxsets came out November 2012 and November 2013 respectively so keep that in mind if you want to pace him until the next set comes out.
If you want to get single volumes, I've heard Barnes and Noble have a 2 for 1 on Manga so you could check for that from time to time...
Also, on the anime side of things there are some really great premium boxsets that have been coming out, exclusive to Amazon priced at $89 MSRP with roughly 100 episodes each. The price fluctuates from $60.00 to $90 on Amazon but here's the first, second and third Treasure Chest Boxsets
There's a full color release of the entire manga over in Japan. Viz completely fucked us over by cancelling their English release. In regards to reading right to left, you get used to it very quickly. Flipping artwork is just as bad as cropping the anime.
As for whether or not the Blurays are worth it, I'd say they are. They're less than ideal, but we're probably not going to get a better product any time soon considering Funimation cancelled the amazing level sets.
You can buy the complete set for less than 150$ Amazon US||Amazon UK||Amazon JP
if don't have the money for it, try to buy at least 1 volume when you get the chance & money.. to give some support.
for your request here but i hope you use this link as a last resort.
Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card 1 currently at $5.14 (53%).
Death Note (All-in-One Edition) at $16.97 (58%). Lowest according to CamelCamelCamel.
Those were the only ones on my list.
Also, note that $5.00 on orders $20.00+ with promo code NOVBOOK18 is still happening if you have not taken advantage of that.
I just finished All you need is kill. For a quick read it contains a fascinating story. SciFi novel about a conflict taking place all over the Earth. Futuristic "Jackets", Aliens, Amazing plot device. All around great novel. It was the source material for Edge of Tomorrow and it goes without saying, but I will say it, the movie deviates a lot from the book and the book is so much better. Its about 250 pages long, so it would go well with another short book. I finished it in about 8 hours.
All You Need Is Kill https://www.amazon.com/dp/1421527618/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_mdvaCbH6SX7A5
You can get it in a big boxed 2 book set. I own it and it’s totally worth the price.
https://www.amazon.com/Nausica%C3%A4-Valley-Wind-Box-Set/dp/1421550644
I recommend this set that came out recently; I had the individual volumes but this one is very well put together.
They have already been announced and are available for preorder
Part 1 - Phantom Blood will be an omnibus of 2-in-1 volumes starting Feb 2015
Volume 1 Amazon Page
Volume 2 Amazon Page
No idea about part 2 but it has a release date of Fall 2015.
It's a great series, so I guess it all comes down to how much money you have free to use. That said where did you see it for $172 and did it come something else special because right now I'm seeing all 27 volumes for $146 on Amazon. At that price it's definitely worth it for a Berserk fan if you're not broke.
The oversized edition that is 3 volumes in 1. Here
With your eyes.
Jokes aside, Start here! :)

>Now to find somewhere to purchase the manga.
What good timing. If you wait a bit you can start with this beauty.
From our new FAQ in the sidebar (which I put many hours into!):
>##Q: What is the best way to purchase the manga?
A: There are many different ways to purchase the manga, though unfortunately, every official English release is censored in some way, shape, or form. Your best option is to purchase it digitally from Viz's website, but if you prefer a physical release, the VIZBIGs have the best paper quality, while the individual Tankōbons have the least amount of censorship. The 3-in-1s have atrocious paper quality and are just as censored as before, despite being advertised as otherwise.
I neglected to mention the Full Color releases (which are also censored), because they're incomplete and appear to be indefinitely suspended.
About 7 ounces.

Based off of the book titled "All You Need Is Kill" by Hiroshi Sakurazaka
Maybe check out some of Humanoids offerings - everything they carry is quality, just need to find something you think your dad would be interested in.
It also depends on what variation of sci-fi.
Others:
Saga
Akira
Nausicaa
Or basically anything on this list.

(Worth every penny)
Hey, congratulations on wanting to experience Dragon Ball in its best format. I'd recommend starting from Dragon Ball volume 1 and working your way through the series since that's its proper storyline progression. Unfortunately there have been a lot of English releases and re-releases with varying amounts of censorship, so it's really confusing about what's "best" to buy, and I don't think it's even possible to get the least edited versions anymore.
You should check eBay because you can get some good deals on there if you buy in bulk, and sometimes you can get single volumes for very cheap on Amazon.
tl;dr: I recommend researching! Find what's right for you. I recommend digital, but you might find a better deal if you buy in bulk. The VIZBIG would probably be what I go with if I had to buy them over again. There's a lot more I could have said about these, and a lot of political stuff about how they were advertised vs. what we got, but I hope that this at least gets you started. I'm no expert but if you want more help feel free to respond here or PM me and I'll try to answer your questions or point you to someone else who can.
The first 23 can be found here. So that's like $5 for a new volume which is a very good deal.
This will save you about $100
http://www.amazon.com/One-Piece-Box-Set-Baroque/dp/1421560747/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1404627595&sr=8-4&keywords=one+piece
and if you want to save more, you can get all the 3 volume omnibus editions. They go to chapters 28-29-30 (in October, new one comes out every 4 months). That should save you about $180 if you do this rather than individual volumes and that's not including whether you get future omnibuses as well.
http://www.amazon.com/One-Piece-East-Blue-1-2-3/dp/1421536250/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1404627805&sr=8-1&keywords=one+piece+1+2+3
To be honest, the book box sets are a better value for your dollar. The Omnibus volumes tend to have thinner, shittier paper so the volumes aren't as thick but it means that the overall quality is lessened. The only problem with the box sets is you have to wait for all the volumes to be available before you can purchase the set so you will be always behind for collection purposes. Also <100$ for ~25 volumes is a price you won't likely get even with the omnibus.

If you're interested in getting the Manga in physical format then the 155 chapters are divided in 27 books that you can either buy separately (they really shouldn't be hard to find) or get them all and 27 of them with a box and an artbook.
Otherwise you always have the option to just read it online, there are many websites around that have the scans of any manga you may possibly searching for, Claymore included.
They were taken down because you can buy them in print.

It's up to 11 now AFAIK.
There's a whole bunch of Japanese stuff that fits the bill in the light novel to anime category.
f.e.
So I'm A Spider, So What? -- translated from Japanese, becoming an animated TV series next quarter, features a giant cave under a mountain, written by a Japanese woman. (Probably? She's pseudonymous.)
Wolf and Spice, same deal, though the author is male.
For light reads, there are All You Need Is Kill with its take on alien monster invasions and groundhog day-like time loop, and Kino no Tabi which has chapters that explore some interesting sci-fi themes.
There are also Legend of the Galactic Heroes and the original Gundam's novel adaptation, but I wouldn't say that they're fit for light reads.
Sandman by Neil Gaiman
V for Vendetta by Alan Moore
Blacksad by Juan Diaz Canales
(Contains Somewhere Within the Shadows, Arctic Nation and Red Soul)
Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind by Hayao Miyazaki

The volumes were released in english in order, I think they're up to part 3 now. They look like this . You can also pick them up from most comic book stores. I got part 1 and 2 that way.
> So i intend to finnish the 2017 version
Just don't. Watch S1 from the 90s and just read the whole manga.

Black Edition volumes feature larger, better quality pages compared to the normal volumes. There are many pages you can compare to the normal volumes that the coloring looks better.
The All-in-One Edition is the entire series in a single book. As you can expect, the book is massive.

The VizBig edition has a lot of censoring which I dislike. The English translations are extremely censored anyway but it's nice to get at least some natural content which you will get from "the white ones" or the VizMedia (their actual name). Also to let you know the VizMedia one you linked is the 17th volume of the whole story. This is the start of the story and is of the same set as the one you linked.
Our FAQ has this answered, should have checked there!
> The 3-in-1s are the least censored release, but are ongoing and currently incomplete. This release is printed on very thin, low quality paper, and does not include any of the special colored chapters.
>
> The VIZBIGs have excellent paper quality and is the only English release to include the special colored chapters, though a few were left in black & white for some reason.
>
> * The individual volumes are censored to a slightly lesser degree than the VIZBIGs, and are all in black and white.
----
> So my question is, are the Vizbigs really that bad? Is it worth giving up some less-child-friendly moments to get the better looking series?
The VIZBigs are not bad. If you're looking for a way to get the completed series, then this is the better release for you. The second best release (that is not visually censored, besides Mr. Popo's lips) would be the Full Color manga.
As long as you're happy with having a censored release, then go with the VIZBigs. If you think that you're going to be paranoid that some panels are clearly censored, then you may want to look into the 3-in-1 set - but you'll have to deal with awful paper quality.
Haha.. I edited my original comment to include asking in which direction to go with the Manga..
3 in 1, or I found on Amazon they have the 42 volumes separate too?
Starting with this one: Dragon Ball, Vol. 1 https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1569319200/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_sPHLybTH8HR3V
Do not buy that collection if you cannot read Japaneses!!! There currently is no box set for English yet (at least none I am aware of) so just buy the single volumes from amazon or your local book store. AoT is crazy popular and most book stores will have some in stock.
Examples of what you should buy:
There are 5 volume, th 6th one will be on June 4th 2019.
https://www.amazon.com/Made-Abyss-Vol-Akihito-Tukushi/dp/1626927731/
Series will show up somewhere on here when it comes out: http://www.sevenseasentertainment.com/
But Seven Seas doesn't have a way to buy directly from them, they only sell through various sites.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Rising-Shield-Hero-1/dp/1935548727
https://www.amazon.com/Tokyo-Ghoul-Complete-Box-Set/dp/1974703185/
The first english volume of part 4 actually comes out next week.
Ya
I'd say Spice & Wolf because it's a classic and The Irregular at Magic High School because it's fucking awesome.
Right here:
https://www.amazon.com/Spice-Wolf-Vol-light-novel/dp/0759531048/ref=sr_1_1
I grabbed it from ibooks, but there is a kindle version and you can get a hard copy from amazon :
http://www.amazon.com/All-You-Need-Is-Kill/dp/1421527618/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1395792464&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=all+you+need+is+kill
There is also a manga in the works.
All You Need Is Kill is nice.
Ame no Hi no Iris has robots, so that's probably sci-fi. Really good, anyway.
My favorite anime movie. It's just so immersive and endearing, and the animation really still holds up despite the age. I've seen it at least 4 times now... That opening credits sequence gets me every time.
Highly recommend you check out the manga. The movie is (loosely) based on the first 2 volumes out of 7. The manga is so expansive and epic... I stayed up many nights reading it until 4 in the morning because I couldn't stop.
Then I bought the 2-book hardcover box-set on amazon and read it a second time.
Also check out Castle in the Sky if you havent yet. It was very much influenced by Nausicaa, being made only 2 years later.
It's the hardcover manga box set :)
It's freaking fantastic! My boyfriend got me this beautiful box set for Christmas last year, I highly recommend it if you're looking to purchase the manga. I love the movie but the manga goes so much more in depth!
https://www.amazon.ca/Nausica%C3%A4-Valley-Wind-Box-Set/dp/1421550644/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1478109274&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=nausicaa+manga+box+set
That's my reaction precisely!
If you are getting the paper version, this is what you need to get:
http://www.amazon.com/Nausica%C3%A4-Valley-Wind-Box-Set/dp/1421550644/ref=pd_sim_sbs_b_1
It's printed significantly larger than the paperback version. The larger size allows you to appreciate the artwork.
Not legally but I'm sure a google search would come up with a few results :P The box set is beautiful though, http://www.amazon.co.uk/NAUSICAA-VALLEY-WIND-BOX-SET/dp/1421550644
The manga is a bit different to the movie storyline but there are similar elements. For example the movie misses out the Dorok empire which is a huge part of the manga.
As for prequel there is this short that was released: https://vimeo.com/64987176 I'm not so sure a prequel would work though. Basically it would just be a war and then people recovering from it, I like the time period Nausicaa is set at (although the manga does give a lot of details about what happened during that time)
The manga box sets are worth the money!!! Definitely pick those up if you can. They’re pretty cheap on Amazon (retail price is $185 but here they’re about $110):
One Piece Box Set: East Blue and Baroque Works, Volumes 1-23 https://www.amazon.com/dp/1421560747/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_R-VJAbR07BS9J
Also available on Amazon US and Canada
@ 6.69 per volume for one piece, anyone knows if there's a cheaper alternative somewhere online? If not I think I'll buy 1-23 from amazon @ 116 (http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/1421560747) and the rest from rightstuf (free shipping in Canada on orders over 250)
There are currently 3 box sets out. Buying all 3 will net you books 1-70. Here is a link to the first box
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1421560747/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1506565008&amp;sr=8-1&amp;pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&amp;keywords=one+piece+manga+set&amp;dpPl=1&amp;dpID=51wjTPcHRHL&amp;ref=plSrch
You will then need to buy books 71-83 to complete up to most current book or wait for box set 4, whenever that comes out (not for a while)
I have a bunch of the World of Nintendo Mario toys that I bought to make my younger self happy. I wanted Mario toys so much when I was a kid, but they didn't really exist. Now I find a new one almost ever time I go to Walmart.
I also have the original release of the Link to the Past comic by Shotaro Ishinomori that I really loved. It was so cool to find that back in the day.
Oh, and the Kirby Nendoroid is a lot of fun. I still need to get the Robobot mech to go with him.
You can from Amazon.
Vol 1
Vol 2
It's a little hard to give specific recommendations based on such a small collection - simply because it's a little difficult to discern which genres you enjoy more than others. That being said here's a little of everything:
Light Novels sind das japanische Gegenstück zu den Young Adult Romanen und an ein ähnliches Publikum gerichtet. Sie zeichnen sich durch zwei Merkmale aus: 1. sie haben Illustrationen, 1/2 (plus Cover) in Farbe, und um die 6 in Schwarz/Weiß. 2. Sie sind einfacher geschrieben, mit einfacheren Kanjis und leichterer Prosa, damit auch jüngere Japaner die Bücher ohne Probleme lesen können.
>Wo informierst du dich über Light Novels denn?
Was gerade animiert wird, ich lese selten LNs einfach nur so. Ich habe eine Art Hass-Liebe mit Light Novels, weil es zum einen sehr interessante Geschichten gibt, andererseits die meisten entweder miesgeschrieben, mies übersetzt oder beides sind. Schlimm ist es, wenn beides aufeinander trifft. Unglücklicherweise sind zudem die meisten Bücher die lizensiert werden allesamt absolut uninteressant oder "So bad, it's good" bestenfalls.
Violet Evergarden ist in dieser Hinsicht so in der Mitte. Die Serie wurde lange Zeit sehr gehypt, weil sie der erste und bisland einziger Sieger des Kyoto Animation Grand Prizes ist, und das obwohl die seit 2009 gibt. Zuvor gab es nur Honourable Mentions. Umso größer war die Entäuschung als die erste Folge der Anime-Serie rauskam. Ich habe nach ungefähr 4 Folgen begonnen das Buch zu lesen, weil zu dem Zeitpunkt nur so 2% der Anime-Serie auf der LN basierte. (Ja, die Light Novel, weil die Novelle). Insgesamt wars unterhaltsam, aber einige Aspekte fand ich einfach nur beschissen und auch als Buch wurde es der Ehre, einziger Grand Prize zu sein, nicht gerecht.
>wie kommst du dann entsprechend an das Buch?
/r/LightNovels suche "Violet Evergarden pdf/epub" Du wirst keine legale englische oder deutsche Übersetzung finden. Das ist nicht immer so, aber bei japanischen Medien trotzdem etwas womit man sich abfinden muss, es gibt nur einen Bruchteil von allem legal.
(Lizensierte) Light Novel Serien, die ich empfehlen kann: Die Haruhi Suzumiya Series (Halb-Parodie des "Oh wir sind Schüler und retten nebenbei die Welt mit Superkräften), Spice and Wolf (Mittelalterliche Romanze), The Empty Box and The Zeroth Maria (Schwer zu beschreiben, Sci-Fi mit vielen Mind Games), The Saga of Tanya the Evil (Typ nervt Gott nach seinem Tod, also lässt Gott ihn in einem Nicht!1.WK als Magierin kämfen), KonoSuba (Irrsinning komische Parodie von Japano-RPG Klischees) oder OreGaIru (Wo ein Zyniker, eine Einkönigin und eine Normale zusammen erwachsen werden) Ich sollte aufhören, sonst sitz ich hier noch den halben Tag. Sind leider alle auf Englisch, da Light Novels auf Deutsch sich auf Müll wie SAO oder Accel World beschränken, bzw. die guten Serien längst nicht mehr gedruckt werden.
Well there are volumes but unlike comic books they are 180-250~ pages each. You can order them online from here or here I am not sure what area you live in but many book stores that carry anything manga related items could also carry them.
Below includes links to the amazon page, which has identification numbers you can use for other sites, but since many of these titles share comic/manga names, it can be confusing telling the difference. Also, I think everything but Another and Baccano have a good fan translation done as of now, and he may have already read it (at least first volumes) and is not interested in a physical copy of them, so I would ask.
If he likes the idea of a game esque world (very popular right now for some reason), I would recomend Rising of the Shield Hero, Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon, and Log Horizon.
For more typical fantasy styled light novels, Spice and Wolf, Another, A certain Magical Index, No Game, No Life, The Devil Is A Part-Timer, and soon to be release Baccano.
Here is link to vol.1 on US Amazon. You should be able to find the rest from there.
Afaik, there is no electronic version of them.
I too like books with anthro characters, but there is a lack of quality in what is available. Here is a short list of posted in an earlier thread:
I would recommend looking at the reviews on flayrah. Personally, I have not found much in the way of quality furry literature, but I have read a few.
The Sacred Book of The Werewolf by Victor Pelevin. There are two kinds of furry books: those writen by furries and those that are writen by non-furries. This is one of the latter. I do not have the time to give a full review, but if you like werewolves, kitsune, eastern philosophies, Russian culture (or at least curious about it) eastern and russian folklore, and supernatural romances, you might just like (I did). Furriness - 6, Quality - 10 [I want to add that this book has very mature scenes]
Ringworld by Larry Niven. This usually shows up somewhere on the top 100 sci fi novels. However, this is another book not written by a furry, and it shows since only one character could be classified as "furry". Furriness - 4, Quality - 10
Rise of the Wolf by Curtis Jobling. I have not read much of this so far, but from what I have seen it is high fantasy. So far, I have not been impressed with the writing, which is why I haven't finished it. Furriness >5, Quality <6
In Wilder Lands by Jim Galford. Another high fantasy novel, but this one was much better written. I will be buying the sequel when comes out, for whatever it is worth. It does have a few problems, namely that many characters and the world need to be fleshed out more. Furriness - 9, Quality - 7.
Spice and Wolf by Isuna Hasekura. Yes, I know it is not exactly furry, but OP may still like it. One of the main character is a wolf "god" who takes the form a young woman, and the other is a traveling merchant. The setting is largely inspired by post dark ages Europe and is not overwhelmed with fantasy brickabrack. Furriness - 2, Quality - 8
I am going to pick up Red Sails in the Fallout tomorrow for my kindle, since the sample is holding my interest. I might also pick up Argo and Ten Thousand Miles Up. These last two books are short stories not novels.
Edit: misspelled book
http://www.amazon.com/Spice-Wolf-Vol-Isuna-Hasekura/dp/0759531048 I don't like the English covers but w/e I love the story and its the best translation
Totto-chan is a delightful, light-hearted read despite the backdrop of WWII. The publishing of the Kino no Tabi series is a bit up in the air, but I thoroughly enjoyed the first one. I highly recommend The Woman in the Dunes; it is a beautiful work. I loved the first volume of Ballad of a Shinigami. Goth is a personal favorite, but it's horror and can get a tad gory. I would encourage you to give it a try though, it has altered my point of view quite a bit.
While I have not read any, I have heard good things about Brave Story, Kazuo Ishiguro (The Remains of the Day, Never Let Me Go) and Kenzaburo Oe (The Changling). I have heard Botchan is popular in Japan.
As a tip, search for Japanese light novels. They are "light" in the sense that they are the literature equivalent of manga, often with many volumes. They were really popular a few years back, but I am not sure if they are still being published. Check out Amazon for some old Tokyopop, Seven Seas, and Yen Press books. Also, Spice and Wolf.
Based on looking at the descriptions:
Light Novel
Manga
All You Need is Kill : Amazon -- Barnes and Noble
Calling You : Amazon -- Barnes and Noble
A book: All You Need Is Kill - roughly 9k doge
It was originally a manga that got a novel version. It called “All you need is Kill” here it is on Amazon.
All You Need Is Kill https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1421527618/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_qbBQDbCY0ZHKB
Yes Emily Blunt is awesome in the film. Not normally a Tom Cruise fan but seeing his transformation as it goes along is fantastic.
This Nausicaa boxset is the nicest set of books of any type that I own. Just beautiful. And big.

There is a finished Nausicaa manga you can buy.
The Porco Rosso sequel never happened.
After retirement, he worked on a samurai manga though I don't recall it ever being published.
https://www.amazon.com/Nausicaä-Valley-Wind-Box-Set/dp/1421550644/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1549477301&amp;sr=8-2&amp;pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&amp;keywords=nausicaa&amp;dpPl=1&amp;dpID=51wF1FgwkxL&amp;ref=plSrch
Yes definitely the movie cut out a lot of the content from the manga here's a link to buy it
http://www.amazon.com/Nausicaä-Valley-Wind-Box-Set/dp/1421550644
It is indeed quite awesome. This box set is amazing, too:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/1421550644/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8
I live in the UK so went with uk-finder which was £27.70 with postage:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/1421550644/ref=tmm_hrd_new_olp_sr?ie=UTF8&amp;condition=new&amp;sr=&amp;qid=
Sorry for the late reply; this didn't come through to my inbox.
I got it from Amazon here for £30 incl. p&p. Not sure how much it would cost from American sellers though, but I would imagine it would be slightly cheaper. The listing here also has better pictures of the box set as mine were taken late last night with a really dodgy camera!
Start with either of these ones!
This edition is sturdier and slightly bigger, but a little more censored. Paper quality is very good though, and rarely you'll get light-colored pages, probably the most appealing aspects of this one.
https://www.amazon.com/Dragon-Ball-Vol-1-VIZBIG/dp/1421520591
This next edition is a more recent one. Paper is a little thinner, size is a bit smaller. However, this one benefits from being less censored, and the design is far more appealing for collectors; the illustrations on the front are each special newer pieces from Toriyama, the spine art is like the Japanese where it all makes a big picture, and most importantly, it doesn't split-off 1/3rd or the way through. This is the most consistent English release.
https://www.amazon.com/Dragon-Ball-3-1-Vol/dp/1421555646
I've never watched all of the series, so I'm biased for sure, I came to Dragon Ball from the manga when I was a kid (I'm like 2 weeks younger than Dan) and trying to watch the show is so unbelievably slow compared to the manga that I just can't get through it. I would recommend you read the manga personally. There was 42 books back when I was young, 1-16 was Dragonball, 17-42 was Z, they sell them 3 for 12$, can't go wrong with that, cheaper and faster than the Blurays, no fluff https://www.amazon.com/Dragon-Ball-3-1-Vol/dp/1421555646/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1517862383&amp;sr=8-2&amp;keywords=dragonball
Your submission has been removed for the following reason:
>This topic is addressed in our FAQ.
There are many different ways to purchase the manga, though unfortunately, every official English release is censored in some way shape or form. Censorship in Dragon Ball entails the removal of strong language, female nudity, middle fingers, and near the end, guns. Dark-skinned characters – namely Officer Black and Mr. Popo – have their large lips altered. Mr. Satan's name & Satan City are renamed Hercule and Herculopolis respectively. Violence and gore is unaffected.
Below is a list of VIZ Media's current offerings of DB/DBZ in English:

I would personally start with the beginning as you can get all of the translated versions on amazon and if it is his birthday then you could get him one of the two box sets that go for about 100$ and I would also say that one piece is pretty good for child audiances but there are some heavy themes, some mild language nothing over the F-word and a lot more blood than what the TV show has on it but it is still good for children also if you ever collect them all or want to give him something else I would suggest one of the color walks as they show off his fantastic art really well.
They are! I'm from the UK and got this off amazon. Currently the first two box sets are only £85. The second one was £130 only a couple of weeks ago. I snatched this up as soon as I noticed the price drop.
Yeah and I got in the the box set you can buy here:

I just had the shelf set up for the manga lol, so I thought it be cooler to put them on display
It pains me to link this but I think you should've have waited a few more months http://www.amazon.com/One-Piece-Box-Set-Baroque/dp/1421560747/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1375912550&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=one+piece+box+set

I don't know quite how much you are buying them for on eBay, but, if possible I think it's best to order from Amazon 1st Box Set 2nd Box Set, I bought the first two box sets for roughly £120 ( £60 - £65ish each ). Good luck!
Edit: And if you didn't know, they both come with some really good looking posters, I have pictures if need be! :)
Dragon Ball Full Color, Vol. 1 https://www.amazon.com/dp/1421565927/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_5cAaBbNTP0NKA
You could also just go to Amazon and search “Dragon Ball Full Color” and you could see all of them.
For everyone Looking for a link, Here's #1 https://www.amazon.com/Dragon-Ball-Full-Color-Vol/dp/1421565927
There's actually a pretty rad collection of the old Super Mario comics that appeared in Nintendo Power back in the 90s.
Super Mario Adventures
there is also a legend of Zelda one as well
If you liked Injustice I highly recommend the Injustice comics. I personally think they might be better than the games (granted I'm still waiting on a game of the year version of Injustice 2).
vol 1
There's a cool comic style one I had when younger here:
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past https://www.amazon.com/dp/1421575418/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_SlD.BbNX93WPE
It's basically the plot of A Link to the Past, with some extra bits in it that aren't in the game. Just a fun read. The Super Mario one that Amazon is suggesting for me to buy also was one I remember being cool too.
It's been reprinted in a collected volume:
https://www.amazon.com/Legend-Zelda-Link-Past/dp/1421575418/
so the graphic novel is love is scott pilgrum vs the world and legend of zelda link to the past
edit: secret? that a Novel idea even if it could be kinda Graphic!!
The color edition of Part 1 is actually getting an English release in early February if you are interested in it.
http://www.amazon.com/JoJos-Bizarre-Adventure-1--Phantom-Blood/dp/1421578794/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1421610586&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=jojo%27s+bizarre+adventure
Does Jump count? If so, I've been reading "Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Part V: Vento Aureo", and I just bought the first English volume of Jojonium. If not, I just bought Memoirs of a Geisha and a Tale of Two Cities the other day but haven't started reading either yet...
It would be better to spend some money and get the volume in a legal way so you can support the creator of the series. This post feels very inappropiate and disrespectful.
Not sure if it's allowed to be posted here but it doesn't seem to break any rules.
http://www.mangareader.net/claymore/1/ This is a good site to use but if you wish to have the physical copies you can buy them all here.
I got the manga box set for about $125 USD from amazon.com, which was a great deal in my opinion.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/142158316X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_TDVXCbKFH4089
Assuming shipping to your country isn’t outrageously high, then I’d suggest looking for a deal like that first if you choose to buy.
yep it's right here
https://www.amazon.com/Death-Note-All-One-Tsugumi/dp/1421597713
Hey, I got you covered. So here's my strategy: try to minimize on the rupee per page. A general single volume manga would cost around 500 bucks, for essential 200 odd pages. Kinda too much, but ok given the value added compared to a general paperback. Also, given that you are starting a collection, you will most probably want to collect all the volumes i.e. complete the series. So it should preferably have lesser volumes. Based on that I recommend these
If you're looking for manga series whose individual books contain a large number of pages, try searching "manga omnibus" or "manga all in one" on amazon. There's quite a few, and if you're willing to wait, you could wait for price drops (I recommend keepa.com to check and notify you for price drops on amazon.in)
Happy shopping, and let us know what you buy.

Seeing as you like Conan, think about buying the Colossal Conan, collecting the entire run of Kurt Busiek and Cary Nord as well as others like Eric Powell, Mike Mignola and Timothy Truman.
And there there's the fantasy comic from across the Atlantic, Thorgal by Jean Van Hamme and Grzegorz Rosinski, It's been running since the sixties, and the only change is that Van Hamme left after the story switched main protagonist. highly recommended.
In case you're not one of those people that suffer some kind of brain tumour and hate manga, Berserk is the dark fantasy manga, and it looks nothing like the stereotypical Shonen manga. You can read my warning to another user here.
Another Fantasy Manga is Drifters by Kouta/Kohta Hirano(the creator of the popular Hellsing manga). Set in a fantasy world with elves and dwarves and all that stuff, famous historical warriors are dropped in when they "died" in the real world.
After informing a bit more, it seems like Berserk is the best answer to my question. Now I wonder, whether this is the first of the English series. The release date is from 2009 while the next volumes are from 2004.
Is this 2009 release just a remake? Is it as good/the same as the original?
Thanks
Hope your day gets better.
I recommend Attack on Titan on netflix, or if you like reading, there's a Manga!
If you haven't watched Game of Thrones, DEFINITELY watch some of that.

Luckily in the UK you don't have to pay for shipping if it's from Amazon as well!

Amazon.de has the english version of Shield Hero.
https://www.amazon.de/Rising-Shield-Hero-1/dp/1935548727/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1550045691&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=9781935548720
If you are having trouble finding them what i would suggest you do is to go to Amazon.com website , find the book and search the ISBN-13 code in Amazon.de website. It will find you the english book.
The original SAO LN in Japan is way past the anime. (A good 2 seasons or so.) In English, it's been published up to the end of the first season with the first arc of the second season coming out on the 15th. (Phantom Bullet) The anime adapts through to volume 8.
The SAO: Progressive series is a re-write of the first arc and hasn't been adapted beyond a single chapter. It's a really good read for those that are interested in what SAO should originally have been. The manga version of it is a silly adaption where it tells the story from another character's perspective while focusing on comedy.
Not sure about other kinds of LNs he might like considering it's hard to get an accurate sense of taste just from the series listed. Going based off the genres, Danmachi is a really enjoyable growth adventure action series I consistently look forward to the next volume of.
A Certain Magical Index is a series I love as the story is always becoming more and more exciting with some of the best writing from an author out of many light novels. The English publication isn't past the anime yet but the anime does butcher some of the arcs so it's worth it to start from the beginning. A companion to this series would be the A Certain Scientific Railgun manga which is also very action orientated.
Tate no Yuusha is an LN series without an anime adaption that got licensed in English. It's a pretty good adventure series that he might like. It's a safe bet for something he's probably not experienced yet I think. Only 2 volumes published in English so far.

Don’t know if you have a preference but keep in mind they’re going to start releasing hardcovers in 2019
Amazon has it for $27.26: https://www.amazon.com/Berserk-Deluxe-1-Kentaro-Miura/dp/1506711987
They are supersized books with better quality paper and shit not a bad price either. the problem is only the first volume is out which has books 1,2,3, volume 2 with 4,5,6 comes out in a few months

Plus, I was referring to the initial price, not the discount.
This one is the english one.
Edit: misread your question
I looked around a bit on the internet and if I understand correctly, ordering from .de has lower to no shipping costs, while ordering from .com has high shipping costs. So if possible it might be a better idea to order from .de instead of .com.
As PMMMsvd said, this one looks like what you want (vol. 1 in English).
hopefully amazon gets hold of some of the new copies, i ve been wanting to read berserk for ages but getting it in the UK is so difficult

Attack on Titan!!!
Wow, I just fell in love with the Chroma Worsted yarn Super too expensive for the silly stuff I usually crochet, though.
To top off your order, I'm loving the shine on Nebula.
I'd love to read this manga if I were to win.
Always be a Happy Hooker!
<Me and the Devil Blues> has a black protagonist, not sure if it's been licensed though. Afro Samurai is a pretty good anime if she's willing to try that out (I don't think anyone's translated the manga). I'd have to get back to you on the college manga, cos all I can think of are high school ones. I think FMA is a really safe bet though, definitely give her that.
I think the popular buys nowadays are Tokyo Ghoul and Attack on Titan though, if you want to try those. Oh, and if she's going to Ireland, The Ancient Magus' Bride takes a lot of mythology from around that area (like Gaelic and Anglo-Saxon).
The thing I want the most from my list at the moment. It also means it's one I'll get myself anyways, sooner or later, so it's not that big of a priority. Just 8 days ago I hadn't even heard of the series. Then /u/toasthaste posted this, and I was impressed enough to check out what's that about, and got hooked.
I think it's Prime eligible, although I don't see the Prime logo under the name of the item.

I'm big into anime, reading/writing/words in general + board games. My lists reflect that somewhat ! I started reading when I was 3-4 thanks to my oldest sister, and many classmates and teachers were surprised or even disbelieving when I entered preschool already able to read. I got called a nerd since elementary but I never took it as an insult, since I really enjoyed reading and I saw it as the reason I was able to do so well in school in the first place (though referred to as a nerd, I actually was never very studious). I was also called a "walking dictionary" during junior high, which I also took as compliment!
Board games is a funny one. I always liked the classics growing up and went out of my way to learn the more "obscure" ones like backgammon and othello, but didn't know about "modern" board games until I started college, where I walked into an "English conversation club" meeting out of curiosity (they used anime characters in their posters...) . Turns out, they played board games as a way to naturally get conversation going. And it seemed to work really well, and I loved it! Though English is my second language I learned it early enough (at around 7 y/o) that I didn't gain much skill from the actual purpose of the club, but I think it definitely helped me develop socially in general, plus it was nice to interact with different international students. I came to love board games because of it and once I ended up coming back home to community college was able to continue the habit by briefly becoming a regular at a board game cafe. I'm busier these days, but have by now gathered my own small collection of board games (':

There is a box set for the first part, it is cheaper than buying the single books, $80 for 14 books seems a good price to me: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1974703185/
For the second part (Tokyo Ghoul:re) there isn't one yet, but if you wait until it finishes being released in english, a box set for it should appear

Comes out May 7 2019
I don't want to get anybody's hopes up but there is this curious listing on Amazon.
It's been up for quite a while now. I haven't seen any discussion about it but it seems to me to be a little too specific for a simple placeholder which are of course a common occurrence on Amazon otherwise. Not only does the format listing say hardcover but the description also specifies hardcover. Couple that with the price as well as the publishing company changing Manga Theory and Practice covers to match the JoJoniums and my optimistic side thinks (and hopes) that there's a good chance for the JoJoniums to continue.
Only time will tell!
Just the latest I saw this but it doesn't look like the rest
Jashin Average, unofficially.
Officially, I think one of the only ones to be completed is Spice and Wolf, which isn't isekai (I really enjoyed the anime though, I'm still working on the novels).
that would be... nice? But only popular/serialized anime would have that. At Amazon you can request books to be turned into audio books but i don't know that process. spice and wolf novel 1 in the bottom right, you can click "let us know" in the audible section which may prompt a creation. Other than that, check youtube. thats all that i would know of where to get.
Spice & Wolf - Love story between a merchant and a wolf deity in a medieval setting.
DanMachi - Hodgepodge of gods from various mythologies acting as catalysts for adventures in a fantasy world.
Goblin Slayer - Edgy but unconventional story of a man who simply kills goblins.
Ok, sorry it took so long, but maybe try Spice and Wolf light novels, Konosuba, Death March to a Parallel World, and No game no life.
If the manga light novels aren't your style, then perhaps The Dresden Files by Jim Butcher, The Dark Tower series by Stephen King, or The Passage by Justin Cronin.
This isn't really a classic romance, but spice and wolf is a (partly) romance series of light novels set in a light fantasy version of medieval Europe. The main characters are a pair of traveling merchants, one of whom is a harvest God who wants to see the world, or something like that. If you can ignore the fans and tolerate the anime style art that you see on the cover it's pretty great.
Edit: there are occasional illustrations on pages because I don't know but it's 99% picture free.
Spice and Wolf by Isuna Hasekura
I thought a bit of a change of pace from the books that have been selected so far could be interesting with a Japanese fantasy novel.
Here is a link to the one i bought. The live action one is also on there, so I guess we just ordered different ones.
You can generally get them cheaper through Amazon and their list of other sellers. I've personally ordered from the first on the list a few times (indoobestsellers) and have had good results. BookDespository is also one of the sellers in the list, the only difference with their main site being it's $4.50 cheaper.
The light novel? It got translated officially, you should be able to buy it on Amazon in English at this link https://www.amazon.com/dp/1421527618/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_1fUByb51R2SEK
However, if you search hard enough, you can find a free pdf version online.
After checking out the manga, i would suggest checking out the novel it's based on.
If you want pictures read the manga but I suggest getting the actual book. Both are good I just prefer the latter. Oh and like 1r1d3sc3nt said...it isn't an exactly happy ending so if you are truly in a fragile state I would level out before reading it.
http://www.amazon.com/All-You-Need-Is-Kill/dp/1421527618
I hadn't read a book in the last 5+ years. Last week I picked up All You Need Is Kill because I liked the Edge of Tomorrow movie and loved it. It was a fast read at ~200 pages but it was great all the way through.
Now I picked up The Martian because I've heard a lot of good things about it. I think I actually might get back into reading now.
The novel: All You Need Is Kill
Pretty decent quick read. Not super thought provoking or complex but there's some good action. It's kinda like Groundhog Day / Run Lola Run but with an alien invasion. They're apparently adapting it as a movie staring Tom Cruise. I don't have high hopes for the movie, but the book is worth reading.
Different book, but on a similar vein if you're interested: All You Need Is Kill
You gotta read the manga then. It's like learning the little song you grew up loving is just the opening to a symphony.
Is this the bigger sized naussicaa set?
http://www.amazon.com/Nausicaä-Valley-Wind-Box-Set/dp/1421550644

I found it in a local comic shop, but you can order it on Amazon. I was actually really lucky because I bought it on Boxing Day when everything in the store was 20% off.
But you're in luck if you want to order it now. It's actually on sale on Amazon right now.

i recently bought the some of the manga i bought this version and im not disappointed the artwork is nice they looks cool but sadly they havent released all of the series yet it only goes up to when goku arrives to fight nappa and vegeta :l never the less i recommend them if your looking to spread the cost because you can just buy them when they come out
That's just the thing, as far as I know both versions are published by VIZ though the "yellow" version is called VIZBig and the "red" is simply labeled 3-in-1 which I know is the same thing, so that's why im hesitating
I think this will make it clearer

First Box Set
Second Box Set
Third Box Set
Thanks for answer!! To be precise I want to buy this and ship it to europe, I don't think books could have many problems so my guess I should go with another sellers?
I think the manga boxsets are the cheapest.
First 23 volumes for around 117$ USD
The 2nd boxset (24-46 volumes) is coming out this November.
You'll have to buy the individual volumes after the 46th. Yes, they're worth it. :) [+ it's always nice to legally support the series]

This is Amazon if you don't like Amazon you can try Rightstuf too
[Box Set 1 are volumes 1 to 23] (https://www.amazon.de/One-Piece-Box-Set-1/dp/1421560747/ref=sr_1_1?s=books-intl-de&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1536345488&amp;sr=1-1&amp;keywords=one+piece),
[Box Set 2 are volumes 24 to 46] (https://www.amazon.de/One-Piece-Box-Set-2/dp/1421576066/ref=sr_1_3?s=books-intl-de&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1536345493&amp;sr=1-3&amp;keywords=one+piece+manga),
Box Set 3 are volumes 47 to 70
I think you could have just summarized it by saying "Hey from Belgium, where can I buy One Piece manga?".
I believe the most cost effective is through box sets.
You probably can't get the same amount of volumes that I received. They do sell the box set on Japanese Amazon but since Amazon's not selling it. There's no reason to buy it from someone selling it in the UK or NJ, USA for example. Just for comparison sake, there is the same box set on Japanese amazon: http://www.amazon.co.jp/One-Piece-Box-Set-Baroque/dp/1421560747/ref=sr_1_32?s=english-books&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1452565013&amp;sr=1-32&amp;keywords=one+piece
I think you should stick with Viz whenever you can. And if you're buying the volumes, I'd highly recommend getting the box sets if you can. They're much cheaper than buying the individual volumes, and come with extras as well.
like he said, 114$ on amazon
You can buy them individually, which is ridiculously expensive, or you could by them as a boxed set on Amazon or something. The box-art is pretty nice, so there's an added bonus.

These were all in Nintendo Power (at the same time as a much-less good Super Mario comic) prior to TLoZ:ALttP being released on SNES. There were (I think) 16 issues (but I'm not positive on that). I remember back then, when I was 11 years old, finding the ending extremely bittersweet, and I've read them multiple times over the years. They're very well done.
For those looking for them, there are TPB's available. This is the most recent one.
Hello Redditors, I wanted share with you a fan art I just uploaded in my blog [No sure if I can hyperlink it]. I used as reference a panel from TLOZ: A Link to the Past by Shotaro Ishinomori. Actually a little rough fan art because I just used some old sharpie markers. I will rework it when I get something better coupled with my improved skills - lol that bang covering his right eye.
Thank you :) !

Get him the Viz Manga and/or Link to the Past graphic novel. That listing will probably end soon, but you get an idea of what I'm talking about.
Also, if you haven't already, get him Hyrule Historia. He'll flip his wig if you get him that (I mean that in the best way possible).
Hope this helps! :)
In Nintendo Power's Link to the Past Comics (serials released before the game and was slightly changed as not to be a spoiler for the game):
Essentially Link risks his life over and over to save Zelda and Zelda is intimately linked to him in both mind and essentially soul. They are in each other's dreams, they talk to each other telepathically and it is fairly obvious Zelda has feelings for Link by the time Aghanim (the wizard that took over the castle) finds them in the sanctuary and takes her away.
Anyway, at the end of the comic, Link has been knighted by Zelda, all is well and Link protects the triforces now. Zelda follows him when Link finally puts the Master Sword back into the stone. From what I recall, she basically comments that she wishes Link would pay attention to her as much as he does the Triforce and that she remembers when they were so close they would dream with each other. She is riding out of the scene/forest on her horse, leaving Link in his thoughts.
It boils down to Link risking life, limb and even turning into a beast, just to save Zelda. She falls in love but it turns out Link was only doing all of this because of his sense of duty, not because of love.
Also, Sprite (I can't recall her name in the comic) crushes on Link as expected if you grew up watching the Zelda cartoon series back then.
I know this because one of my kids recently became interested in comics and we bought this from the store.
> Picture books and chapter books appreciated! :)
Does that include graphic novels? Finding comic books for kids that feel like 'standard' fantasy (swords & sorcery/high fantasy) has been surprisingly challenging. Oddly enough, the only one that I've found that really fits is the comic book version of A Link to the Past: https://www.amazon.com/Legend-Zelda-Link-Past/dp/1421575418/
For non-standard fantasy that still uses many standard fantasy tropes, I really like Adventure Time: https://www.amazon.com/Adventure-Time-Vol-Ryan-North/dp/1608862801/
And of course further off the path there's also Bone, Usagi Jimbo, and Amulet.
Thanks so much! I can't believe I didn't bother searching the next two arcs to see if there was, I feel so dumb.
For anyone else interested - I consider this to be a confirmation that there will in fact be another one.
Looks like I know what my Christmas present will be.

This is what I found not sure of that's what your talking about.
I'm not sure how far it goes, but here's the manga on amazon.
Get the Viz Media Phantom Blood hardcover! It's reallllly nice. http://www.amazon.com/JoJos-Bizarre-Adventure-1-Phantom-Blood/dp/1421578794
Tokyo Ghoul 1 also price-matched on Amazon.
If you are willing to try something new there is a manga/graphic novel I know. It has elements of horror, tragedy, psychological mystery, and supernatural. It also has brilliant foreshadowing and plot development.
Tokyo Ghoul
Hey, thanks for the reply. Would this https://www.amazon.ca/Tokyo-Ghoul-Vol-Sui-Ishida/dp/1421580365 be what you're talking about?
Comes out June 16th: Amazon Link
i know theres so many unanswered questions, thats why im confused and want to read the manga, so if i order this: http://www.amazon.com/Tokyo-Ghoul-Vol-Sui-Ishida/dp/1421580365/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1427395419&amp;sr=8-2&amp;keywords=tokyo+ghoul

It's always expensive here in Australia unfortunately, matey potatey. $14 is actually on the cheaper end of the scale to be honest.
I know of a site that you can use to compare prices for books, and I looked up Tokyo Ghoul for you, and the $14-16 range is looking like your best bet for new.
If you're willing to try Amazon, it's here for $3 apparently, but that's not including shipping.
You might be able to find a eBook, they could be cheaper.
And if you don't care about physically collecting it, and...y'know, technically committing a 'crime', you could always just read the scanlations on MangaDex. Don't worry, you won't be arrested. We all do it here.
Sorry im really late in replying, and im on mobile as well but heres the link. Hopefully you can open it.

You can get all of death note for pretty cheap on amazon.
https://www.amazon.com/Death-Note-All-One-Tsugumi/dp/1421597713
you also have this, which is a better bargain
but if you're just buy to collect, then both the box set or the black edition seem fine to me.
TBH I have yet to read the bonus chapter but when I am done re-reading the main story I will read it. I have attached a link to the chapter summary here:
http://deathnote.wikia.com/wiki/Death_Note_One-Shot_Special
As for the all in one edition I say it's a great value. If you travel a lot or just want a great all in one package I highly recommend it. Not sure if you're in America but here is the link for it on Amazon:
