I second this! As both one of my favorite manga and anime, Toilet-Bound Hanako-Kun is such a great story. The spines look really pretty together on a shelf as well which to me is a huge plus. I highly recommend to anyone, especially those who appreciate mystery, some suspense, and for a genuinely really fun and interesting read :)
I third this!! The characters are some of the most likeable ever,art style is amazing,it's very unique and overall one of my favorite manga of all time absolutely amazing
I'm American but I've been living in Japan for the past 6 years. My husband is Japanese and he's a HUGE otaku. I showed him this video and he was absolutely overjoyed at how many manga have been translated into English. I miss American bookstores a lot, so I really appreciate this video!!
When you said that your grandpa started reading black butler it reminded me of when I saw two old ladies buying the newest one piece volume together lol. Also I absolutely LOVE apothecary diaries!! I read every new volume as soon as they come out. I hope you enjoy it! :)
Land of the Lustrous quickly became one of my all time favorite manga. It really has that oldschool sci-fi feel like nothing else has had lately and it's just captivating.
Great haul! 😀😊 If you didn't know about Square Enix (SE),they are originally being as an video game company 😀😉 and then they also had an manga and magazines on that company as well 😀😉
I know I'm a tad late, but I highly, HIGHLY recommend Our Dreams At Dusk. The art is so pretty with the pretty spiraling landscapes to the glints in the characters eyes! The characters are so well thought out and each gets a good story line throughout the 4 volumes. Lastly, the last volume will make you, or almost make you, cry your eyes out with one story line!
Oh wow, I wasn't expecting a sponsor so early, that's awesome! I bumped into Flexispot stuff when I was looking for a standing desk, I have a VIVO desk currently but Flexispot was my backup. Also gramps is incredibly based!
@@purplefrogYT Oh lol this was a while ago, I have my VIVO desk but I was going to get a Flexispot desk, the VIVO one was just deeper in dimension so I can use my drawing tablet better.
Baccano was interesting to say the least. It started out as a mafia manga but turned into a super natural story. I haven't read it in a while and I might want to try it again.
@@purplefrogYT Idk I haven't read bungo stray dogs yet. If I remember correctly there is a mob boss who has an elixer that is keeping him alive forever and the main character has someway of taking him down. Its veen at least five years since I've read it, lol.
@@purplefrogYT oh yes btw Toilet bound hanako kun is a nice read 📚 I been collecting/ reading that series as well. Still haven't had any luck locating Hell's Paradise vol. 2 & 3 & also can't come up on Dr. STONE VOL. 6,7,8 . HOPEFULLY soon
Her, talking about “Girl From The Other Side: It’s personally not a series that’s interests me… Me: I see we’ve learned from the “Black Butler” incident 😆 (Also side note: My Next Life As A Villainess, I enjoy)
Toilet bound hanako kun is adout a Desperate girl yashiro nene and she tries to summon a ghost hanako kun no spoilers but they become friends and the manga of UT is amazing yes you should get it
A sign of affection is a really beautiful series, with a great story. 😊 Also Case and Study of Vanitas is really good but hard to find 1-3 volumes but the anime is also very beautiful. 😊 What are some of your favorite manga series? 😁
I’ve started to buy One Piece, I have nearly half the series, I have 1-24, and then 71-100, I need to get the 2nd & 3rd box sets. I’ve paused my manga buying for a while as I’ve spent like €7,000 on it this year. Until I’ve actually read a lot of what I have I’m not getting any more.
I really want to read one piece, but the series is so long i would have to get a whole other shelf just for one piece! I might read it online, is the manga good?
great video! fangs has vol 2. it came out recently i think. have u read coyote yet? after reading birds of shangri la, im obsessed with ranmaru ike's stuff.
@@purplefrogYT coyote is a romeo and juliet type of story (hopefully with a better ending thou lol) only with werewolves and mafia having a long standing feud. birds of shangrila is my fav of all her works. there is this straight dude apollo who arrives at a super fancy male brothel to work as a fluffer basically. and one of the sex workers there Phi takes over his training. things ensue. there is so much to the story and its better of u experience it for urself but one thing i wanna mention is that the brothel is very atypical as its owned by a crazy rich gay man who makes sure that the sex workers actually wanna be there, feel safe and protected and basically are having the best time of their lives. yep. hope you'll pick it up. :)
I never thought I’d hear “my grandpa read black butler and Jojo” in all my days
What timeline do we live in
😂😂
toilet bound hanako kun is such a great manga. Its basicly about ghosts but its really intresting. You should get it!!
It sounds really good! I will add it to my list of series to get!

The apothecary diaries is so good!! I love the strong female lead!
YOU NEED TI WATCH/READ FRUIT BASKET!!! (If you haven’t ofc haha) but fr your vids give me comfort when I come back from school 😩
I have watched both of the animes, I will make sure to read the manga!
Land of the Lustrous quickly became one of my all time favorite manga. It really has that oldschool sci-fi feel like nothing else has had lately and it's just captivating.
I will definitely have to check it out!! I keep hearing amazing things about it!
I wish my Barnes and noble had this good f selection LIKE LOOK AT ALL THAT DOROHEDORO
I hope the selection near you expands!!
Great haul! 😀😊 If you didn't know about Square Enix (SE),they are originally being as an video game company 😀😉 and then they also had an manga and magazines on that company as well 😀😉
Thank you for letting me know!!
@@purplefrogYT You welcome and no problem! 😀😉👌
You should totally get TBHK. If not for the story than for the artwork because my god, is it beautiful🙏
Thank you for the recommendation! I definitely have to add it to my list I mean the art is so beautiful!
I love hearing families that read manga. I brings joy to my heart. I really want to get Fangs too!!
I have been hearing such good things about fangs ! I am so excited to read it!
It is so great that you and your grandfather share this hobby.
Yes it is really wonderful that he also enjoys reading manga!!
I know I'm a tad late, but I highly, HIGHLY recommend Our Dreams At Dusk. The art is so pretty with the pretty spiraling landscapes to the glints in the characters eyes!

@@purplefrogYT no problem 😌
I love your content sm. Something so therapeutic about manga/anime content creators
Ahh tysm!!
As someone who has been watching for two years (wow) it’s nice to she the charcter developed arc with your content ❤
Ahhh tysm!!
your grandpa sounds like the coolest !!
He is!!
Oh wow, I wasn't expecting a sponsor so early, that's awesome! I bumped into Flexispot stuff when I was looking for a standing desk, I have a VIVO desk currently but Flexispot was my backup.
Also gramps is incredibly based!
Ahh thank you!! Electric desks are really nice! I hope you enjoy yours when you get it!
@@purplefrogYT Oh lol this was a while ago, I have my VIVO desk but I was going to get a Flexispot desk, the VIVO one was just deeper in dimension so I can use my drawing tablet better.
Baccano was interesting to say the least. It started out as a mafia manga but turned into a super natural story. I haven't read it in a while and I might want to try it again.
Ahh that is completely different from what I was expecting! It sounds really interesting, almost like bingo stray dogs. Is it similar?
@@purplefrogYT Idk I haven't read bungo stray dogs yet. If I remember correctly there is a mob boss who has an elixer that is keeping him alive forever and the main character has someway of taking him down. Its veen at least five years since I've read it, lol.
4:58 ahh I've been looking for volume 1 of classroom of the elite, I recommend it!
I will have to check it out!
You should definitely try Seraph of the End. It's my favorite manga!!!
I will definitely check it out!
gotta check out Blood on the Tracks, currently one of my favorites. The subject matter at times can be hard to read, but its really good
Thank you for the recommendation! I will be sure to check it out!!

(Also side note: My Next Life As A Villainess, I enjoy)
