My Goal

I have come to a decision!  After looking at my bookshelf of manga and scrolling the internet of DVD box sets, figurines, wall scrolls, any other merchandise that is anime related, I have decided to buy one or two items per paycheck.  I will treat myself to a "new" book (and I say "new" because I've been buying them used), a DVD or box set, or any other merchandise of my favorite series for the rest of the semester. 

Back in high school, my manga collection grew fairly quick in just two years, but once I came to college, jobless in Rock Hill, my collecting has almost all but stopped!  I know it may sound ridiculous, but when I look at the series I am collecting, I realize how behind I am.  The only one I am up to date on is my beloved Fullmetal Alchemist series.  Those still needing to be completed:

 

Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicles (and the series has been completed)

Fruits Basket (I just need 7 more...I have the ending of the series)

+ Anima (series is complete only 5 more books to collect)

Inuyasha (but I just started this one, so it can wait)

Mars (one of the first manga brought to the states that is no longer in print, and finding the last 3 online has been a challenge)

For now, Wish, by the infamous group CLAMP is top priority on my list.  It was the first series I collected with a total of only 4 books.  Sadly, this past summer the first 3 met their end.  I'm not even sure what was sprouting from their bottom other than possible mold from something that had spilt. 

Here's to keeping my hobby of collecting this useless junk!  I know one day I may, may, have to part with my babies, but I'm a materialistic girl when it comes to this stuff, so perhaps I can convince my future hubby to let me keep it all!

Plus...I want to get my children into this world of wonder!



My small, humble manga collection. 
It does not compare to others I have seen!
I have anime boxsets as well,
but they're on a different shelf.
