To Love-Ru & Speed Grapher

I just got two packages today and it is amazing they both came in at the same time.  First up is some untranslated manga of To Love-Ru.  Am going to address more about where I got it in another post as this was a test of their service. I was able to get these manga for 30 bucks, but had to navigate through an all Japanese site to figure it it.

This was on the receipt I got for the Manga in case you want to go ahead and check them out.

I thought the box it came in was pretty unique and colorfull. I haven’t actually seen a box open like this before. Most ones i see are the 4 sided lids.

And as you can see I got the first 4 volumes of To Love-Ru

So that is the manga that I got. Next up is the box set of Speed Grapher. This isn’t mine I was just buying it for a friend since I saw it on sale and he wanted it. Have already been reimbursed even. :)

Again a bit of a different box than I am used to seeing, but more basic than the last one.

Here is the front and side view.

Here is the coolest part of the whole box set to me. That is a book accompanying it explainging all the key parts, or that is what I am guessing it does. I might have to buy this box set for myself sometime in the future.

Finally here is the view of the cd’s all folded out and the backside of it.

I am really excited about the manga as I am fan of To Love-Ru. Apparently though I am one of the few as yesterday there was official notice of cancellation of the series.

You might want to try book-off for japanese manga. They are only in a few US and Canadian cities but they offer better prices than Kinokuniya, and also tend to have a lot of used manga for just a couple of bucks apiece.

I didn't know Bookoff was in the US. I knew it was in Japan and have threatened when i go to Japan to ship back 4 or 5 boxes of manga. I never new they were here in the US. I am going to check that out. Thanks for letting me know.
