My collection - 2016

It's been a long while since I showed off my shelves so when I ordered some new books I figured, "why not now?" meaning these photos will be outdated in a week but WHATEVER.

There's around 91 series in total, including one-shots, doujinshi, and light novels. I lost count of volumes but it passed 400 some time ago (I'll probably update this after I get my new volumes to recount). First one I ever bought was Shaman King.

My collection of American comics is severely lacking, so I'm trying to expand my horizons without getting strong-armed into reading a dozen crossovers (The biggest roadblock for me is the lack of easy entry point for new readers).

Plan to eventually re-buy a few series due to license rescues or re-releases (My Cat Loki, Maid-sama!, Less Than Epic, Off*Beat).

Lastly for those curious, yes--that rightmost bookcase houses most of my non-graphic novel books (the rest are overflowing my nightstand and stored in two trunks under my bed Idon'thaveaproblemyouhaveaproblem).
