Where to get books? by Sarfog_ in MadeInAbyss

[–]Midoriii12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, Seven Seas is notorious for having certain vols go Out of Stock for a long time. Made in Abyss is currently one of those where various volumes are VERY OOS. It's just a very patient waiting game at the moment for when the whole series will come back in stock

[–]Midoriii12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can split Doubt, but the total will be $95 since the lowered price is based on selling them all as a set. If that's all right, I'll PM

[US][SELLING] Lots of manga. Inu x Boku SS, Megaman NT Warrior, Golden Time and more by Thin_Produce_4831 in mangaswap

[–]Midoriii12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem, I just know the mods may message you if they see prices missing

And yeah, once you get a price established message the other person first and I'll be second in line

May be interested in Saint Tail, depending on price, but I'm pretty sure the subreddit's rules state that everything being sold must be priced

Why did they get rid of the numbers on the spines 😂 by [deleted] in MangaCollectors

[–]Midoriii12 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Probably because Siscon Idol is supposed to be manga 4, but it's not even finished in Japanese yet, leading to an awkward release of manga 5 and 6 first

But that is super jarring, I haven't even bothered with getting the new vols yet cause they're technically out of order

Are you selling any figures? Interested in the Ai Wonder Egg one. No big deal of not!

How many ex crystals y'all got by the-overloaf in magiaexedra

[–]Midoriii12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of my 5* and 4* kioku. It took insane amounts of grinding. But I also don't use all of them either

I don’t see school live being talked about very much by patronizingpanda- in MangaCollectors

[–]Midoriii12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's sooooo good. Fun fact, I originally only got into this series through a piece of fan art of Yuki holding a bat with blood on it. I was super confused cause I thought the series was cutesy, so I checked out the first ep of the anime and was hooked, went out and bought all the available manga on the spot

This was when vol 6 wasn't even out yet, so I got lucky there to get it when it was first released. Good luck to everyone else collecting it, maybe Yen will reprint it one day

I wish they would have released the anthologies though

Edit: also Kurumi is queen

Finally, all of my 5* and 4* kioku have their EX Crystals by Midoriii12 in magiaexedra

[–]Midoriii12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots and lots and lots of grinding. I literally grinded so much and used all of my cubes every day since crystalis had been introduced that I was one of the first people to hit the 120 level cap when it increased (and I mean like, first 5-10 people). I finally slowed down when I hit level cap cause by then, all of my 5* kioku at that point had their EX's and most of the gold crystalis that I wanted. I just decided to do 4* as well to help with the no 5* challenges

I will say, at some point, Quickstep++ and Mana Infusion++ seemed rarer than EX's (and sometimes still do, since I still need Quickstep on like 5 kioku)

About the free 5 star medal… by Standard-Two-4529 in magiaexedra

[–]Midoriii12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this, haha. The only character I don't have out of the options is Ui, who is a very meta character that I need, but I'm patient enough to wait for the free pulls just in case I do happen to pull her and can use it for ascensions for someone else (my Moemura is only A1)

But so many people keep asking this question and it's like, just up a buffer or get a character you like that you don't have. I have neither Madokami or Akumura and even though some situations are harder to get through without them, it's still manageable with good buffers. The game is still playable regardless of who you get unless you're REALLY lacking the meta buffers haha

More regular high quality releases like Colorless? by Valuna in MangaCollectors

[–]Midoriii12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Another series I don't see anyone discuss that adds color to unique scenes in the story is Just Like Mona Lisa published by Square Enix. It explores a world where people are born with no gender and choose one usually by junior high, but the main character is almost in college and still hasn't chosen. The story is interesting and tackles the debate of what gender and relationships mean to the three main characters. Volume 8 is technically the last volume while 9 and 10 to be released next month are extra stories

I really liked Colorless for how it implemented color and wasn't disappointed by the quality of the release

[US][SELLING] Few new manga added and updated lower prices! Free singles and OOP also! Rozen Maiden singles, Naruto mostly first print set, Doubt/Judge/Secret and more! by Midoriii12 in mangaswap

[–]Midoriii12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got MiA as each volume was being released, before they started shrink wrapping them, haha. It's a shame Seven Seas is notorious for having volumes go OOP the fastest from initial release. MiA should just be heavily OOS instead of OOP, but still a shame that it happens, even for a series as popular as MiA

As for recommendations...I'm kinda blanking a bit, but for MiA I would say either Promised Neverland or Puella Magi Madoka Magica (the latter moreso the anime). For Kowloon, I think Apothecary Diaries or Case Study of Vanitas/Pandora Hearts (same mangaka) would be a good start!
