Hmm, I'll have to look for more books from KW. It's sorta a drag scanning ALL the titles, at least I can read some Japanese. The books are usually grouped by publisher, so I'll look the next time I'm at Mitsuwa and Book Off.

It was by accident that I saw KnJ book 8 at Mitsuwa, it was just lying there, and it jumped out at me.

Most of these other titles have been out of print for a long time, so I doubt if they'd be there. I'm not finding them on eBay either. We had such a great situation up until a few months ago, with everything out there on the internet...

Both times I visited Tokyo, I obtained the majority of my manga at Mandarake in Nakano. They carry manga at about half the usual bookstores' price. My Seishun Binta volumes were about JPY 250 each, instead of the usual 600.

I saw the also ship to France, but the shipping rates are outrageous, like the rest of them.

Book Off has a lot of out of print titles, I'll check them out... They even had ancient Ranma and Urusei Yatsura manga. The first ones, not the reprints. I wonder what they would give me for 1990-1993 Shonen Sundays, I was subscribing so I could get my Ranma fix. There are some color Ranma chapters. (The first few pages)

No, I don't know any stores in LA anymore, I used to go to Little Tokyo a million years ago... There used to be a place in Monterey Park, and then all the way down in the South Bay...

Okay, thanks. I guess I'll have to search on line then.

All right -- because Google watches these pages, I don't want to say the name of the RAW that I scanned, but it was one that Nitrogen was interested in. And after spending an hour over my scanner I want someone to get some use out of it. So see if you want to download this please:

manga.zip

And while I am at it, the two missing pages from Volume 8, also raw.

Rin_Miss.zip

Let me know if these files don't work for you.

1. I have no problem with you faggots posting download link to unlicensed stuff. Just don't do it all the time.

2. Have you people ever tried amazon.co.jp ? Just take the japanese title on mangaupdates.com and paste it. There's even a kind of english page.


Cuz' you can't, you won't and you don't STOP!
