I currently have 43 volumes of licensed manga stacked to be read, with another 15 i ordered the other day yet to arrive. I’ve 13 light novels waiting, and another 50 unlicensed manga i still haven’t gotten around to reading yet.
Just as i start thinking i’m making a dent in them, more arrives lol.
Habr you seen the R.O.D anime, where they open the door and all the books fallout, that’s what my house is like heheh
Yeah, my to-read pile comprises about eight different stacks atop two dressers.
I tend to buy more anime than manga, so it’s my “to watch” pile that’s enormous. I’ve got at least 45 hours worth of anime I haven’t yet watched. And there’s still so much more I want to buy and see… I just finished Season Two of GetBackers and am trying to decide what I should watch next from my pile. I really should start with Chobits (I bought the DVDs used, and I still need to make sure there’s no problems with the discs), but I’m really excited about having Emma and the first season of Black Lagoon. Oh, so much good stuff! :)
Hi! Thanks for the mention! ^^
