Animey

There are three ecomm sites where you can purchase manga from-

Pros-

• Possibly one of the best in terms of library size and the most fairest price.
• Whenever you place an order on their website, your request is forward to one of their foreign partners hence higher chances of having lesser known series in their inventory.

Cons

• When you make an order, they get the book imported all the way from US hence every delivery takes at least 24-28 days to happen.
• Erratic customs inspection- one of my order came with two long gashes in cover. Customs official used a blade to open my package for inspection hence the damage. I got my order partially refunded though I had option for full replacement.
• No returns until and unless your book arrived damaged.

Possibly one of the best among all sellers. Bookswagon has one of the most extensive library among all sellers in India. Most of the listing that you find on Amazon are also from them but they are usually marked up Rs. 100-200 higher there due to Amazon listing fees.

Pros-

• Seller accountability. You have the seller by the balls due to Amazon's refund policy. I had my Dorohedoro book re-shipped since the spine had scuff marks.

• Multiple sellers- not restrict to one seller. Notable sellers include- Sunrise Bookstores, Atlantic Publishers etc. Though be wary that Atlantic listing tends to be on a bit expensive side.

• Mainstream titles are easily available and faster delivery time.

Cons-

• Open season- the pricing market pretty much. Some days you feel like you walked into Big Bazaar of manga with crazy good deals. On other days it feels like manga market is second largest scalper paradise after gpu.

Depending on your day, Amazon can be a complete goldmine or just an absolute wasteland. Still, most of my purchases have been from here.

Pros-

• Pricing- sometimes manga here are cheaper than Amazon.
• Discounts- they will give you discount vouchers for writing reviews on your old orders.

Cons-

• Very limited titles.

Sapna Book House is a very well known book store chain in Bengaluru. I bought most of my One Punch Man, entire Biomega collection and couple of Slam Dunk volumes from here because they had better deal than Amazon.

Other notable websites- Flipkart, Comic Clan, Book Depository

Things to consider- Jujutsu Kaisen, Chainsaw Man and Spy X Family are nearly impossible to grab since they are going out of stock everywhere fast. Either Viz is not able to keep up with demand or just printing less volumes.

All of them are bootleg copy sellers. These are just garbage quality prints with low quality pages, layout errors and very bad fanscan translation in some cases.

Special thanks to Indian Manga Collectors Discord for the comprehensive list

Recently, I've developed a liking for anime series that feature a ranking system and characters who continuously grow, such as One Punch Man, Kaiju No. 8, My Hero Academia, and Solo Leveling. Additionally, I enjoy anime like Naruto, Hunter x Hunter, and Black Clover. For now, I'm specifically interested in watching anime within these genres, but couldn't find any. Could anyone suggest similar anime series that I might enjoy? (Aside from One Piece and Bleach, as I'm already aware of those.)

Here's a list of the anime series I've already watched:

1. Naruto
2. Death Note
3. Your Lie in April
4. I Want to Eat Your Pancreas
5. Your Name
6. Suzume
7. Spy x Family
8. Hunter x Hunter
9. My Hero Academia
10. One Punch Man
11. Mob Psycho 100
12. A Silent Voice
13. Weathering with You
14. That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime
15. Jujutsu Kaisen
16. Demon Slayer
17. Love is War
18. Black Clover
19. Kaiju No. 8
20. Solo Leveling
21. Hell's Paradise: Jigokuraku

During the lockdown period I started to gain interest in anime and seven deadly sins was the third anime I have watched and completed at that time i didn't care much about the animation quality and like it because it had a good story and likable character but now everyone hates this anime i don't get the hate. Personally I didn't know about manga so didn't care about animation quality. I heard people say that it's due to pedophilic relation and things.

I can do this.

Can i ??

Hey everyone, wanted to share a positive update about a friend I recently reconnected with on LinkedIn. A while back, I pinged Shwetha , a super talented senior SDE I knew from college. We lost touch after graduation, but I remembered how brilliant she was and wanted to see how she was doing.

To my surprise, she mentioned she was actually on a sabbatical. Apparently, the pressure of her high-paying SDE job got to her. The workload was insane, and she was dealing with a lot of stress, which manifested in some health issues - anxiety, neurological problems, and even stomach issues.

Things got so bad that her parents stepped in and convinced her to take a break. They even offered to help her transition into a teaching career, something she'd always shown an interest in. She's currently pursuing her B.Ed. while planning her wedding!

Honestly, I was a little worried at first. Leaving a successful tech career seemed like a big step back. But when I spoke to Shwetha again, her voice radiated pure joy. She's loving the challenge of her B.Ed. program, feels a lot healthier now that the stress is gone, and is super excited to start her new life as a teacher.

The whole experience made me realize that success isn't always about the fattest paycheck or the most prestigious title. Sometimes, it's about finding what truly makes you happy and fulfilled, even if it means taking an unconventional path. So happy for Shwetha and her new chapter!

I recently started getting manga ads on my insta and got one from:-

https://www.bookishadda.com

Anyone who is planning on purchasing manga from this or the others listed below (also added links to ones that offer original ones) please note that these are not original manga’s. These websites are selling one volume of manga for 200-300 rupees, Berserk Vol 1-11 Set for 1400 😂, that’s the cost of original Vol 1 & 2 combined (Approx)

1. Even in Japan (Japanese version) the manga cost $3.5 - $4. Here they are selling Translated one (English Version) even below that which is not possible due to licensing fee and translation fee, the cost increases and it’s not possible to.

2. There are indiscrepancies in the page no., ISBN numbers.

3. The conditions of the books in the images provided by them on the listing pages aren’t great, edges are roughed out.

Next one is just blatantly katna logo ka 😂 4. Solo leveling (not an exception) in all these cheap manga websites is in black and white, even tough as a manhwa it should be in color, their are no official black and white editions as these websites list them. They have this edition cause black and white is cheaper and that makes it feasible to them to sell you at these cheap rate.

1. Just like last example of solo leveling, in their product listing, they have images of pages, which are in black & white btw 😂, the images quality and the text character quality is literally so bad that is screams fake just by the looks of it. (have seen same things in others too on their site, for consistency using Solo leveling again for example for consistency)

I don’t want to demean anyone who is choosing for these options, as to be real, 600-800 per volume, and then going on to keep a collection of all volumes costing you from 16K - 30K is a big price, so someone who can’t spend that much and still want to use these for collection, it’s your choice no hate I understand.

BUT, Promotes these fakes and takes that money away from the original creator.

These ones hold no value as a collector item if let’s say you maintain them and re sell them years down the line as they are fake. (In terms of collector value, English Ones are of less value compared to Japanese Ones)

• https://gyaanstore.com/

• https://bookspringindia.in/

• https://www.elocalshops.com/

• https://www.99booksstore.com/manga-books.htm

• Snapdeal, Flipkart, Amazon cheap ones (go on the legit websites below and compare the prices, and just by that you’ll know wether they are fakes one, but that doesn’t make the one similarly priced ones on these retailers legit too, cause there are cases people have received fake ones)

• https://www.simonandschuster.co.in/

• https://www.bookswagon.com/

• https://blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/home (Yes they ship to India and the costing shown on listings include shipping, almost same price, a bit higher around 70-200)

I'm looking for anime where the mc(male lead) is attention seeker(I mean famous) who gets high score during tests and catch everyone's interest or attention and he should even be stronger than others and he should never lose to someone and on top of that he shouldn't be a pervert and I prefer unfazed protagonists.

Which should be the first movie or series for anime watch?
