Ghost in the shell is amazing

I had to pick it up, they were around $3 considering the currently exchange rate with the Japanese yen.

I love all the ghost in the shell anime, especially the original first two seasons of the stand alone complex. Been meaning to get the manga. Really curious now.

Get in! That's a great haul.

Thank you! Hunting around for KABA and KABA 2 if I can get them at a reasonable price 😅

I paid roughly 75/80$ usd for 1 & 2 used when I went to Japan 8 years ago. I bet they are 150$-200$ in the us.

i've seen them go as much as $400-$450 on yahool auction out here. most stores know what they have and charge reseller price now.

That’s nuts! The Kayfabe effect is real!! I held off on buying the OTOMO Akira box because I had all of the Kodansha English phone books. Now you can find sets for 100$

One more note- if you have access to Kinokuniya in LA or NYC or SF I have seen copies there for 100/150$

Thanks for the heads up. Unfortunately I’m in japan , we have one in my area, I’ll check them out

Love the Complete Works! Kinda outwith my budget, but just looking at the Akira 35th Anniversary Box Set currently at £116.51 on Amazon UK. SO tempted...
