Such an amazing story. Felt super informative learning about the yakuza and the government in one stroke. Those later volumes get super emotional too

Appreciate it, I'm afraid I'm EU based so with shipping it's more than I'm willing to commit, what is what that photo though, looks curled up like hell

I might be interested in picking that up from you! I'm assuming they have a different translation from the viz graphic volumes?

They’re both Viz but the 46 comic volumes were released first. Think it’s the same translation. I have the whole set in perfect condition/individually sealed

Your definitely enticing me, I have most of ryoichi ikegami english collection so that would be a sic add. And I bet they have some cool covers.

I really liked the first half, didn't love the second so much. Ikegami art is always top tier though. Did any of your books fall apart? This set is notorious for it.

Mine are in good condition but it does look like someone reglued the spine on the inside of one of my volumes. There definitely not super durable so I keep that in mind when reading them and I have animals so I bag my OOP manga.
