Even though there was a lot to offer I ended up with something non-manga related. I'm already looking forward to the next visit. #manga #mangashelf #mangacollection #mangaart #mangacollector #mangapickup #shonen #shonenjump #shonenmanga #otaku #mangapanel #mangadrawing #mangaka #sportsmanga #tokyopop #yenpress #darkhorse #kodansha #michikoaoyama #waterstones #waterstonessudbury
