>>4531863>モブヘブンAuthor doesn't appear to have any yuri cred but it has a few scenes with a level of closeness that would not unusual in non-yuri work so it is hard to say one way or the other. Looks like it will be a comfy subtext series at a minimum at least.
https://www.amiami.jp/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-198560Preorders are up. Looks great and 24,250 yen is less than I expected although its still expensive since the shipping will be painful. Is it a good idea to preorder this now or is it safe to wait? I don't really want to drop that much money right now if it isn't shipping until 2027.
>>4531941AI Datacenters will begin buying up all yuri figures soon so do not wait
putting together my shelf. wish i had some acrylic stands for my postcards, but i’ll have to wait until tomorrow
>>4531863>宮田愛萌https://twitter.com/lily_novel/status/2026600443078651912Into the trash it goes. I thought she was better than this.New reminder to never buy yuri novel anthologies blindly.
If a book had a preorder bonus that you wanted but you didnt own all the previous volumes, would you buy all released volumes to complete the set?
>>4534494Do you mean if I did own all the previous volumes? I've done it on the rare occasion when it only meant re-buying a 2-3 volumes and the bonus was nice, but I skip it when it is a long series. If I didn't own the series at all yet then of course I'd buy the whole series at once and get the bonus.
>>4534494I think I've actually done that before. Or I at least waited until a special volume bundle was available when I got into a series late enough to miss early volumes.
https://twitter.com/garden_pri42819/status/2029472555883770107Is this only the merch of an event? No way to buy it online?
>>4535686Prism garden is in person only so for the time being this is all exclusive to people who get tickets and go to the event. No way to know if they'll sell them later on at melon but it is unlikely.
>>4535707What a waste. Why would they want to sell less?Because they know if everybody could buy online nobody would go to their event?
>>4535976Japan just really likes pop up shops and exclusive event items. I don't know why it happens this way but it means having to buy everything secondhand.
I'm late to the party, so pic related has been exceedingly hard/annoying to find anywhere that isn't from resellers/scalpers.Luckily, it seems they keep doing reprints because apparently, they do want money.
>>4536728I preordered mine and it just shipped from animate recently despite coming out a month ago so even the early stock was hard to come by.

Retarded question I know, but this’s Yuzuki and Fuuko right?
>Prism garden is physical only>Yurihime 20th anniversary goods were physical onlyPlease just take my money already.
>>4535686Damn just came here to ask this. Really wanted some of these acrylics..
>>4537845I just did a quick count and there are over 20 revealed and I want almost all of them. I guess I should be thankful they are preventing me from impulse buying over 44,000 yen on plastic.
https://www.melonbooks.co.jp/detail/detail.php?product_id=3341213This is the first time a lottery's lowest level prize is the one I want the most. I wish they'd just sell a set of the whole yurirei cast like this so I wouldn't have a near-0 probability of getting the whole set without buying an insane number of tickets.
What's your rarest yuri item
>>4538862not sure how you'd determine the rarity, but i have all the english Galette books + booklet/postcards released so far, some booth merch from morinaga and hakamada including signed canvases, all the girls last tour nendos including the kettenkrad, and an Adashima poster signed by the cast.I also have the special edition bluray of 'a place further than the universe', and all the watamote plushies if you want to count those as yuri too
>>4538862A bunch of signed and signed/illustrated books which are extremely difficult to enjoy since they don't display well and I don't want to ruin it by reading that copy. The illustrations on some of them are incredible but there's no good way to put that anywhere without risking damage. I have a few very low print run yuri items like framed art from an old yuri fair or kickstarter/campfire items. I think most yuri merch is generally rare in comparison to other things or it at least feels that way sometimes with how impossible it is to get some items after they sell out. The rarest yuri items I have are one of one hand drawn art shikishi which I was lucky enough to receive.
Is ECMS back?
Goodsmile just doubled the shipping price for US customers again...
>>4539375I thought so but I bought a single yuri book with buyee and the only shipping option they have is airmail at 6000 yen. It is a $10 book under 400 grams. What the fuck. I forward normally and only did this because there was no other easy way to buy from toranoana. Would have been cheaper buying from a scalper secondhand.
>>4527898 Update from last thread, but it turns out the high price really was because of the large amount of items on the order. $80 of it was the “entry-line charge after first 3 lines” fee, $20 combined for the PGA disclaimer fee and disbursement fee; and only about $20 for the actual tariffs. Absurd.Sticking with Fedex for the time being now that it has DDP, hopefully my tariff exempt items stay properly exempt and they don't try to charge me for my manga.Is ECMS doing DDP too?Also apparently buyee has raised their fee from 300 to 500, for those that use that proxy>>4539375Looks like it for me.

However now that it's complete I can finally make my bulk order using a proxy to get it, AyaHiro 2, Kanojo no kuchidzuke kansen suru libido and a couple of other stuff blocked by Amazon, maybe I'll throw inside a few doujinshi too but I'm worried about fees and shipping costs considering the current world situation. I've received an email by ZenMarket telling me they're increasing prices but fortunately only for auctions (for now).
the paper bonuses that come with manga (not postcards, but the thin slip of paper), are weird. i have no idea what to do with them so i just place them between the pages
It's out of any decency.They could also give you more than a 1% discount on future orders... I always hear people talking about the insane discounts amazon gives them while I've never got more than 1%.
>>4542395I use art portfolio books to store all my extras because a lot of leaflets I get are sometimes bigger than the book. Helps keep them nice but it is impossible to sort them because I have too many now.>>4542427It is probably better for people who can get amazon jp credit cards since they give a lot more points back. Still that shipping is pure pain. I can't take the endless price hikes
>>4542474>a lot of leaflets I get are sometimes bigger than the bookfor those little booklets, i just put them in the obi of a random kirara manga since theyre slightly bigger than standard sized manga
Why won't they simply sell acrylics? Or cards with these illustrations?No store exclusives, no omake of a volume, and on a store that will ship abroad. I would buy a ton.
And they don't stop coming.
>>4543093I used to be more concerned about collecting a few extra copies of the books but the yen is so valueless now I don't even care. Shipping is the only thing that makes this difficult now.
Sold my >english copies of 2beya. I’d like to replace them with jp copies.
>>4543166Shipping going up 3x in the past year is incredibly annoying. It pisses me off.
>>4544026I spent $400 this month on import shipping. Meanwhile ordering all the yuri I can get my hands on in a month costs me less than that. It is obscene.
>want to buy majo to tsukaima>also want some manga from cdjapanAAHHHHH I DON'T WANT TO PAY SHIPPING TWICE
Spicy.i really like the prism garden acrylics so far
WataTabe's BD is a very cheap edition, it doesn't have a real box but it's just a cardboard band with no bottom so shit falls through it, but it has the best extra I've seen in a lot of time: cards with the endcards illustrations and an extra manga chapter (though the story wasn't yuri-focused).
Who else has given their hard earned money to Kickstarter in exchange for fictional lesbians recently?
>>4544544>i really like the prism garden acrylics so farme too and i cry everytime a new one gets revealed because they will not be up for sale online.
>>4546145it won't be my first time scouring the second hand market for months, doing daily refreshes of mercari jp
Does melonbooks ever restock on preorder bonuses? I missed some acrylics that I wanted that released last november..
>>454701499% of the time, no. Most bookstore bonuses are one print run that sells out around the release date. If it is a popular series it may have a 2nd wave reprint immediately after it runs out, or if it gets an anime or something they may reprint the bonus for the entire series as a bulk purchase bonus.
>>4547017Good to know. I managed to pick up a few LNs that still had the acrylics, so are those just prints that never got sold?
>>4547020Yeah some of the less popular items sit around for a long time. I've picked up months old bonus items like acrylics or special edition volumes on occasion and always feel like I was lucky to catch it in time. Sadly I still miss out on new releases occasionally since some things sell out a week or two before their release date. Just missed out on an acrylic I wanted this month but I buy too many anyway so I've stopped feeling the sting as much.
I haven't shipped any of my yuri since october but now is the time to send it home. I have about 45kg of merch, manga, doujinshi and so much yuri goodness coming this month that I'm not sure what I'm going to do.
>>4547436Good fucking luck.
