    Does anyone re-read the manga from past decade? ( No! I am not talking about you One piece and Berserk )
    If so then what make you revisit that manga?

    For me Ga-rai and Psyren are the two manga that I still re-read like every year.
    Both is about a guy desperately try to gain power to save a girl and concept is kinda unique. I guess, I just love the lore and character development of those 2 manga.

    Berserk was published at 1989. Just how old/young do you want your manga to be?

    I just found out, the paper they (the publisher here) use for manga is of different material. From the touch, it felt like those novel I bought from overseas, thick.
    Dunno if it's not going yellowish. I heard book from other country also turn yellowish no matter how nice the paper is.

    That one I have not encounter also. Most of the books I have is published from UK (eg. penguin publisher) or from Yen press. Both still turn yellow. Best is just keep it away from direct sunlight and the only one that still alive and kicking is those Net Geo books. :D

    Net geo books ne, but those material are freaking expensive! And heavy too.
    I think it truly is the time to buy ebook, but hard copy is smth else! Couldnt be replaced.

    Hahaha I sub for 2 years cause of free gift. :ROFLMAO:

    YES!! hardcopy is still the best. May be it just my preferences, I just love reading through hardcopy, smell of the new book and flipping pages. That one cannot be beaten by e-book.

    A few weeks ago I read Gunm/Battle Angel Alita (then Last Order), still a great read and a timeless classic.
    Maybe I'll go further in the past with some Tezuka next (why not an Astro/Tetsuwan Atom-Pluto/Pluton for a Tezuka-Urasawa binge session...).

    hmm...I haven't read much at all recently for various reasons (life got me busy) but I have three that will always make me so bitter and nostalgic.
    Claymore, Anatolia Story, and Basara.
    I don't count stuff that's ongoing
