manga backlog

meganbmooreI have finally tracked down all parts of the manga backlog(err...there may be strays I haven't found yet, but I doubt it), which got a bit scattered and hidden during the cleaning spree a few weeks back. While I am a firm believer in stockpiling reading material in case of dire emergencies, I think it has passed the stockpiling stage. Ditto for comics. I'll probably do a separate post for them later. Trying to list the novels backlog would break LJ in half.
Anyway, tell me what to read. I didn't realize until I was putting them all together how far behind I'd fallen on some series. I'm probably going to leave off the posting on individual volumes for a bit and doing more 2-3 volume posts (already been starting to) to help with the catch up. (This doesn't include a few series where I'm missing the next volume or more, or manga I'm following in scans, as they don't properly count as backlog,though I'll likely knock them out first. I don't count Samurai Deeper Kyo in this, as what i've read through the end is a combination of scattered scans, raws, and translations.)
[Poll #1273005]
*short story collections
ETA: Cain Saga is only the first 2 volumes. Cursed "no editting polls."

Date: 2008-10-06 02:54 am (UTC)I know what you mean...Basara is gorgeous loving and when I saw the special edition boxset on ebay I was like $200? I AM THERE SCREW BILLS FOR THE MONTH! except I didn't because I am too responsible for that
if I wasn't the new box archive edition of the complete FMA anime would SO BE MINE even if it is $600...no subject
Date: 2008-10-06 05:06 am (UTC)did they make a shorter supply of those for some reason?
I've no idea, but it's really weird that this one volume is so much more expensive than the remainder of the series.
Responsibility! It is our bane, our curse. (But I want the Princess Tutu boxset noooooow.)
You never know, though! It just might pop up at a used bookstore.
