Add me to that list. Perhaps Viz should consider doing a Detective Conan omnibus edition with Japanese names intact.

I would buy that FAST!

I hated how they changed the names and script for Case Closed. COME ON GUYS. We may be Westerners, but DON'T TREAT US LIKE CHILDREN. We can actually make the effort to understand Japanese names and culture. It isn't that difficult.


I blame the creator as well. It's partly his fault for these changes. It's not a western thing, the Germans got a faithful version of Detective Conan. It's just that we Yanks and Canucks aren't so lucky, despite the latter being smarter than both, as shown by international testing. I'm sorry for the Canucks who have to be tied to us in markets.

3 shelves tall enough to almost touching the ceiling. Of course, I'm looking to add more shelves.


I see. You must have a lot of space where you live. I only have two bookshelves in my small room that do not touch the ceiling and one is smaller then the other. Plus I only have two manga series on one of those shelves so far (one is omnibus). The rest I keep inside a storage container until I can one day display them properly

Viz ceased all publishing of Shakugan no Shana titles at 2nd volume of light novel version and 6th volume of manga. In other words, Viz effectively canceled 'em. :/


Makes me wonder if I can go back to collecting Cased Closed (from 4th volume and so on) again or not, because I just started collecting Attack on Titan at Volume 1, which I just got and recently finished collecting Black Cat at 20th volume (started collecting this title last year) and there are many 'ecchi' titles/volumes (my favorite genre) that are coming out this year. ;(


I wonder why Viz stopped publishing Shana instead of finishing what they started? Was it because the books were not selling well enough for them? As for whether you should go back to collecting Detective Conan, I'll say go for it. You should finish what you started before starting another series. Don't make the mistake of collecting a bunch of different tittles only to leave them incomplete. It happened to me (and it still does to a less extent) and it's not that good.

Given how Dragon Ball hasn't got a proper and uncensored translation in English yet, it may never come...


Really? I thought they already release the uncut version of Dragonball when they publish the series as an omnibus.

Ditto! I would buy this series in a heartbeat if they offered it with the correct names!
