I need help getting these manga books! (loveless)
« on: March 16, 2012, 09:15:04 AM »
Okay, since Tokyo Pop is no more... I can't get ahold of teh Loveless series.

Long story short - I got into Loveless 4 years ago or so, but was in a relationship woth my ex who wasn't at all supportive of my manga/anime interest and especially not Shonen ai.

And now that I'm not in that relationship anymore, I can't gte the books. I have 1&2, but of course I want the full series. (so I'm looking for book 3 through 10)
Thanks to IzumiKage I have the anime, but I want the books as well.
So, I'm ust wondering, can anybody help me get these books?
second hand or new...
I can't really pay for it at once, but I could do trades for ponies, customs or art, or if payment could wait 'til next month.

I just hope somepony can help.
Thanks!

I found them on amazon.com both new and used. Shipping to Sweden might be hefty. Do you have an equivalent to Amazon in Sweden or someplace close?
:biggrin: >_<^.^

I'll have a look at it - we might have a swedish amazon site, but honestly I don't know. ^^'

ETA:
allright, I've looked around and I can't find anything. found a couple sites for used books but I'm pretty sure it won't give much. found one vol 6, we'll see what shipping is for that babe.
I had a look on amazon, too, and the shipping is pretty high, for the ones that actually ship internationally :/

Ugh, I was afraid of that. I was looking for another cheap book and the book cost like $0.10USD and then shipping was $3.99USD for me. Really strange.

I posted about the crazy international shipping costs in another forum. I'd love to help more but I don't think I can do better than Amazon. :(

Good luck and I hope they turn up for you. How about Amazon in the UK?

How about this website?

[link on bottom of post]

RightStuf is a trusted online source for anime/manga and they appear to ship internationally (plus their books are a bit cheaper than buying them from other bookstores and they have all the Loveless volumes in stock right now)... I don't know how much shipping would be to Sweden but you could try a mock sale to see what the total comes up to.


Edit: It looks like Tokyopop was only able to publish up to volume 8 before they went belly up and Viz is going to be taking over starting from volume 9 which is set to be released in September of this year.


Edit 2: Ugh, I messed up the link earlier. http://www.rightstuf.com/rssite/main/ There's the correct link if you wanted to try this route. Jus search for Loveless.

Tokyopop died out?? Wow, I knew they were going down the toilet around 2006-2008 (my personal opinion) But wow, now they're gone...*Looks at her Manga library with some unfinished Tokyopop titles*... :shocked: ...crap...


I haven't gotten into Loveless but I do hope you get the remaining 8 volumes you need!  :hug:  I know I'll need to do some searching some time sooner or later to get these done. visitors can't see pics , please register or login

The Germany division of Tokyopop seems to be fine, but the U.S. one is defunct as of 2011.

Yes... hopefully publishers that are still alive and publishing in the States can pick up whatever Tokyopop NA left hanging when they went out of business.

ajfdlkasfhldjks YES That is awesome :D

Anyway, best I can offer is scouring ebay, I think Amazon has some volumes as well~

It's a really amazing series, hope you find them~!

I'm glad viz is continuing it. I was debating buying the japanese books just to have the complete set.
