Secondly, the way checking the last post/scrolling through the thread works, a brief post like Burbo's followed by an enormous picture post like Sharky's are both going to show up at the same time on the screen, so a lot of people won't have the chance to register that they shouldn't be looking below Burbo's post before they've actually looked below Burbo's post - especially since images attract the eye moreso than text.
Just want to clarify my stance - basically this quote right there. Don't wanna poo poo on you too much Sharky, but just wait a couple posts before posting images like that. Basically:

It's a shame Japanese volumes are often smaller and more fragile than their American printings cause they certainly look a lot nicer.

I wouldn't say more fragile, the bindings just a bit thinner. Paperstock is still really nice.

Slightly-related to volume construction: I also got a volume of Anko-san along with Helck, and it's really nice. Thick l, partially textured cover, looks and feels really nice. One of the best vols I've bought.

Fragile might not have been the best word, but the Japanese volumes I own have certainly proven to be comparably less sturdy than their American counterparts, and I tend to take good care of the things I own.

None of them are torn or anything, but reading them I always feel like I've gotta be a lot more careful.

The only japanese volumes I have are Groundless which are a bit on the cheaper side probably. It's a paper slip jacket around a slightly thicker paper binding, but the quality of stock for pages is super crisp so I don't mind too much.

Last I checked the not-Baki manga was winning.

(And yeah its literally not-baki complete with :biotruths: and the mystical power of martial arts and muscle)

The second was some crap nonsensical gorefest. More of a borefest really.


Though honestly if the vote was held outside of Japan Mob would already be running and Helck would be in the works, the above might be because of the much wider reader demographics that Urasunday can reach in Japan.
