I think I spent almost 100 euros in manga

I went to the local Comics Fair today downtown, and took a chance to get up to date with my collections. I didn't get any cool merchandising, as everything was Naruto-Bleach-DeathNote-Dragonball-Squeenix or pretty obscure stuff. I was tempted to buy the CLAMP in 3-D Land figurine of Chunhyang, and a One Piece bag, and a Goomba plushie, but as I was deciding the stands closed for lunch (except for one, leaving a honest "BRB going to watch The Dark Knight" note). So in the end, I only got comics. However, I couldn't find the RK Kanzenban volume so after having lunch myself in the mall food court -om nom nom Burger King brownies~- I went to FNAC to get it. I sort of wanted to buy at least one graphic novel that wasn't manga, probably an Usagi Yojimbo volume. But I saw a special edition of Monty Python and the Holy Grail at FNAC for 10 bucks, and I guess that's a less weeaboo geeky thing to buy than Usagi.

Either way, my buys:
- Fruits Basket 20 to 23 (finished!!)
- Fullmetal Alchemist 13 to 15
- Gintama 4 and 5
- Mushishi 6 and 7
- XXXHOLiC 12
- Rurouni Kenshin Kanzenban 1
- ...the Monty Python DVD, yeah
- New earphones for mp3 player

The US is so behind Spain. We are only up to 20 in Furuba and maybe 5 in Mushishi.

I think we might be ahead of you in FMA. But seriously I am so jealous you have finished Furuba.

Don't be jealous, since we get the shortest stick in Europe when it comes to so many things. Without going offtopic, I might've completed Furuba, but each volume was $12. That's $46 we're paying extra compared to you in the long run.

Oh, and by the way. Mushishi #6 started having stories I don't remember from the anime.
