Description

One of the new and extremely popular series from GanGan magazine!

The story revolves around 4 boys who have been together since kindergarden and are now in high school. The stories jump around, sometimes in kindergarden, sometimes in middle school and most of the time, in high school.

The story is about friendship, growing up, and just having fun. Extremely soft and clean art.

Comments

As seen above, the books are in mediocre condition. While the book contents are in great shape, the covers and book sides are slightly dirtied (because they are white) due to long use.

Description

This is the official doujinshi anthology for the Gankutsuou (Count of Monte Cristo) anime. It also contains character information, episodes guide and exlusive interviews with the main seiyuu team: Fukuyama Jun, Nakata Jouji and Hirakawa Daisuke.

This was an exclusive anthology because it featured contributions by a lot of popular BL authors (from Biblos who published BeBoy magazine) such as Yamane Ayano, Higuri Yuu, and Minami Haruka. There are also color illustrations and the book is 300 pages long.

This anthology was published by Biblos which went bankrupt in 2006 so the book is no longer in print.

Here’s the list of the authors:

Comments

The book is first print, in excellent condition and comes with the obi-strip. The obi-strip is slightly worn but it’s considered an extra slip of paper. It also comes with a postcard of the cover illustration by Yamane Ayano-sensei.

The book is artbook-size (fourth image) and has a soft cover. About 20% of the book is colored and an image album music CD is included (third image). You can also see Sugisaki-sensei’s signature (second picture) at the back of the book.

“Lagoon Engine Einsatz is the story of Sakis, a girl who will become a man, and King of Lagoonaria and wield the Godsword, Lagoonverse. Sakis is one who can use the powers of the Gods, and so she protects the kingdom with them. Her enemy is the intriguing Arcrave Gutlerfurwan, who commands the fabled Black Ship. On top of this person’s arrival, Sakis must deal with the awakening of old and new gods and the protective barriers of Laggonaria collapsing. Sakis deals with the changes occurring in her world and her own personal change from a young girl to a man.” — quoted from Anime News Network.

Comments

As seen in the first picture, I’ve kept the book inside the original shrink-wrapping with the limited edition sticker label. The book was read through once and is in like-new condition. In addition, the special edition CD included at the back of the book is still sealed. I’ve not opened the seal nor listened to the CD before.

The limited edition of Lagoon Engine vol. 1 shown in the fourth image above is NOT included in this sale. It’s just there to show the size difference of the book vs the usual tankobon.
