single volumes or omnibus?

Post by vanityisdead »

when it comes to buying manga , do you prefer buying the omnibus or single volumes? i dont have a preference but in the case of aoi house , i bought it in single volumes . but with death note im buying the black editions because i only want the story and they are a good deal .

I usually go for omnibusses. It's healthier for my book-spending budget.

Personally, I prefer single volumes, since they're lighter and the gutter/cropping isn't so bothersome.

For the most part I prefer singletons, but I'll go with an omnibus if it's the only viable choice.

Singles for me. My bookshelf and my wallet hates me for it :P
