Questions
Q: Due to COVID 19 I am assuming that all shipping has momentarily stopped. Is this assumption correct?Asked by Mia J., April 2020
Q: Are the images provided manga that you send out? If so, if I were to buy a box, could I request Manga that I see from the pictures? Thank you so much for your response! Asked by Betzabe S., November 2020
No, it is a sample of manga we used to have but we constantly refresh our stock.
Q: Do you have a seinen box?Asked by John M., October 2020
Not specifically, but you can purchase our shonen box and make a note you would only like manga targeted to older audiences and we will do our best to accommodate with seinen manga.
Q: What is the difference between Shojo and SHonen and how used is the manga ? Asked by Devola D., September 2020
Shojo is romance, cutesy, girly manga.
Shonen is action, adventure, boyish manga.
Manga ranges from good to like new condition. :)

My books came in decent condition. If your gonna buy used books I’d recommend this service. Just remember though you are buying used so don’t expect flawless books. If it’s readable and not just stained and gross it’s a win.

I really enjoyed the subscription but needed to stop it because of bills after Christmas but I really enjoyed their service and plan to re-subscribe. I especially enjoyed receiving my December order wrapped as a Christmas gift which I absolutely loved. I highly recommend the subscription.

i wish you guys would consider putting earlier books, rather than starting someone off on book 20 or book 7

it was nice in the beginning but towards the end, the quality of the books was fair not the best got some with ripped spines and very stiff books (felt like the spines were going to break off as you read through the mangas i could see the binding strings) but overall was not too bad. I'd recommend it to people that want to just read and try new mangas. It was definitely worth the money I had paid, but at the end just felt like they stopped caring as much (maybe just due to the holiday rushes)

Books were shipped in wrapping paper.. only. Christmas paper that was ripped and books were damaged because of this. Company tried to make it right with a partial refund but this was below expectations. My nephew never received the first shipment and only received this one for December, which was supposed to be a 2nd order. Im not sure what this company is doing but its definitely a rip off.

This is probably the best budget friendly monthly subscription box for manga. Even tho it said USED its in a very good condition. Almost as new. There be no regret subscribing to this monthly subscription. Especially if your on a budget and you just want to read manga. Personally I can’t buy manga because some of them are as high as 10 dollars for new manga. But this is like getting 5 random manga each month for like 5 dollars each. Don’t worry about the word USED, i would of think of it as new. :)
Great gift!

I loved the manga I got in this box. I'm definitely going to renew at a different date. I aregionaly had a problem with the fact that they can not guarantee me a first volume in a series, however they gave me all but one first volumes and I am very pleased. Thank you so much guys.
