+ 1 doujin
Selling doujinshi usually feels a little bit weird to me because while I do make the occasional mistake and purchase a doujin I don't want usually I have researched the fandom and found circles and artists that I like so I'm purchasing doujinshi that I'm keen on collecting. After collecting for a number of years though I'm beginning to realize that I really have to be even more selective because the sad truth is I simply don't have the space to store a ton of doujinshi. In the case of Escaflowne because I really adore the anime and it was the first fandom I collected doujinshi for I initially tried to get a hold of every piece of doujinshi I could because I was clueless when it came to doujinshi collecting. I definitely have my favorite artists and circles for Escaflowne but parting with any of them is difficult because I think things like, 'oh this is one of the first doujinshi I ever collected' and other sentimental nonsense hehe. Also, I guess since Escaflowne is an older fandom there are a ton of rare doujinshi that are hard to find or ridiculously expensive. Anyway, I'm going to start posting about older titles that I purchased years ago and plan to sell (wah!); I figure I may as well take one more look at them before letting them go and hopefully selling them to someone who takes care of them :)

This reminds me of how old Escaflowne is because this doujinshi is over a decade old! I really love the cover, it's very pretty and the title Shinin' does actually have a cool shine to it. Anyway, it's a pretty long doujinshi and there is a bunch of short tales in it, they usually only go for a few pages. I remember buying this on ebay years ago (and yes, it was one of the first Escaflowne doujinshi in my collection).
Scenes I really enjoyed:
* Van feeding a cute kitten
* Hitomi checking Van's temperature
* Van blushing
* Folken, Hitomi and Van dressed up as characters from Phantom of the Opera
* every time Folken shows up in a panel <3
* Millerna and Hitomi friendship moments (she rides up on a horse, they hold hands - lol, yes this happens, I'm not joking)
* Van / Hitomi kiss (has to happen due to us being deprived in the series? Um, actually there is implied coitus, but it is PG, not explicit)
