THIS IS WHY I AM POOR

Feb 19, 2012 20:20

Today is the release date of so many Giant Killing doujinshi that I might just keel over and expire from the mixture of joy and knowing that I certainly can't afford everything I want to buy (bad month for spending thanks to several unexpected expenses). This is probably my biggest weakness for spending money when I really shouldn't, and I just ( Read more... )

AAAUAUUGHHH DOUJINSHI. MY GREATEST WEAKNESS. I CAN'T EVEN READ ANY OF THEM BUT I STILL WANT ALL THAT PRETTY ART. Lmao I forced myself (WITH SOME INCREDIBLE WILLPOWER) not to get a One Piece doujinshi I wanted, yesterday, AND THEN PROMPTLY SPENT THE SAME AMOUNT ON A ONE PIECE FIGURE I WANTED AAAAAH WHY AREN'T I MADE OF MONEY????

eeee! i really hope GK gets popular enough FOR MORE OF THE ANIME AAAAH. ;;

HOW IS IT SO HARD TO RESIST. I actually think I have near 0% resistance skills. I'm sure I'd get more out of them if I could understand what was going on, but art alone is enough if it's my favourites characters/pairings, and a lot of the time I can make an educated guess about the rest of it. This time, though, I simply CAN'T afford everything I want and augh, WHAT IF THERE IS NEVER ANOTHER CHANCE TO BUY THESE BOOKS? This is like the ONLY thing that makes me want to get a better paid job.

That would be THE BEST EVER.

I am still holding on to some hope for that actually, seeing as the series keeps getting more and more popular. And there's enough material in the manga now to support a second season of the same length.

Oh cool, it must be. I tried looking for a page like that a while back but I never managed to find anything. I would also love to go to something like this (with a lot of money of course!). And if you buy direct from events like this sometimes you get nice extras as well. I'm sure a huge event like Comiket would not be so fun to attend because of queues and crowds but a GK only one would be AWESOME.

\o/ Doujnshi!!!!! I love those Only Events; there's a Yondemasu yo one coming up in March and I can't wait to see what pops up!

There's so much GK stuff I love it <333 No, you're not the only one stressed. There's one circle who never puts anything out in shops; it's either you go to comiket/sparks/etc or you're just out of luck.

Your bank account will be sad, but think of how happy your bookshelf will be!!!

YES, it's like AAAAH all at once there's so much coming out. I just wish I could afford it all without having to think so hard about finances and how not to run out of money, LOL. I'm looking forward to more Azazel-san too, there's some really nice art in that fandom, it surprised me when I first got into it (wasn't expecting it to be anywhere near that popular). I might have to be more strict with myself there but GK is still my favourite and I have low powers of resistance for it (so basically I have already justified spending a lot of money oops ( ... )

XDDD Yes for the nice art!! This one came out last year, and it's not even funny how bad I want it. My fandom buying is pretty balanced between Prince of Tennis and One Piece. There's the occassional SenBasa and Yondemasu. Oh, there's this lovely 40 page GK one! I should be getting it in the mail soon, and I'll definitely scan it when I do! <333

Lol at justifying purchases. You know, everyone has something they spend money on, this is yours. Don't knock it =)

Yeah, it's super unusual for a circle to be event-only. I've hired someone for comic city sparks and winter comiket to visit their booth, but they've all been sold out. Luckily, they're putting out an anthology in for Haru, so... /crosses fingers

innerchorus February 20 2012, 22:14:04 UTC

Hnngh that one looks gorgeous! For that fandom my MOST WANTED is actually by that same circle (this one!) but even though it came back into stock not long ago it sold out super fast and I missed it again. That GK one looks really cute as well.

How about Y!J auctions (if their books show up on there/are not too expensive)? I've contemplated auctions for some that I want that are out of print or whatever, but so far always talked myself out of it (mainly because I've wanted to order other stuff at the same time anyway, but sooner or later I just know I'm going to cave and go for it). Hope you manage to get the anthology, at least!
