Bookstores here don't even consider offering Funkos.
We have two Gamestops (who have a lot of merchandise including Funko), one comic store, one game store and several media stores who all offer them (more or less, as I said, the game stores have like 10 at the moment). So bookstores use their space more wisely x'D

Oh, it is a Manga? But I guess there is an Anime as well, right?

Oh, I forget about GameStop. I hardly stop in there anymore, I buy my games off of Amazon because of convenience and it's usually cheaper. Man you have a lot in your area. I bet we have more, I just don't venture from the places I know how to get to without getting lost.

Yes! It's based off of the manga, but they changed the ending of the second season so I'm curious how they would start a 3rd season if there is one. (I don't think there is enough content yet to create one)

I am living in a quiet part of the largest city within 1 hour by car. So obviously, we have quite some things here x'D
Funny thing is I can reach the second GameStop by foot 5 minutes after leaving the first.
And you are right, prices are ridiculous there sometimes. Especially for second hand games. Sometimes the second hand game there costs the same as a new version bought in a media store. If the prices differ a lot or I cannot get the game else, I buy from GameStop. But normally I prefer to buy them new and give some of the money to the people who created the game. Because if one buys at GameStop, publishers and artists and so on get nothing :/

Oh, but maybe the plan on ending it after the second season? They end so many animes before they actually "have a real ending" :(

My husband and I kinda live in the middle of nowhere now thanks to his job, but we still have a gamestop nearby. I rarely buy games from them though. I usually just search for pops.

I love Seraph of the End. The manga is beautiful and the latest updates have been wonderful. I doubt the anime will have a 3rd season though. They kinda shot themselves in the foot with the last 2 minutes of the season 2.

Real talk for a moment: Can we Go back to that month that Pokemon Go was released. Everyone was so happy and the only people down my throat were old men at work who complained about a cell phone app kids were playing. Can we have that? Please.

I live in the middle on nowhere too. I mean we have a relatively large city, but like good stores are all closing. The malls are mostly dead, which is why I turned to online. I don't buy clothes online because I'm sonpicky. So if we want to do a good clothes shopping we have to go to the Chicago suburbs, which is about 2 and half hour drive, 3 if there is some traffic.
But for games stores, that reminds me of a used game store that's family owned. They have more retro games (which is more like PS3 and will, still having trouble wrapping my head around that) but they carry super Nintendo games and the original PlayStation games too. They also have quite a movie collection to with some manga (not a whole lot, I mostly saw one piece).

See! That's why I don't think they will, but if they tried, it will be really interesting. They could just make it like it never happened. I've seen that before. Or they could do like the did with nanatsu no taizai and made a little intermission to get it back on track. I haven't read the manga in a year because I've been wanting to reread it from the beginning but I keep doing other stuff. And I own every volume so I want to read from there. But the reason I stopped reading it was because I couldn't find a good online reader since batoto went kapoop. I have one know so once I get myself time to read it I will enjoy every single second of it

Lunar, what kind of awesome job does he have that allows you to live in the middle of nowhere? Me wants too :mccool:

2 to 3 hours to go shopping? Wow, I guess you would go berserk here.
Our cities fight each who has the best shopping mall and more stores. So we have *counts* regional capital, the secret regional capital (everyone calls it that because it looks nicer and people love it there, we have the ghetto city (where I grew up. It is pretty run down, but still has some stores and is currently building the largest clothes shopping mall close by), and three more larger cities. And then we have some malls and stores in between. Like this
https://outlet-in.de/wp-content/uploads ... center.jpg
All these grey buildings are little shops with clothes or cutlery. It was some old glass and cutlery factory that has been turned into some shopping center. The rest of that town is made up of living space and a public swimming pool that is kept natural (green water, no use of chlorine). And it is always full x'D

Surprisingly he works for a college. But this town is basically just centered around the college and nothing else happens here. Once you drive out of town its another 4 minutes until you hit another that’s half decent. You have to drive an hour and a half to hit a city. We have one mall here and its also failing.

I woulf be interested in how they could fix that ending. At least its only one detail they got wrong and its not like Claymore where they straight up made up their own ending because the manga hadn’t finished yet.

That's super cool. So I guess, everyone living around that college either works there or is a pupil/student? Or related to some?

I wish our cities and towns around here had competition like that. There are quite a few mom and pop shops around, but I just haven't gone because most of them don't pertain to what I want or need, you know. There are also clothes boutiques, but they are so expensive and I'm too fat for the clothes (I'm working on that issue). But do I want to spend all my money on one shirt or go shopping in like one of the two other clothes stores and buy 3-4 shirts for the same price?

It would be interesting. They could completely ignore the ending. There was one that did that, can't remember what it was, but I just remember being confused for a while. That reminds me of some anime I watched as a kid that I read the manga of shortly after and also being confused why some event weren't lining up, like the ending of the anime wasn't in the manga because they made there own ending.

Man, I need to get back to posting a lot for flower points, but there is no way I'm going to be getting every item in every color.

Keep posting, Rubie! At least to get enough flowers for all the items you want :)

A little bit competition is good, but I think they should rather build apartment houses instead of another clothes mall... They are opening and closing quicker than we can look. But people do not find houses or apartments easily. :(
