I usually don't buy manga because I know that like anime, there will eventually be a box set or two in a year. But these 590+ page books are tight. The covers are repetitive, but kind of cooler than all of the originals combined. They take up less space too. Honestly, the lower price and space saving were enough for me to give them a try. They really show you, by comparison to the anime, just how the first years tend to merge 2 or 3 chapters in 1 full-fledged freakin' awesome episode. Really makes you aware of all the filler and lack of quality that seems to affect our modern anime
