Does anyone know where to buy English manga?

I know where to in Australia...

Chapter's and Ebay. I don't know how international Chapters is though and I don't know where you are.

Thanks for your replies. How about in Japan? or China?

I know Dark Horse do the Official English Manga's of a few popular ones.

They may be able to ship internationally? Not sure.

your local anime/manga store...? come on, even i know of several, and i'm in some small backwater city.

Perhaps he's not american? I mean, recently we got a Borders store open up here in my home town (Swindon, Wiltshire, UK), along with an Asda Walmart! Anyhoo, before that there was like nowhere nearby to buy manga!

Forbidden Planet sell quite a bit of manga, assyuming the sales on in all of em which it should be they have 3 £6.99 manga's for £15 (assuming he's in the UK that is), I got Love Hina 1 - 13 yesterday due to this sale was walking out the door then saw vol 2 so went back, if I'd known then that its only 14 parts long I'da got vol 14 as well. Good sale but bad in that it makes you buy a lot of manga, overspent badly that day.

Amazon ~

Shonen jump...you could suscribe to it...you can buy it at BAM or WALMART and maybe even your local grocery store

In our place, there's no store that sells manga but currently I'm in Japan and I was wondering if anyone know where to buy English manga here, because most are in Japanese (obviously!).

i'm not either...

"backwater city"

That's what gave me the impression you were American. Never heard any other than an american use that phrase!

"Suncoast" is a Motion Picture store which sells anime and manga related. They're in malls.. near you. :mellow:

Then why do you want an English manga, if you have all the manga right there in Japan?

He wants English manga because he can't read japanese, I think. :mellow:

Exactly! :sweatdrop:

well... i download most of my manga.....

and I can buy mine from Kinokuniya... there's english, japanese and chinese manga ^^'' *Sydney, Australia*

i guess if it's in Japan, it's not that common to have english manga.... i still prefer downloading though

Yeah, I guess so. I'll try to go to that Kinokuniya bookstore here in Japan. Perhaps they'll have some english mangas. I hope I don't get lost. Thanks.

eheheheh, my city is also very tiny, but try borders or barnes and noble's. i go there all the time, and its weird... there is like a cult of people who take like 100 books off the shelf and spend all day sitting in a corner reading them O_.

barnes and nobles, internet. (walden books but that's only in new york brooklyn.), amazon. borders. most bookstores have them and they ven have thier own section call manga. (no really?)
