    Shônen JUMP: what do you do with them when done?

    Like This Thread!
    Personally, I keep all of mine so I don't have to buy the GNs, but I'd like to know what you guys do with yours.

    My shelfs are running out! I need storage!!

    Well, I keep mines.

    Though I heard in Japan that Weekly Shonen Jump is the equivalent to our "funnies" page, and that once they're done with that pacticualar issue, they throw it away...

    Well, I stopped getting Shonen Jump sometime last year. But all the Shonen Jumps I have are sitting there on my shelf.

    I don't get Shonen Jump monthly but I do get it sometimes and for a while I did get Shojo Beat every month. I keep them but I always buy the books of the series I read and even if I did get it every month I would still get the books. I like the size and the way the books look better, plus the extras they have in them.

    Considering I only have two volumes, they're sitting in my bookcase with my other magazines.

    I'm going to try to e-bay mine away, a year's worth at a time.

    If that doesn't work...trash time.

    The SJ I have autographed by Justin Cook is something I'll never throw away.

    Also, certain issues, like the one that has Kenshin's "Yahiko no Sakabato" story, I keep safe. The rest I just kind of throw whereever there's free space.

    Yeah, me too, but vertically...

    I'm glad my mom finally let me buy issues 5-6 off of the internet, I missed those but now I'll have all 51!

    If Shonen Jump magazines came in hardcover, you could smack people with them and use them as weapons in backyard wrestling.

    Hah! I wish!

    Surely I'm not the only one who has noticed how SJ changed the paper they used? My issue 1 has less page count, and yet...is heavier then my issue 5...

    If I remember right, didn't the older issues have more glossy/color pages? I remember during the first year of production, SJ used to have a color section in the middle in addition to the ones at the beginnings and ends. That might be why it was heavier.

    I usually keep my issues for about a year and then throw them out, simply because I don't have a lot of room.

    Yeah, I agree, even though I only have one issue of Shonen Jump which I got for free. I would never buy something with the intention of later throwing it away...well, except for trashbags...

    I keep my earlier ones on a book shelf. (Like the first issue to the September 2004 issue). The later ones I actually lay on my floor stacked up onto two rows and then put my fan on top of it so it can reach my bed. It's actually quite affective when I need a fan actually and dosen't really seem to damage the manga at all.
    Instead of just using this new signature to celebrate a thousand more post, let me list of all the great things you can expect of me on this board for 2012:

    ...... The same talkbacks you saw me do last year but with new episodes.

    .... What are you doing still reading this? Move to the next post already! .
