Hello all...

Tokyopop and Borders had an exclusive box that came with Vol. 6 of the manga. Now that Vol. 12 is about to come out, does anyone know if they will be doing something similar? It seems a little odd to have a box for only the 1st six volumes.

I loved the anime and the manga is even better (not surprising!). I'm going to go broke. <sigh>

Thanks for any info!

They had a box with Inu Yasha volume 19 (I think), but they didn't have boxes for any other volumes. Just because they released one box, doesn't mean they are going to release enough boxes for all of them.

Plus, I still see those boxes at stores. I'm not sure the boxes sold that well. If they didn't sell well the first time, I doubt they'll release more.

Sorry, no box. Tokyopop release pretty good boxset and LE box, but they are not consistent. Don't expect one anytime soon.

Well, given the nature of Fruits Basket's popularity I think that'll we'll see more box sets of this kind in the future. Not the near future, however: as others have said, TP isn't consistent with their box set releases.
