N/M. Once again, the comment below me's what counts.

Like I've repeatedly said, this isn't just a typical Kickstarter, either. It helped a mangaka who's been down on his luck for a while get paid again for his work. So you're not just doing this for the goodies like you would elsewhere. You also get a feeling of satisfaction knowing your purchase actually made a difference in improving someone's life.

Happy it reached all the stretch goals. Still, a hard situation for those that are still mulling over whether or not they'd want the whole series in print. As the KS is pretty much the only chance you're going to get at that...
But, if it is hard, there are digital versions available. While this KS is going to bring about some changes to what you'll see in the current digital version (as they are touching up the dialogue), the digital one that is out now is about the best thing you'd get if you want to take a look at the series without parting with too much $.

Yeah it's a lot to spend on the books all at once, but the actual price per volume is very fair at least. Not like you're paying a premium for it.

I've met Matsumoto a couple times at conventions throughout the years. The sole reason I'm pledging at the tier I've selected is because Matsumoto is a really sweet and very humble man. Had he behaved like SUSHIO, who insults overweight fans waiting for an autograph, I couldn't be bothered.

Cutie: I don't think Matsumoto has the luxury of insulting anyone, given his condition. But yeah, judging from my 'correspondence' with him via e-mail, he sounds like a nice guy to me, too.

Good to see this completely funded. I expect any more people will back it, now that the complete series is guaranteed.
