(Pictures) Words cannot describe how happy I am right now.

So I'll let pictures do all the talking:

Seventy seven items in total. I just took a few quick shots, as I'm going to be busy for the rest of the day now, I think.

I've seen a topic or two on Hardcopy vs digital, and I must say, I'm without a doubt in the hardcopy corner. While it does come with some pitfalls (turning pages the opposite way with one hand is tough!), there's truly nothing quite like it. Even though I've been a hentai fan for about 9 years now, I was never really able to get into doujinshi until just recently. And even now, viewing it digitally just doesn't feel right to me. It's a hard to explain, but that feeling goes away entirely with a hardcopy in hand.

Also, there are a few that I'm now in possession of that I've yet to see uploaded on Fakku, be it on the mainsite or User Uploads, so I'll try my best to scan a few at some point, but I'll try double checking to make sure I'm not reposting something that has already been upload; as the quality of my scans might be a bit subpar. :P

To me i dont think it really matters. i only have two magazines and to me they are no different then on line to me really. I know its not hentai but it is porn. I think that porn is porn more or less. Im not in either corner UNLESS SOMEONE SWAYS ME!!

Well, I can honestly see why a lot of people prefer digital format. It has some pretty massive advantages (ease of handling and price), but I don't know, the tangible aspect of it all is worth it for me. I'm definitely within the minority, but I don't think I'll be looking back (of course I'll still consume both, I'm just forever on this side of the line, unless there are some major advancements).

Holy crap man, you have that Ishikei Clannad Doujin. Props.

Wow dude that is a lot! Great collection I'm envious!

nice collection.

How about this: I'll marry you, mooch off you for a bit, and then have an overly melodramatic divorce with you so I can take that stuff when we split. Sound good?

After buying a bunch of hardcopy stuff recently, I agree with digital format being pretty weak..

Seriously, after I picked up hardcopies of Ishikei and Tony's stuff, the digital stuff doesn't even do the art justice, regardless of censors/translations or not. Ishikei being a perfect example, seeing as scans look like crap compared to the real deal, and the colors from the scans are wayyyy off.

I'm envious of your collection though, you've got 70+ and I'm still working my way up to 20 :(

BTW, did you just recently buy all of these or something? That's a whole lot to be purchased in one short amount of time...

Nice Avatar, Firebathero!

If you can't describe how happy you are, Fap it off

Yeah, it was the very first one I picked up, and what really got me into collecting. As a post below this one says, it really does look absolutely amazing, so much better than a digital copy. Censorship is just a small price to pay.



Yeah, it was all purchased pretty recently, in about a month span. Got lucky and was able to sell some stuff for a massive profit, and I couldn't think of anything else I wanted but more doujinshi. So I splurged more than a little. I also found that making bigger orders are well worth it. Shipping is a bit of a bitch, and obviously the shipping goes higher with a bigger order, but the more items you add, the less it becomes per item.



Even though I'm in the MJY corner, I can't help but love FBH. And trust me, I have been taking care of the second part.

I have 3 Doujinshi's in my room!
I plan to get more, but they'd have to be mostly visual considering i cannot read alot of kanji !

Im jealous, I need more hardcopy doujins

Wow, this thread was bumped. :o

When I took these pictures, I had about 80 doujinshi total.

Now I have several boxes filled with doujinshi and the tankoubon.

It's gotta be nice to own an actual copy of these, but I dunno....fappin with one hand and holding the doujin in the other is more uncomfortable then anything.

:/

I have a shelfs and boxes full of ero art books, comic lo, bee and other ero mags, doujin, comiket doujins set and other forms of hentai, but it easier and cheaper to buy hard drive and download the stuff... i don't think i have the room for what i have just in my small hdd.

Yeah, the digital format is certainly easier in that aspect, but my collection isn't driven entirely by the desire to fap. Though the quality is usually far superior to that of scans, so it can help fapping if you can overcome the awkward position you have to take with some of these doujinshi to keep them open. I'd say it's a mix of wanting to support the artists, having something neat to collect, the enjoyment of flipping through pages reading what I can/looking at the art, and even the slightest hint of morality in it.






Yeah, space constraints are tough; instead of having all my goods displayed (albeit in a hidden area) everything is currently still packed away in boxes. I just don't have any shelving space to put everything at the moment; and the amount of hentai on my computer easily dwarfs my physical collection. Of course downloading is cheaper, but no amount of fapping to a download beats the pure yayifications that result from opening a new doujinshi you haven't seen before and flipping through all the pages.
