That's where I found Wallflower.
And they have Ranma 1/2 << can you believe that.
There's naked chicks everywhere in that manga. Lol.

I have no idea who picked those mangas out.
They were probably donated by some of the students.
Yeah. In England it's pretty hard to get manga anywhere. It is no where near as popular as it is in America and Japan, so we rarely get anything over here. There was a comic book store that had Love Hina but it closed down. Waterstones book shop has a little TokyoPop stand but that's totally it for miles. They are really inconsistant on lesser known mangas aswell, they have like 1,3,6,8,12,21 or something so theres really no point. They barely restock. So that's why I was really shocked about it!

In England there is only like 1 or 2 major anime conventions per year. In America and Japan there are loads! The biggest one in England racks up about 1500 people, sometimes not even that and the second has like 600. There are a few Expos in London but I don't know much about them.
