I'm going back to Singapore for about 10 days starting next Saturday (25th June)
I was wondering if anyone was interested in english manga from Chuang Yi publishing.

Chuang Yi is based in Singapore which means Singapore prices (about NZD10 per manga - which is at least half what borders sells them for) and, unlike tokyopop, their manga have removable covers (yes, those manga with removable covers are from Chuang Yi)

I'm having 5 slots with a maximum order of 3 manga per slot.

Check out their catalogue...
which includes, Black Butler, Ouran High, Haruhi Suzumiya, Hellsing, FMA, Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles and Vampire Knight.
...and if you're interested...

please bold the manga you want most. So I know to keep an eye out for that one the most~ This is because I can't guarantee I'll be able to find all the manga you ask for, I'm only there for 10 days after all > >
I will update this page with my manga hunting results while I'm back in Singapore~
oh, and please tell me which # of that series you want~ eg. Black Butler #1
last day to place orders will be on the 23rd June (this coming Thursday)

slot 1 - Ithuriel: Saiyuki #10, Are You Alice #1 and #2
slot 2 - Kristen: Vampire Knight #12 and #13, Tsubasa #19 (#20 and #21 if can't find Vamp. Knight)
slot 3 - Waifu!: Black Butler 5, Blaue Rosen #1 and Blaue Rosen #2
slot 4 - Kicho: Trinity Blood #6, #11 and #12
slot 5 - Icarus: Ouran #17, Are You Alice? #1 and #2
only extra slot - Lucca: Trinity blood #13[/size]

PAYMENT:
I'm sorry if this is all confusing > < I've never done this before~

I'll buy the manga first, and then we sort out payment when I get back to NZ.
ORRRRR~ you convert NZD to SGD and PM me regarding paying in advance~
Within Auckland: I can do city pickups. You will also be able to pickup at the 9th of July meetup but let me know beforehand.
Outside Auckland: Will sort postage out when I get back~

Sign me up for Are You Alice. Didn't even know it was out in English. Can I get back to you if I want to add another?

By ox0kristen0xo. 17/06/11, 05:05 am

Am very interested!

Would like Vampire Knight Vol. 12 & 13 (if you can get them :))

And Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle Vol 19 (get 20+21 as well if you can't get the Vampire Knight ones)

Will be at the Auckland meet up so we can do the trade then ^_^

Thanks so much!

By mystix-candy. 17/06/11, 06:20 am

Ooh! I was afraid my thread wouldn't get any replies and that'd be really embarassing xD

@Ithurial: Sure you can get back to me if you decide you want more manga~
so at the moment it's just Are You Alice #1? or both?

@Kristen: yup! we'll trade at the meetup :'>
Vamp. Knight 12 & 13 and Tsubasa 19 (/20 + 21)
I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get Vampire knight though x3
But if I don't get enough people to fill slots, you can have all 5. 5 manga will probably cost you NZD$50+ though because of the currency difference > >

T-they have two? Both then!

By mystix-candy. 17/06/11, 06:35 am

^ apparantly they do! xD
http://www.chuangyi.com.sg/new2/ecatalogtitle.php?title=Are+You+Alice%3F

they were both released last month according to the site~

By ai-scully. 17/06/11, 07:25 am

OMG WAIFU~! nerghuiwdnmilmb

And I'd love to use your... Service~

....Black Butler #5 comes out on the 21st this month~
Blaue Rosen is like my fave manga... So Blaue Rosen #1 and Blaue Rosen #2

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME YOU WERE GOING BACK TO SINGAPORE?
Ok... You might of mentioned it... but I was probably distracted!
So hmph. XD

By Kicho. 17/06/11, 08:47 am

A big thankyou for doing something so nice. :) I love Chuang Yi translations, they include the omake sections, and the font they use is so much cleaner than what Tokyopop uses.

Could I get Trinity Blood volumes 6, 11 and 12? Very Happy

By mystix-candy. 17/06/11, 09:42 am

@waifu: don't worry! I won't be gone long ;u; I'm sorry I didn't tell you.. we only booked the tickets a couple days ago..
my service? I'll see you tonight then~ ...OH YOU MEAN THE MANGA THI- OH.
anyway! xD Since BB#5 it's pretty recent, I might not be able to find it at the bookstore near my grandma's house ;w; BUT I'LL DO MY BEST~

edit: WAIFU. I CAN'T FIND BLAUE ROSEN O-O WHAT AND WHERE IS IT ON THE CATALOGUE THINGY?

@Kicho: n'awww >///< you're welcome â™¥
Yes! I prefer Chuang Yi too 8D (and not just because I'm patriotic.) I had a feeling I wasn't the only one who liked them so I decided to take these requests >w<
I'll get Trinity Blood #6, #11 and #12 for you x)

- Sadly I can't be doing this when I go back to Singapore in December for 6 weeks ;w;" This short visit to Singapore is.. because of family matter~ So I don't have to bring back many things to Singapore.
and that's why I have space to bring manga back here for y'all! x)

By Icarus. 17/06/11, 10:26 am

Could I get Ouran vol. 17, and Are you Alice? vol. 1 & 2 as well please?

major thank you for doing this! <33333333

By mystix-candy. 17/06/11, 10:33 am

You're welcome, Icarus! > < <333
So, If I can't find Are You Alice, would getting just Ouran be okay?
K, all slots filled now! c:

I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get Ouran, Vampire Knight, Trinity Blood and Black Butler for people.
Never seen Are You Alice so I can't guarantee I can find that :'<
BUT I'LL DO MY BEST!

You guys have until the 23rd (Thursday) to change / cancel your orders
I've got exams on the 25th right before I fly off ;w; So you don't wanna go cancel on the 25th and have to deal with an angry Nadi who's back in Singapore attending to her critically ill Grandfather..

By Icarus. 17/06/11, 11:09 am

Thats fine just do what you can~

and I hope your Grandfather is ok D;
<333333

By Lucca. 17/06/11, 12:09 pm

Could you get me Trinity Blood volume 13? I would also like the set of the first three Blood+ novels. Buying it as a set is a lot cheaper-only $12.90.

But Trinity Blood 13 takes priority for me so if you have any trouble with the Blood+ set then don't worry.

I'm in Welly so I'll need it shipped by the way.

Thanks for the service!~

I hope you enjoy your trip. The Merlion is always pretty cool. I was there on New Years and it was wonderful <3

By azeria. 17/06/11, 04:03 pm

O-Omg Chuang Yi released Saiyuki Reload v.10?? THERE IS HOPE OF ME FINISHING THE SERIESSSSS.

By Sebbiesawrr. 18/06/11, 01:38 am

Aww too bad the slots are filled.

By Lowkey. 18/06/11, 01:50 am

How in hell's name did I not realize volume ten of Saiyuki ? Xhhxyhzhzgh can I get that as my priority manga? /clearly not paying any attention.

By mystix-candy. 18/06/11, 02:56 am

@Lucca: I-I'd love to help you out but I already filled all the slots ;___;
If I have space and my suitcase isn't overweight, I might be able to get just your Trinity Blood #13.
wait, you were in Singapore for New Years? o-o WE COULD'VE HUNG OUT TOGETHER >3<
I'm sorry my country has bad singers btw. The New Year's countsown wasn't very good xD (except Sezairi <3333 )

@Sebbie: I'm sorry ;_;
Just incase my suitcase has space, just tell me which 1 manga you'd like c:

@Ithurial: xDDD It's worth going back and checking the catalogue a few times c:
I'll add that as your priority manga then~ I doubt I'll find 'Are You Alice?'so I'm glad I won't have to go back empty handed for you > <"
----

Also, weirdly, it doesn't say on the catalogue but Chuang Yi also do Kingdom Hearts 1, Chain of Memories and 2~

Spoiler:

Just so the slot people know c:

Also, I will only take back a max of 15 manga. (the rest of my bag space will go towards my clothes shopping and own manga shopping >w<" )
So I can either get 3 manga each for 5 people..
or 1 manga each for 15 people.
So slot people: please think about which manga you really want so if you end up not really wanting it, I can help out a couple other people who'd like manga > <

/big post lol

By Sebbiesawrr. 18/06/11, 03:37 am

Oh no its fine ^^ i'm not in any rush to buy manga :3

Have a safe trip!

By ai-scully. 18/06/11, 01:28 pm

I'll give up my Blaue Rosen for other people.... (its in the English manga catalogue Waifu.... XD)

By mystix-candy. 19/06/11, 08:48 am

@sebbie: thank you, dear! ^ ^ <3
@Waifu: don't worry! Sebbie isn't in a hurry to get any manga so you can keep Blaue Rosen on your list :'>

also, it has come to my attention that I might not have enough money to get everyone's manga B|
...would people be willing to pay in advance? ;w;" (message me)

By Lucca. 20/06/11, 04:10 pm

haha, it's all good. Trinity blood thirteen would be nice but don't feel too pressured Very Happy

Best to just enjoy your trip while you're there.

You were in singapore at New Years too? Too bad we didn't meet up >_<

I don't mind paying in advance if it's needed. to be honest, I wouldn't have that much money to buy so much manga as well, haha.

Just give me the details and I'll get it through Very Happy

By mystix-candy. 21/06/11, 05:28 am

21 / 6 / 11
so far: Kristen, Ithurial and Kichoare wanting to pay in advance~
and I've gotten Kristen's payment~

I suggest paying in advance because I don't know if I'll have the money on me to buy everyone's comics otherwise ;w;"

you guys have until the 23rd's evening to send payment off (so I get it by the 24th. I don't wanna be rushing around with money matters on the 25th when I fly off right after my last exam > < )

By Kicho. 21/06/11, 10:10 am

Uh, I think you may have gotten me mixed up with Lucca. o.o

By mystix-candy. 24/06/11, 03:37 am

alskjcbudsichwejda- you're absolutely right orz.
I NEED SLEEP.
/corrects post.

24/6: I've gotten payment from everyone who wanted to pay in advance 8D <3 (Kristen, Ithuriel, Lucca, Kicho, Icarus)
I'll do my best to find you your manga, guys! > <

By Kicho. 24/06/11, 09:18 am

Thankyou. ;o; I hope you have a safe trip. <3
