Fruits Basket Collector's Edition Complete Manga Set Vol 1-12 by Natsuki Takaya.

I bought this set after reading the reviews, fully prepared for the possibility the first four books might be replaced with the sequel series. I was okay with that possibility, because I want to own the sequel series eventually anyway.However, when they arrived, I was pleased to find my well packaged books held the full set. They were tightly bound and protected. All of the books are in great condition.I have not had the chance to read through them, though, so I cannot speak to whether or not pages are out of order. I will update of something is amiss.

This is the first full manga series that I have ever read. I watched the original show for this series in the early 2000s and watched the remake from 2019-2022 recently and it was just wonderful, so I had to read the books to find out more about these characters!My favorite part of this series is the character development shown in the three main characters (Tohru, Yuki, Kyo). They all worked through different traumas and came out stronger on the other side.I also loved the primary romantic relationship that forms in the series (not mentioning character names to avoid spoilers!) because they learned not only how to love someone else, but also how to let someone love and care for them as well.The show does do a good job of showing the character and relationship development, but the books give so much better detail.I 100% recommend this series as an intro to manga. This boxset was affordable and comes with bonus pictures in each book which is nice as well! Overall, very happy with the purchase!

All of these books arrived in great condition. They were purchased for my wife as a gift and she loved them. This is a blast from the past and has a wonderful and compelling story.

Great quality

I love these! I cannot believe how well they were packaged to avoid any damage just how I like it :) I’m ready to crack these babies open and read! The first few pages having full color art is stunning 🤩

The collection was right and in brand new shape!

Arrived in great condition and and the right books.

this was one of the, if not THE first series i'd read when i was younger, and since the original tokyopop prints are no longer made and as a result, rather expensive, i'm happy to have these! the translations are a bit different, and there are no fun little author's notes in the margins like the original prints, but overall, very happy to be rereading this series. (:book 7 came a little damaged, however, but it's nothing that makes the book unreadable and it's very much still in one piece. just a dent on the front and a white scrape on the back, both no bigger than a dime.
