I'm sure I will, after all as you pointed out it will be very useful to pinpointing the specific volumes I have so far and mark the ones I want for my next book spree; plus all the books that I havnt added to my databases in the last few years or all the sci-fi books I bought back way back in high school when I wasnt even keeping track but still keep around.

Again, thanks.

Hello,
Thanks for mentioning this site over at MAL. I have been looking for something like this for a while now. Would have left a thanks over at MAL but your comments are disabled there for the moment.

Be well

It surely is! Thank you for rassuring me about the fact that it's only a one-time thing, now I really have no more hesitation in buying it! =3

Hi~
Another little question: I already reached the maximum amount of uploadable books with a free account (200 books) and I was thinking of buying a lifetime account but I was wondering...I saw that it costs $25 but do you have to pay them every year? Or only once?

Ohh I see now. Thanks a lot, I generally understand stuff by randomly clicking here and there on the sites, but with this one I'm having some issues.
Thanks a lot for your infos, I got it now.

Hi shinkeikaku, I'm very sorry to bother you again with my dumbness but do you have any idea why this stupid thing is putting the Hoshi doujinshi I'm uploading as if they were other edition of this one: http://www.librarything.com/work/8355827/book/46564416 ?
And do you also have any idea of why in my library it shows that I'm the only one having a particular book when I copypasted it from your library and there are other people who have it? (this one for instance: http://www.librarything.com/work/8476825/book/46563022)

Also, how do you change the information you wrote for a book not only on your library but also on the book's page? Like, if you realise you had wrong information for example.

Sorry about the bunch of questions but I still don't get how this site works (and yes, I do feel stupid for that reason T~T).
Also thanks a lot for the star thing, that most definitely made sense and helped me to work things out! o/

Hello there!

I'm MomoHime125 from MAL. I'm jealous of your collection! :-)

I perfectly understand. Thanks a lot for the bother I'm giving you.
Maybe it would be nice to suggest them to get a way for non-registered users to contact them quicly if needed... I'll think about doing this if I ever succeed in registering.

Sorry to ask you this too, but since you understand Japanese a lot better than me... I guess probably you know Pixiv (http://www.pixiv.net/)? I looked at it and couldn't understand how to get the pictures, or look fot them. So I'm wonderig now, do you need an account to do all the stuff? Or it's just me being dumb?

I see, yokatta. T.T
Thanks a lot for the link but no, unfortunately I can't see it, it asks me to log in before. T__T I hate to ask you this, but could you please tell them about the problem? I really have no idea of what else to do (I'm so very sorry to bother you with this, if you have any other idea about how I could do please tell me T__T).

Shinkeikaku please help me~ T__T
It's all the afternoon that I try to get an account at jpqueen but I don't know why it gives me an error. And unfortunately, I really have no idea of what it is. T_T I thought it was because of the e-mail address but I tried with lots of different ones (even with the one of a friend that owns an e-mail at google mail) but it always give me the same error. And I have no idea how to contact them (can't find an e-mail on their site, just their address but it would be hell to write them by letter for a matter like this one)! T_T

This is a screen of the error page: http://i41.tinypic.com/2uzupm9.jpg
I wasn't able to take the whole message, but maybe this will help... Do you think you know what I'm doing wrong? ;__;

LOL. Well, I'm glad to take it then. XD I'm even planning on writing synopsis for the other two Pico OVAs ^^; (and the three of them are rated 1 on my list XP).

I see. =) I own lots and lots of doujinshi since I'm quite perverted. XD And also own lots and lots of manga (yes, I'm fanatical ù_ù) but I'm thinking of selling a great part of them since they are mostly Italian editions, and I grew to HATE Italian editors. I'll probably stick with scanlations and French manga for a while (since I go to France every year because my grandmother is French and lives near Paris ♥) and then start buying the Japanese ones on the internet, if I ever attend an acceptable level of Japanese.

Yeah, I'm coping you putting the original title and then the romanji in the comments. XD So thank you for the information! *_* I'm sure that will be really useful! *_*

I intended to ask you this on MAL, but since we're talking here now (and I'm answering right away, wow! XD) I'll ask you now. ^^ I really would like to buy stuff from jpqueen, but I was wondering is it really convenient? Because if you have to pay lots of money for the shipping/additional costs I don't know, maybe it's better for me to just stick with the Japanese people I met on eBay that offered their help if I'll ever look for Japanese stuff? Also, I only own a visa prepaid card (so not a credit card) which I generally use to pay by PayPal on eBay...do you think it will work for jpqueen too? Otherwise, do you know any other good website where I can buy Hetalia stuff (especially Hoshi, Maki Makimura, Asahi Chitose and Cocca doujinshi)? I so much need to own them! X( Even if I really should not spend money now, I want to buy Hetalia doujinshi so badly... T__T

Oh, Boku no Pico. XD Yeah, I don't reall know what passed in my mind on that day, I actually really dislike that anime. XP But since it didn't had a synopsis I just thought that I'd write one... (this shows my devotion to MAL: I totally intend of writing summaries even of things I dislike XD).

They even had the courage of being rude to you?! That sucks! D= I bet you dislike the site now, everyone would. =/ And that's so stupid to give credit to websites like wikipedia but not to you, or at least MAL. D=

Yeah, this sucks so much! XP But I guess I would have had to do most of the work by myself since we don't share a lot of doujinshi anyway. =( I wonder if I'll ever be able to upload them all here...@-@ Actually I'm quite surprised, I thought you owned a lot more. Are you still in the process of uploading them here? =)

I think your library is very clean now. =D It's so nice to look at it, every book has its original title with the transliteration in the comments, so nice! =D I totally should do that too, even because I can't read most of the titles of the Japanese books I own X°D (too many kanji XP).

posted by Loxaris at 6:32 pm (EST) on May 12, 2009

(ok, so now I see that this website doesn't like some type of characters. I hope I'll remember to not use them in the future XP)

posted by Loxaris at 5:44 pm (EST) on May 12, 2009

[WHAT?! I wrote a super-long comment and all that stayed was the first sentence?! So meeeeaaaan!! D'8 I lack the will to rewrite everything now T-T]

Oh yes you totally should, I think you're a great synopsis writer! ♥

I didn't consider that stalking either, but it looks like not all the people think this way. =(
I understand you when you say you'd prefer them to tell you. I think they should have at least credited you, if not directly asking. That was so rude! D=

I was looking again at the link you gave me about the "+" bug (http://www.librarything.com/topic/64526) and they're saying that is actually not a bug? 8| This means I'll have to add all my doujinshi manually, OMG! D8 I think I'll start tonight then, maybe copy-pasting the very few we share from your library and then trying to find the information somewhere on the net. T__T Your library here is so well organized! ♥

posted by Loxaris at 5:43 pm (EST) on May 12, 2009

Yeah, I read what you wrote in the club comments. I bet that was a really annoying (or creepy) experience, nothing to be surprised about if you dislike the website.
And to think that I've been called a stalker just because when I started being active on MAL I was member only of a few clubs and there was one I really liked, so I read all the posts in there, even the really old ones, and therefore became aware of a large number of information that one of my MAL friends wrote there. When he told me that his RL friends were calling me a stalker I actually was surprised and a bit saddened since I really didn't think what I was doing could be called "stalking". But then I just had the idea that fine, if they wanted me to be a stalker maybe I'll really try to be one! XD (actually, even if I wanted to be one I totally lack the time to XD)
Hence the picture on my profile lol.

posted by Loxaris at 5:11 pm (EST) on May 12, 2009

I'm still very bad at using this site. Hopefully I'll improve with the time. XP But yeah, I surely am more accurate and have more fun on MAL, since it's by far my favourite website at the moment. ;P

Gahh games, don't say it. DX I have a lot that I didn't even started because I don't have the time. *cries*
Glad you'll have more time soon, it's good to be able to do some things for yourself. ^^
Oh, I just had a look on HGM (the MAL club) and so you were talking about MU. I thought it was Mega Upload at first but then realized I got it completely wrong. XD May I ask what site is it? (just to know if I know it or not ^^)

posted by Loxaris at 4:27 pm (EST) on May 12, 2009

Mmh actually having manga and books separeted by creating two different accounts might not be a bad idea... I shall think this over. =P The good thing is that since you can put tags to the entries it would be easy anyway to find only the firsts or the latters if I use them wisely.

Unfortunately I haven't read ANYTHING in a long time. D= I barely manage to watch some currently airing anime, I hate it. X( I really should organize my life somehow so I'll be able to also read something. I need to get through my endless pile of books and manga somehow. =(

The DVDs...oh yeah, same problem with them too (but fortunately my parents and me have quite different taste, so we didn't buy any duplicates of them yet XD).

Well, at least is not something like that the "+" works only for paying accounts or something. X| Hope the bug will be fixed soon, that option would be quite useful to me... ;_;

posted by Loxaris at 12:39 am (EST) on May 12, 2009

I see. =) That's a good idea actually, since I guess MAL lacks too many things for you. XD
You don't catalogue books at all then? Since here we can I'll take the occasion to catalogue them too because with my parents' books and my own we really have no idea of which ones we own at times, and just end up buying copies. @_@ So I'll take the occasion to catalogue them here, even if I haven't read most of them (but at least I'll know that I have a copy in the house and don't spend money for nothing XD).

Oh and yeah, I confirm that the "+" thing doesn't work for me. ;_; When I click it it opens the doujinshi page, so I click on the "add to my library" link but it just redirects me to the "add books" form. ;__; Is it possible that it's a bug of the site? I really would prefer this option to the "you just can't do that" one. T_T

posted by Loxaris at 12:18 am (EST) on May 12, 2009

Then I think I'll just DIE when I'll add all my doujinshi @_@ (I think I own like 500+ or something). I tried to use the "+" thing but it didn't work at first. Maybe it was just my connection playing bad jokes to me? Anyway I'll try again...

Nice~ we already share some books other than manga here. =D I still have to read the DragonLance ones (time, time...x-x), but I already bought some since I completely felt for the covers.

posted by Loxaris at 11:48 pm (EST) on May 11, 2009

I see... Thank you for your help. =) But again, how do we add doujinshi? T_T I have no idea where to look for their ISBNs (and I really hope I'll succeed finding the Japanese, French and Italian manga ones, otherwise it'll be hell to add all that stuff T.T)

By the way...you have the Harry Potter books in Japanese? o_o Oh my, you really are impressive, I so look up at you.

posted by Loxaris at 11:26 pm (EST) on May 11, 2009

Yes I finally did. =D But I still have some problems to understand how this site works. =S It's not like MAL where you can just add to your list things that are registered in the database... After some attempts I was finally able to add some Italian books, but how do you add the japanese ones and the manga in general? Don't tell me you have to add all of them manually! o-o|||

posted by Loxaris at 11:08 pm (EST) on May 11, 2009

Yes, I was happy when I was finally able to get Amazon Japan to show up as my import information source! Now I just have to go through and add covers, tag things, and manually add my books that don't have ISBNs. This is gonna take a while, as my internet connection at home has been weak lately >_

Hi! I was just curious who your profile pic is of?

posted by Jenson_AKA_DL at 11:44 am (EST) on Dec 24, 2008

Hi! I watched the anime of Tokyo Babylon yesterday, have you seen it? It doesn't follow any of the manga sub-stories, but it was still interesting. Subaru always makes me feel sad, such a nice character for such awful stuff to happen to him! I haven't read Rayearth yet. I have the anime in queue in my Netflix account, but haven't gotten around to the manga. I should check and see if they have at my library. Hope you enjoy Her Majesty's Dog when you get to it!

posted by Jenson_AKA_DL at 8:13 am (EST) on Aug 31, 2008

Hi! I saw your comment about Silver Diamond and had to check out your library. Since you're looking for enlightenment :-) on different manga series I'd suggest Her Majesty's Dog. Kind of a shoujo/urban fantasy with a lot of humor. I'm really enjoying the series. I believe it is complete in Japan but it is still ongoing in the U.S. My only complaint about it is that the release dates are always getting delayed. Oh, and I see you're a Clamp fan too! I haven't caught up on all their work but have enjoyed everything I've read so far. My favorite by them so far is Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle.
