What's the longest manga series you've collected in full?

For me it's Rurouni Kenshin at 28 volumes.

Right now my record is very low.

Yotsuba&!: 4 Volumes.

(Must collect more manga)

Collected in full? All the series I'm following are currently either still running in Japan or not fully published in America. Right now, though, my record would be 14 (English) volumes of FullMetal Alchemist.

The longest series I've collected is definitely Rurouni Kenshin, at 28 volumes. I've got a few other series that go over 20 volumes that I'm in the middle of collecting or am planning to collect in the future, though. XD

*runs to go check* That would beee...

Fruits basket! At 17 vol. I don't have a very diverse manga collection at all, though, sadly enough. I really should go and pick up some more whenever I get the extra moola.

Haha! I own the first Fruits Basket manga and the fourth +Anima manga (I don't really suggest reading +Anima, it's not the best manga ever :/)
I have friends with money -nodnod- they own the manga, I read them. Very cheap that way ROFL!

I like +anima, it's a cute series :)
I agree it isn't the best thing ever written, but it's cute enough that it keeps me going :lol:

Well, the one I collect is very old. They are pretty hard to find, but are quite cheap on clearance sales:

Glass Mask Volume 1-42
Warujo (Bad Girl) Volume 1-37

My collection is quite old. ~1993. They are hard to find, but not expensive since they are in clearance sale.

Glass Mask (Garasu no Kamen) Volume 1-42
Warujo (Bad Girl) Volume 1-37

It is hard to find any recent shojo manga that is as long and well written. Glass Mask, a story about a girl who love acting with great passion, is animated recently, so some people may be familiar with it. Warujo on the other hand is about a dumb and ugly girl working in a big company with no future; but she falls in love with this guy who is way out of her league. And thus, her quest to "upgrade" herself to become closer to him.

Collected in full? Um...

<_< Okay... That was dumb. Yet true. Seriously though, I've got 14 volumes of DBZ. most of any one thing I've got.

FMA is the longest I've collected in full... Most of the time, someone will end up lending me a few volumes, so I don't buy the whole thing... XD

Glass Mask (Garasu no Kamen) 42 volumes
Warujo (bad/evil girl) 37 volumes

...AND Bleach is now at 21 volumes, still the longest run in my collection.

I do kind of wonder if the total bulk of 'Pokemon' titles owned by No. 2 Son qualify as a larger collection, but I'm not sure if they are 'complete'.
