Three Japanese graphic novels, still in the original language, that require new homes.  While I'd be happy to simply have them off my hands as opposed to them getting tossed into the trash, the gift of a credit would still be appreciated.  Your choice!  (If you're interested in all three, one credit for the lot would still be welcomed!  Again, up to you.)

All three books are in very good condition save for some minimal shelf wear.  The Ah! My Goddess one shows this a bit more because of the metallic cover: when the light shines on it, you can see faint scratches.

The three books are:

  • Ah! My Goddess Colours (http://www.amazon.com/Goddess-Colours-Megamisama-karaazu-Japanese/dp/4063343790/ref=cm_wl_huc_item)
  • Saiyuki Volume 1 (http://www.amazon.com/Saiyuki-Japanese-Edition-Kazuya-Minekura/dp/4870255928/ref=cm_wl_huc_item)
  • I"s Volume 15 (http://www.amazon.com/39-39s-Vol-Aizu-Japanese/dp/4088728874/ref=cm_wl_huc_item)

To reiterate: I am willing to ship these to you for free if you'll take them.  Would a credit be nice?  Very much so!  But if it comes down to it, I'd rather clear them out than get a credit.  My room's too small to hold onto stuff indefinitely.

UPDATE: Some further information for those considering these: the age ranges are teens for the Ah! My Goddess book and older teens (17 and above) for the other two.  Ah! My Goddess has drinking and one or two subtle sexual references, but nothing graphic in nature and the images are pretty tame.  I"s has a semi-realistic fight scene, but nothing over the top.  It does have, if I remember correctly (as I can't read Japanese), some mature themes.  Saiyuki has both mature themes AND images, so definitely not for youngin's.  Hope that helps! :D

UPDATE II:  All claimed!  :D
