( There are 3 kinokuniya shops in my country ) But because kino sells the Japanese AND chinese AND English versions ( If its published o/c ) and usually the chinese version is cheapest...
So it leaves me to wonder: " Hey, theres the jap version which I don't understand, oh look theres a chinese version, I can read that and afford it at the same time! "
Chinese: $6-9
English : $16-22
Japanese : $14-93 (those packed with DVD/goodies combo)
So these are my new buys for today!

So, my resolution to start building my Japanese collection died in less then 24hrs and yes. that Gyo manga's cover is holographic like a pokemon card :D

Chinese? Where do they sell, I can read traditional which is rare these days. And $16-22 for english, that's so expensive! In Canada, I can get them for around $10.

Not really rare. Taiwan releases (Kadokawa, Tohan, Tongli) are Traditional. Dono about Hongkong. Chuang yi are
simplified.

I see. I didn't rare in manga publications, but just rare in usage in general. When I speak to chinese people from china, no one understands me.
DLTE:
Traditional/Simplified is only in chinese kanji. Speech is same unless you're talking about dialect (Mandarin, Hokkien, Cantonese).

Yeah, as an HK'er I usually associate traditional with Cantonese. Whoops.
DLTE:
That explains it. I speak Hokkien and Mandarin with the only canto phrase I know is :" Diu le lo mo"
