Well, I've been sitting on a topic idea for some time now, so I thought why not give it a shot?
The topic this time is, "Is there a manga you learned about from this thread and enjoyed so much, you bought physical copies of them?"
There's definitely been one for me, Horimiya. I remember Pokoko recommended this manga early on and after giving it a shot, I quickly grew to love it. Some time later when I visited a book store with my friends, to my surprise I found volumes of it there. I decided to pick up a few books to have in my collection, and after rereading them again, I felt I had to get the rest of them. So my next visit I picked up the remaining volumes.
Actually, there's another one I ended up getting, but I'll just leave it at one example.
So, are there any manga you bought for yourself after learning about it here?

I haven't but one day I'd like to buy Koe no Katachi (A Silent Voice). It's one of those stories that goes beyond the medium itself. It's like in anime with Grave of the Fireflies, Welcome to the NHK, or Serial Experiments Lain, where I wouldn't have a problem suggesting it to someone who isn't even into that scene.

Actually, the other manga I decided not to mention is Koe no Katachi.. xD When I saw copies of those, I had to buy them. I got all the copies I could, minus one that was missing. But yeah, that is one story I felt I needed to own.

Hmm. To be honest I hadn't given it that much thought. Hungry Marie and Uratarou immediately come to mind as one's I would want physical. Though I don't recall viz having updated Hungry Marie in forever, yet alone offering physical. I guess I should stop only looking through cyberspace for buying them and look through bookstores for once.

Is Hunrgy Marie being released in the west? I haven't seen volumes of it yet...
