It breaks my heart to say this, but this month, my second manga home, Manga Kissa 10 is closing its doors. No more maids. No more mangas. <\/p>\n
Because of this, they are selling all of their mangas for the price of P50\/tankoubon. Despite this, you can only buy the entire set of mangas and not by piece. If you buy a series with more than 30 volumes in it, you get a 20% discount. When I visited Kissa 10, a good number of the good mangas were already disappearing. Some of my favorites were still there, but Touch and Master Keaton were no longer there. I managed to get some but I had to stay within a particular budget. If only I can save all the mangas there, I would. ;A; So many mangas all gone. <\/p>\n
I’ve had lots of great memories with Kissa10 and I really wished the cafe would last a longer. But life in this island is very difficult, and more often than not, people would rather spend their 500 pesos in a restaurant than in a manga shop where they can only read. I will miss Kissa 10 greatly. This would only mean losing access to some really great mangas. <\/p>\n
The shop will no longer be in operation starting this week, but they are still open just so that people can buy the mangas off their shelves. Manga Kissa 10 will be open until June 30, from noon to 8 p.m. Their mangas are already P20-P30 per piece… so enjoy… those who can still enjoy it. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
