Have now lost my excellent Ikea kitchen knife as well. Things hate me.

English

Flaubert's Parrot
Coraline
The Winter Queen
The Turkish Gambit

Japanese:

Onmyouji vol 1-- read the unread latter half
Onmyouji- Dragon Flute

Shin Petshop of Horrors 1 & 2

Hatsu Akiko-- Peony Lantern

Hikisakareta Tsubasa-- Soul of the Dragon King 5
-- which is *not* the end of the series. There's one more volume, 純白の魔王, which is OOP and available only from amazon.jp's bloodthirsty lackeys. (And as my card expires *in* February of this year, they won't accept my card any more.) So I must resign myself to never finding out what happens.

Ah, I hope you can find it then! What is Book-off? I am assuming that it is a fair or something similar?

I see, well.. *pets* I.. Hmnm... Well.. You're not going senile. Full stop.

Book-off is god's gift to manga readers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_Off). Second hand bookstore chain, all through Japan and in New York. Also Vancouver should I want to buy manga without crossing borders. Costs an arm and a leg to get there, though. There are times I wish I lived in a smaller country.
