So I've just been looking through my manga collection, reminding myself what I've got and where I was up to on a bunch of series, and I've noticed something weird. For some reason, a bunch of the spines of some of my books by Tokyopop have faded alot since I've been away. Only some of them though, others from the exact same series that where sitting right next to them are fine. Has this happened to anyone else?

It happened to my collection of Sundome but that's about it. Where did you store them?

Also just purchased Yuri manga called Citrus. Anyone heard of it? Read it?

No I don't think this has ever happened to me. Then again, I'm really cautious not to make creases in the spine.

Funny you should mention Tokyopop. They recently shut down their US publishing division.

It's almost a given that it was sunlight since the bookcase is directly across from the window, it's just really bizarre how inconsistent it's been between volumes. I've got all my Tokyopop manga on the same row of the shelf (coincidentally), and the sun hit's them all equally, but out of the 17 books only 3 are faded like that, the rest are fine.

And I wouldn't say recent, Tokyopop has been dead for years.
