It's a story of love, friendship and an absurd amount of silliness that is timeless. I can't wait to finish the series so I can read it again. Rosario and Vampire is a wonderful series that I am proud to have in my collection. Pros- The box art is gorgeous and different on both sides so you can choose which side to display. There is also a small extra comic in full color. The price is super affordable. It prices out to $4.25(or so) a volume. Another pro, in my opinion, is the toned down fan service compared to the anime. I saw the anime first and I loved it, but it is over the top in some sexual aspects. You still see occasional breast or panty shots, but they are few and far between. Cons- The size of the box is burdensome. Because the art is vertical, I cannot display on my shelf in a way that looks good. Review: I Waited Six Years For A Super Deluxe All In One Package.. Now You Don't Have Too! - Normally.. buying manga isn't my type of thing, but this is really a steal. (6 years ago) I was at my local book store one day and read the first chapter of this strange start of a great series. I was so hook on it that I legit needed help because I would just stay there hours on end reading chapter after chapter. I told myself that I would stop reading these great novels if they ever made a giant collectors box with all of them in.. Fast forward 6 years later, you can probably see where the premise of me writing this review is. I loved the anime but the manga is where its at, the tone between the two is so different. For starters, the anime adaptation has more of a watered down story and.. well, fan service to boot. Yes, I did enjoy it so much that I watched the season multiple times. But the manga, is "soooooooo" good in terms of story. I can at least note that the first chapter and the last chapter in terms of art style is different in a positive way! Each book is something to behold and towards the end of season two they start to give mini poster in the last few volumes. If you are into manga and love monster lore and a little bit of harems then this series is for you and the story starts to develop in a beautiful rose towards the end of the series. *Will update with pictures soon*

My No. 1 Best Underrated Manga of the 2000's!
It came packaged very well and comes with every volume of the series + a minicomic. The manga box is absolutely magnificent and even seems to shine somewhat under good lighting. Definitely recommend this series! Not only is it better than the anime but is also worthy of a re-make with all the extra material the anime series omitted!

Beautiful box set
The box itself is beautiful and sturdy and holds the manga safely. The volumes are made of quality materials and tell a great story. Lots of character development you won't see on the anime. If you liked the anime series you will LOVE the manga series.

Finally got the manga many years later and it's worth it!
The anime adaption of this series was the first one I ever watched and it got me into anime despite the fact that this anime was not really good. I was always told the manga was better and while I did want to read it I just couldn't stand reading it online (I don't like ebooks), I was very happy to find out that it was professionally translated into English and in a nice collection too. 24 Volumes for ~ $120 is very reasonable considering that old manga/light novel volumes go for like $10 each. Everything arrived on time and there were no issues, for some reason Volume 13 of Season 2 is upside down for no reason at all (printing mixup?) but that doesn't really matter much. Each of the volumes come with a dual-sided mini-poster or one one-sided poster which is twice the size of the dual-sided ones. There's also a mini-manga in color too (to the right of the Season 2 Volume 14 book). All in all, a great purchase!

Came with everything in really good condition!
I was afraid since it was listed as a "Book Supplement," that it would for some reason only send the volumes of manga without the box set. It came with everything in really good condition though! Only one cover had a very tiny tear near the spine, but for the price at the time I ordered this ($111USD), that was nowhere near an issue for me.

I got the product even quicker than amazon told me it will take to arrive and every book was in there. At first i was scared as i saw some reviews saying they got duplicate books but no they were all in the package and it looks awesome. I'd recommend getting this if you love the Rosario Vampire series or have nostalgia about them from when u were a kid.

Desde hace mucho que ví el anime, aunque siempre me quedé con la duda de su final, ahora que compre esta edición, fue la mejor manera de concluirla, ya que es de buena calidad y su presentación y empaque tambien, la recomiendo ampliamente.

Keine Probleme bei der Lieferung, sogar einen Tag früher als angegeben. Das Produkt wurde direkt übergeben und nicht einfach vor der Haustür abgestellt, da es nicht von Amazon direkt geliefert wurde. Das Produkt wurde absolut unbeschädigt geliefert, da es in mehreren Lagen weich und relativ stoßfest verpackt wurde. Die Box ist sehr schön verarbeitet und macht sich gut im Ragal ob geöffnet oder geschlossen. Der Preis von 125 Euro für 24 Bände in einer Box von hoher Qualität ist für ein neues Produkt eigentlich unschlagbar. Für Sammler und Fans ein wunderbares Produkt.

This was my first manga series, the one that really captivated my interest in manga. A little old, Nearly as good as the ones we get nowadays but still the one that you cant stop reading until its over! Thankyou Akihisa Ikeda!
