Natsume’s Book of Friends, Vol. 9

Read the whole thing in one sitting. We see cute yokais, and scary situations. I really was very anxious to finish it. Probably why I read it so fast. One again, I’m enthralled by the relationships between Natsume the boy and the yokais.

Natsume Takashi is gaining quite a Gang of Yokai friends who willingly come to his aid when he needs help. Natsume still does not like relying on others but he is learning. Hopefully he will not have to choose between the Human World and the Yokai World. I liked the "parade" of Natsume's Yokai friends that Mataoba the exorcist saw. Quite impressive.

I love the book of friends series I am slowly hoping to buy all 19 volumes

I really enjoy "Natsume's Book of Friends." It strikes up a sense of nostalgia for me. I can also relate to the main character, Natsume, and his loneliness. Beautiful illustrations.

Excellent! One of the best by Yuki Midorikawa. I love this Manga Series. Each volume that is released keeps me coming back for the next one.

I love this series. It grabbed my imagination and gently pulled me into a wonderful story telling experience. I get the warm fuzzies from the way the main character Natsume tries to help all the yokai he comes across. And his body guard, Nyanko Sensei is awesome! It's stories like this that keep me (and my wallet) in the manga/anime world).Up to this point, I've only watched anime in English dub. I fell in love with this series so much that after getting all the manga, I was ecstatic to find out they made it into an anime! But I was heart broken to see it was only in Japanese :(. Because I enjoyed this series so much, I ended up buying the collector edition (seasons 1 and 2) with English subtitles so I could still experience the anime of this series. Even if they never make this in English, I want to see how the story unfolds through the anime world!

Manga arrived here quickly , well wrapped, in perfect condition.This is the english version and it is exactly as you see in the picture and description.

Natsume's Book of Friends is a fantastic series and is one that should be read by anyone who wants to read a seriously good series! The art is beautiful and compliments the story and concept very well. Natsume is one of the best Manga characters I have ever read about and you feel very attached to him throughout the series. The story is full of heartwarming and heartbreaking elements and you really feel for all of the characters involved, which is often rare in Manga but Yuki Midorikawa has perfected this and it works continuously. Natsume is one of my favourite Manga's, in fact pieces of Literature that I have ever read.

なぜか、アマゾンにおいて、夏目友人帳の洋書コミックで、この９巻だけだ低価格になっていたので、試しに買ってみました。妖怪は”ＹＯＫＡＩ”となっていたりして、翻訳できない単語もあるようですが、概して英訳は非常に活き活きしていて、原作の味わいを壊さない感じです。友人同士のたわいないおしゃべりにつかえる表現がいっぱいなので、生活に密着した英語を仕入れたい方には向いていると思います。

I got the book without any problems, and safely packed :)
