I got into doujinshi in 1999 and I have been collecting them ever since. Doujinshi is a term refering to fan made books by Japanese ( or in some cases other countries) artists and writers who form "circles" or a group to create a manga styled book that parodies well known anime, manga, tv shows, or movies. Doujinshi ranges from "gag" stories to romantic and even erotic stories. Please note that doujinshis are never meant to be taken seriously or mistaken for the original manga or anime. They are and always will be a work of fiction.
Wiki's entry on Doujinshi * May contain a mature discusssion* FAQ and notes
What was your first doujinshi you owned? I guess it would have to be a Gundam Wing and a Weiss Kreuz one. I was new to it.
What was the first doujinshi you ever saw? I believe it was a Weiss Kreuz one.
Will you be scanlating any of these titles/Can you scan this for me pretty please? No. I have no intention of scanning any of these doujinshi. This list is being compiled so people can have a reference guide so they can find the info they need to buy a copy for themselves and for me, so I can keep track of what I have collected.
What is your most cherished doujinshi you own? That would have to be the hardcover Devilman doujinshi by CLAMP.
