I believe the bonus material is the bonus booklets (from the Japanese limited editions?). It's mostly three or four-page stories, silly one-page comics, some character profile stuff, and conversations between Kouga Yun and her editor.

The omnibus editions also have the front and back covers of the second included volume as textless color pages, which is really nice.♥

Glad someone finally came out and said what the "Extra Stuff" was, I asked on VIZ's facebook and never got a reply from them.

Having TP's 1 through 8 it really doesn't seem to be worth a double dip....

Well, Besides that one color page that TP left out of one of it's volumes but then, That's a lot of money to drop just for one colored page.

Wow, thanks for the news. ^^

I'm honestly pretty surprised Loveless has continued to do so well- I didn't think it had that many fans. :P Perhaps this'll encourage Viz to pick up other dropped BL licenses?

Same! The LJ/DW fandom, in particular, seems smaller than I'd expect for a series that sells this well and has so many id-pleasing elements.

But Loveless exists in that nebulous land of ambiguity where it isn't quite BL.

Wow! So glad that there's still many fans who are reading Loveless and purchasing it :)

i've been buying the Japanese releases as any good fan would do, so naturally picking up where TokyoPop left off makes Viz better than who ever picked up 07-Ghost.
this also makes there be no reason (and why sure there be?) for me to get the omis.

I've been supporting Loveless as much as humanly possible since the day I discovered it. Among other things, I bought the original anime, the hybrid, Japanese and English versions of the manga, the novels, and now the Omnibus editions, which do include some very cute extra footage. I've been enjoying rereading the series thanks to those releases.

I'm so happy to see that the story is still making enough of an an impact to rank. That's awesome news!
