Still Creamy After All These Years

I usually don’t like to show off, but grant me an occasional exception. After nearly 21 years, yesterday, with the assistance of a friend in Japan, I completed my collection of Cream Lemon, Shin Cream Lemon, and Cream Lemon: Ami Sorekara hardcover film comics. I bought the first one way back on September 25, 1989. I’ve been picking up additional ones as I could find them ever since. They’re not all first editions – in fact, most of the 16 volume first series are second editions. And not all of them have their obi, but especially considering that I’m an American collector, I’m still pretty darn proud of this collection, regardless.

The collection includes 16 volumes in the first series, 8 volumes in the second series, and 4 Ami Sorekara volumes. The photo includes three additional hardcover film comics: Cream Lemon Special: Dark, Tabidachi – Ami Shuushou and Lemon Angel.

Below the fold is my entire collection of Cream Lemon anime books (with the exception of the Ami Sorekara movie program, which I seem to have misplaced).
