After nearly 21 years, yesterday, with the assistance of a friend in Japan, I completed my collection of <i>Cream Lemon<\/i>, <i>Shin Cream Lemon<\/i>, and <i>Cream Lemon: Ami Sorekara<\/i> hardcover film comics. I bought the first one way back on September 25, 1989. I&#8217;ve been picking up additional ones as I could find them ever since. They&#8217;re not all first editions &#8211; in fact, most of the 16 volume first series are second editions. And not all of them have their <i>obi<\/i>, but especially considering that I&#8217;m an American collector, I&#8217;m still pretty darn proud of this collection, regardless.<\/p>\n<p>The collection includes 16 volumes in the first series, 8 volumes in the second series, and 4 <i>Ami Sorekara<\/i> volumes. The photo includes three additional hardcover film comics: <i>Cream Lemon Special: Dark<\/i>, <i>Tabidachi &#8211; Ami Shuushou<\/i> and <i>Lemon Angel<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>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).<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/complete_CL_collection.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/complete_CL_collection-450x337.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"complete_CL_collection\" width=\"450\" height=\"337\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-22847\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/complete_CL_collection-450x337.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/complete_CL_collection-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/complete_CL_collection.jpg 1030w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Cream_Lemon_1_receipt.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Cream_Lemon_1_receipt-311x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Cream_Lemon_1_receipt\" width=\"450\" height=\"651\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-22848\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Cream_Lemon_1_receipt-311x450.jpg 311w, https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Cream_Lemon_1_receipt-207x300.jpg 207w, https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Cream_Lemon_1_receipt.jpg 888w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I usually don&#8217;t like to show off, but grant me an occasional exception.
