Detailed Information on Available Editions:
Spirited Away Film Comic: All-in-One Edition
Released in February this year, the Spirited Away All-in-One Edition gathers all five paperback volumes initially published by Viz between 2002-2003. The first two volumes came out just before the film`s US theatrical debut. All five original paperbacks have been out of print for many years. Despite being an 856-page hardcover, its MSRP of $35 is quite reasonable, especially considering the original paperbacks retailed for $10 each over two decades ago, making the series comparatively more expensive at the time of their initial release. The forthcoming Princess Mononoke All-in-One Edition, due January 27, 2026, will feature a similar length.
Kiki`s Delivery Service Film Comic: All-in-One Edition
The Kiki`s Delivery Service Film Comic was first translated into English as a four-volume series in 2006, with each volume priced at $10. While Volume 3 can still be found at its original price on Amazon, the other three paperbacks now command prices of $20 or more for pre-owned copies. Viz Media launched the Kiki`s Delivery Service All-in-One Edition last November with a $30 MSRP, making the current price of $17.63 for this 584-page hardcover an exceptional value.
My Neighbor Totoro Film Comic: All-in-One Edition
My Neighbor Totoro`s Film Comic`s English translation originally appeared as a four-volume paperback series from 2004-2005. All four paperbacks are no longer in print. This All-in-One Edition offers a fantastic opportunity for both long-time fans and new readers to enjoy the comic adaptation without having to search for expensive, out-of-print paperbacks. This 584-page hardcover was the inaugural release in the omnibus project last August and often sells at its full $30 MSRP, so saving five dollars is a smart move.
Ponyo Film Comic: All-in-One Edition
The Ponyo Film Comic first became available in English in 2009. While all four paperback volumes are out of print, volumes 3 and 4 are still listed at $10 each on Amazon. However, volumes 1 and 2 are prohibitively expensive in pre-owned condition, sometimes reaching $40 and $67 respectively. Viz Media released the Ponyo All-in-One Edition on July 22. This 592-page hardcover is a remarkable value at $22.22, down from its $30 MSRP.
For those who deeply appreciate the artistic direction of Studio Ghibli films, these books provide an excellent way to `pause` and delve into the intricate details of these beautifully animated narratives. Since these comics utilize original animation cells and illustrations directly from the movies, they can also serve as an affordable alternative to traditional art books. Although they are smaller than typical art books, the illustrations retain their wonderful quality in this compact format.
