I'm sorry if someone asked this question already, but I haven't been in this forum for long...
So, I'm just curious how many people here who read the scanlations go out and buy the Case Closed graphic novels? I bought a few already, but being cash strapped, I tend to buy mostly the tankoubons. The name changes in Case Closed sucks, too, so that's not really encouraging me any. I do buy the DVDs, so I have most of them except for two (Best Buy does not like Case Closed ;_; ).

I picked option one. I do buy 'em, and i've got 'em all that've been released. Sure, the name changes may be kinda lame...but still, i can live with it.

I collect them, though I wait a bit because the first printings are prone to serious editing problems. I might switch to the Japanese tankoubons at some point, if VIZ decides to start censoring certain things.
If you read the scanlations, and you have access to a locally licensed version, you really ought to support that version by buying the books. If you're offended by some of the changes your localized version makes, at least buy the Japanese tankoubons.
I kinda wish sites with English scanlations would take down the scanlations that cover what's in volumes VIZ has released or has scheduled for release.
Sorry if I’ve offended anyone with the preaching…

I mostly read the scans, because I don't have manga in my country, but I do buy them sometimes, if I have the chance.

I picked the last option. I'm in search of place to buy Japanese tankoubons without it being online (darn those shipping chrages... -_- ). So as soon as I find one, I'll probably start buying... if I have money...

I haven't saw them in my country yet... I would buy them if I did. I heard they would be coming here in August (I'm in the UK) -- but, I don't know if they changed the date or not. I still haven't saw them anyway... x__X;; Dammit...
The name changes really bug me though... I know that would drive me kinda crazy while I was reading them...

I have al the CC mangas except 5 and 7, In my opinion it's slighty better than the show.

I think the manga is a bit better than the show, too. ^^ Though, I'm still not sure about the CC manga... do they change a lot from the original? I know that they change the character names... that's annoying. x__X;; But, do they edit anything else, or is it the same as the original for most of the part..?

I've read the Viz scanlations and I just can't get into them. (Ysabet's got the whole set).
Everytime I'll start reading it, the 'Jimmy' or 'Rachel' names jolt me out of the story. Especially since they didn't change anyone else's names, it just -feels- off.
Usually end up walking away feeling disgusted and frustrated. >P *sighs*
However, I do get the japanese tankubons as they come out and have a complete set of Detective Conan in Japanese. As well as pretty much every series that Gosho has released at this point. ^^;;
