Quest to Collect Every Shounen Jump

Have you ever wonder how much it would cost to collect every single issue of Shounen Jump Weekly (週刊少年マガジン)? That means every issue since its first launch in 1968.

Well, I found this very interesting youtube video that shows how these Japanese people went on a quest to locate every single issue. Its an amazing video. Before you watch it, try to guess how much the total cost would amount to.

So there you have it, an almost 1.2 million yen with 3 missing issue (7th, 8th and 9th). Its simply amazing how people can just collect such magazines. I normally just throw away my Newtype and Hobby Japan. Maybe I should also start collecting them.
