Overall, there is slight sun-fading. After having half my soul eaten, did the goddess take pity on me? Volume 1, including the cover, has overall sun-fading. There are no folds. There are stains like in the second photo and other minor scratches. This is a paperback stored in a smoker's room. This item is being disposed of due to a move, and will be discarded if not sold by the end of April. Please comment if you have a desired price.
