I also bought Hanabi in Japanese and that Himo/Trains thing. And a Japanese Dominion tray. Still sad I didn't buy Machikoro when I had the chance, but I would have had NO room for it.
OT, on manga: I had to laugh at the reactions I got both times I had to pull a few volumes of manga out of my bags to make room. At the airport, extracting about five volumes so I could get my big bag down to 32kg: flight check agent and baggage handler - "Sugoi~!" On the second leg of my flight, pulling manga out of the outside pockets of my carry on, so it would be thin enough to fit in overhead bin: nice guy who was helping me wrangle my bag - "No wonder it's heavy, you've got the Library of Congress in there."
Good thing no one wanted to take a close look at the covers...
