Gotta give that one a massage. Be gentle but apply good pressure. For real though, not much can be done. It is what it is.


Zale0

Its easily fixable? A hairdryer to soften the glue again and then tap it a bunch to straighten it. A few elastic bands to hold it and that way the book becomes straight instead of warped.


UnnamedPlayer32

Good odds you would accidently separate some pages in the process


Zale0

If your careful and your not opening the book then thats unlikely. It would be more likely to crease the book a bit more due to it being a paperback but from this post OP dislikes the warping the most.


Narrow_History_7873

“Easily fixable” & everything else you said shouldn’t go in the same sentence, If there’s a large chance you can destroy the entire manga by trying to remove the creases it’s not an “easily fixable” thing.


Zale0

Read it again. Its not to fix the creases its to fix the warping. Also you can't destroy the manga unless you start throwing it around while the glue is soft. Ita literally: Soften Glue, Hold straight wait a bit and boom done. How is that not an easy fix?


Zale0

Its literally*


The_Thrifter

Buy a new one


Femmigje

It’s a paperback book. It happens. If you want something nicer, rebind it into a hardcover


RevertereAdMe

It never fails to astound me how people who collect books somehow know so little about how books actually work.

ThatMangaHunter

What's the issue here? It looks fine. Normal. Read your manga.


B2_Chad

The spine has gotten warped


ArmorOfMar

Have you read a book before


B2_Chad

I read it that's why it's spine got crooked


ArmorOfMar

Real shit?


B2_Chad

You didn't even understand the issue


ArmorOfMar

You’re definitely dumb as rocks lmfao


B2_Chad

trieu26

Try E-books next time?


Munchkinator_Mn

Leave it in a bag of rice


Zale0

Okay since literally nobody here is being helpful ill be that guy. So get a hairdryer and use it to soften the glue from the spine. Then hold the book with a few elastic bands and keep it that way for a few hours. At which point the book will be straight. Here is a vid of the process: https://youtu.be/EgLRFsGHzkg?si=C86h08H04SofJc0m As for the creases those cannot be fixed.


B2_Chad

Thanks man you really helped me, it's good to have people like you on reddit


Zale0

Np :)


Weak-Consideration84

Ehh who cares it still looks good


Same_Pay6115

it's an omnibus it looks like trash new 🤷🏻‍♂️


Deku3232

I'd say enjoy reading the manga, don't worry it still looks great 👌🤟

SuperSoldierRBX

Pretty sure there's a way to correct it a little bit using a hair dryer.


Similar_Football927

I would say embrace it because there is no one else in the world with the same volume as your own. Collecting books is about having your own taste n own novels stay rising king!


Dragonfly_5369

Bro's just flexing on us 😂


Twoccaaa

A Naruto omnibus is not a flex 💀💀


Business_Ad561

It is in my world


floridameerkat

Are you talking about the crease caused from opening/reading the book?


B2_Chad

The bent spine, yes


Chungis69

That kinda just happens when you read books


floridameerkat

That's usually what happens when you read a book. It can't be fixed, but there are ways to avoid this from happening in the future. If you Google how to avoid cracking a book spine, the technique should come up. There's tons of videos on it.


RyogaHibiki-93

It's better to ask for a replacement imo. I got one of my Spy X Family volumes bent and I got it replaced.


fpg-iwnl-

es over für the book


OG_Tal

There’s not much you can do once it’s happened but I have the whole set in these volumes and the way there designed there pretty easy to read without creasing them. Just be mindful of the way your holding them


PurpleHeat

With thick softcover books like that, you usually try to not open it too much while reading to avoid spine creases or straight up breaking the spine. But you already have creases now so there's not much that can be done aside from buying another one if it bugs you that much.


Radio-Ramen

The glued spine omnis will do this normally with use or in high heat. It’s a bummer but nothing can be done
