My shelf isn't in my place of living as it's a bunch of "useless" trinkets that takes valuable space.

From what I remember:

  • Kodama from Princess Mononoke
  • Chikiro and Sen from Spirited away.
  • First volume of Youtsuba! in Japanese
  • old Lego forklift
  • a bunch of postcards from Secret Santa exchanges
  • clay elephant
  • two or three spatial logic puzzles
  • doctor who coaster
  • a rock
  • a jar (I wanted to buy some figurine and pour white silicone over it but recently I have put Minecraft squid plush inside)
  • metal Minecraft chicken
  • a bunch of pins from different fandoms
  • half-finished model of appollo 11 lander

After writing this out it certainly screams "That's definitely Ludrol's collection" as I am not really obsessed over one particular thing or genre.

Last couple of years I buy t-shirts as they aren't as useless as figurines.

I have my little merch shelf with Rem from Re:Zero and Albedo from Overlord

All my books are digital.

I am not confident enough to have a bookshelf filled with the kind of LNs I read. Same with the merch, I would be questioned if I had posters or figures of Myne or Mile around my house. (Not that I have any visitors anyway)

I have visitors, but they all know my hobbies, and if they had a problem with it, they wouldn't by my guests. So I can proudly display my merch (I'll post a picturelater)

@Myne@ani.social I hope you are going to post a picture of your bookshelves! (And the life size Benno and Ferdinand punch bags)

The punching bags are in the 8th layer of the dungeon (the one for people who don't return their books or make dog-ears on the pages).
