Off-gassing probably isn't too much of a worry with black and white tankoubons. Ink transfer from pressure is more of a danger with color pages than black-and-white but I would still avoid stacking them long term. If you don't go over seven volumes high, you'll probably be safe for a while. Maybe if you rotate them from bottom to top every few months. Being short on space is never a fun situation. I eliminated most of my hardcopy book collection to save space. Plus, the Fakku digital versions look so good on my large screen, I never even opened most of the hardcopy books in the first place.
I will definitely invest in a big shelf. So I'll have them stored like that for a few months at maximum. About off-gassing, you think it's enough to open the doors to the shelf every day and let them breathe for some minutes?
Fakku manga look amazing on screen you're right about that. But if I just need to pay $10 more to get the hardcopy with amazing quality, it's hard not to. It's also amazing to know you own the digital and physical version for me. The digital for a quick wank and the physical for the more cultured, physical erotic session. And they look and feel great in the hands as well. I almost went digital only but I love the sharpness of the art in physical manga too much.
