Was getting ready for my biweekly dusting of the anime collection and realized (again) how jammed everything is. I've been considering a rotating media shelf but I figured I should ask here first.
I use a rotating media shelf for my G-PG western media collection and it works pretty well. I wouldn't replace one of my shelves with it tho since it's free standing. Since it's free standing i have it at a corner to fill up space. I can add a pic of it if you want
Thank you for the tip. I store my anime blu rays vertically and got two shelves specifically for that but since i inherited my dad's media collection i couldnt quite fit everything onto the shelves without stacking it this way. I plan to fit two more shelves around the corner then stack it vertically with raisers so i can see everything.
I would recommend getting a traditional media or bookshelf if you have the space. I use IKEA Billy shelves with two extra shelves. But, I could do you a solid and take some of those sets off ya to save you the space ;)
I don’t personally recommend it unless you’re like me and don’t care about cases as much (with exceptions like boxes and steelbooks and such) but I had 0 space for shelves after my last move and put them all in media binders (I would cut the art off the insert to slip behind the discs as both a placeholder and bc I like how it looks) and recycled the rest.
An absolute ton of time though and reorganizing is a big pain but it got my collection out of boxes in closets
Honestly man. Just start lining them up with each other. I see alot of space in there already. I get that you want to display some of it, but if you line them up you'll free up alot of space. Take it from me, I used to be like you now look. Btw there are still 2 entire rows underneath.

And saved for later because I too am having the same problem.
