when manga are serialized, and when volumes are published, the contents stay largely the same, so many Manga have extra things in the volumes and box sets as a little "thank you" for purchasing the content. These range from afterwords or bonus illustrations, in the case of volumes, or posters and stationery in the case of box sets.

I want to know what examples of these "extras" you've seen over your time reading manga that you've really enjoyed.

For me, personally, I have two favorite examples. One is the ever-iconic SBS in "One Piece" where all sorts of questions get answered, from real lore clarifications to incredibly odd questions and marriage proposals.

The other is the Afterwords for each volume of "My Lovesick Life as a 90s Otaku", I find the way that the author draws herself and her editor very amusing and dynamic.

I am not sure if the Isobeyan chapters of dead dead demon's dededede destruction are extras but if they are it's insane with how important they are

Wanted to come back to this and add an example of a box set bonus. My personal favorite (of the 2 I've ever bought) was this pad of post-it notes that came with the box set for Wotakoi. It's not exactly practical to use, tbh, but very cute!
(Sorry if the image doesn't work, it's pretty hit or miss for me...)
