Taking advantage of RSA's in-stock clearance sale:

Fruits Basket Manga 23 - finally completing the collection after who knows how many years
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood DVD Part 2 - finishing this off before the supplies go bye-bye (EDIT: and RSA no longer has Part 2 BD available...)
Ga-Rei: Zero BD/DVD SAVE
Pita-Ten DVD - an old favorite finally out on R1 DVD after AnimeNation's failed attempt to license it back in the day

Anthem is the first thing I've imported that actually has English subtitles. Usually when I import its either a direct from Japan w/out subtitles, or a region 4 with english sub/dub (because no one in NA will release those titles). I do have two deviations: Midori: Shoujo Tsubaki (region 2) and Pale Cocoon (region 2).

Well, just got an item in the mail that was (for me) hard to find. Managed to get the ADV dvd release of Prefectural Earth Defense Force. If you consider the amount of money spent per amount of minutes on an anime title, then this is probably the shortest anime that I've spent the most amount of money on. Also got the Criterion Collection laserdisc release of Akira.

The Fruit of Grisaia Complete Collection BD
Future Diary Complete Collection BD
Lupin the 3rd: Jigen's Gravestone


Also a new BD player and surround sound system since my old one crapped out on me. I decided to build my own system this time rather than just getting a system in a box.

Expensive week is expensive. Anime cry

Just got a vhs copy of Bobby's In Deep. Pretty good condition though I did have to use the Tenso shipping company to send it to the US. Glad I got it, it was the only one I could find (not that I looked that hard)

Picked up the Soul Eater POP!s from f.y.e. while my husband and I were visiting our local mall. I now have both the POP! vinyls and the mini-versions from Funko's Best of Anime mystery boxes.

I wonder when and if they'll come out with ones for some of the other characters, though. Seems kinda sad that only Soul and Maka have POP!s and not any of the other main characters as well.

barely worth mentioning...

Chobits 001 soundtrack ...$0.25

The people at this goodwill/resale store have apparently decided that they no longer want to dedicate an entire wall to CD's that never sell.

Ordered:
Ghost in the Shell: The New movie BD and Evangelion 3.33 BD from Amazon, because RightStuf is annoying me. Now hopefully Amazon wont throw my stuff in a bubble envelope and stomp on it a few times as they often do.

Ghost in the Shell New Movie
Baka & Test Summon The Beasts (both seasons)

Yes, it's been quite a while since I posted to this site, mostly cause the Animenation forum is currently down for upgrades (any word on when it will be done?)

Waiting for My Little Monster volumes 12 and 13 (final) to be delivered. Very sad to see one of my favourites come to an end but at least I'll have a complete set Very Happy

Now I've got them all, I'm reading it all the way from the beginning. I'd forgotten how good it is. I hope you enjoy it too.

Just got a great box set of El-Hazard ld's. I was pretty stoked until I realized that I had mistakenly ordered El-Hazard: The Wanderer's tv series and not El Hazard: The Magnificent World ovas. I could return it, but I guess I'll just throw it into the ever growing pile of anime that I plan to watch some day.

I also just got in the Princess and the Pilot Premium Edition. The box and book are nice, but I gotta say I was a little shocked to see that a bluray made in 2011 has HARD SUBS. Really?

While I won't have officially 'bought' it until 11:59 AM tomorrow, I just backed the SKIP BEAT Kickstarter for $100 to get the DVD/Blu-ray combo & all the other swag (though while the swag's nice, I mainly just want the show itself on BD, so I'm thrilled it made that stretch goal!!

As of right now: 1,505 backers for a total of $207,607 pledged (of $155,000 goal)! Now to patiently wait until the proposed October 2016 release...
