So, back in March, I pre-ordered off the NISA site the Toradora! Premium Edition for my brother. I'm assuming something happen between the time I ordered it, my marriage and changing my name on Paypal, and the release date of the set to screw up my order, so I never received it. I've contacted NISA several times with no response.

As of 11:44 this morning, my order on Paypal has expired and I decided to order it off of TRSI instead. Now to just wait for them to get more in. Hopefully I get it before my mom's birthday on August 1st. It would really stink if my brother got his birthday gift - which his birthday was back on July 6th - after my mom got hers. Anime hyper

Today I picked up the August Diamond Previews at the comic shop. This lists items mostly solicited for October. I mostly pre-order my manga as I get a discount and I can't trust B&N to get everything in.

I was looking at the Yen Press titles solicited for October 29th delivery and found Oninagi volume 4 of 4. It sounded familiar but not recent. After checking I found I had the first three volumes in storage. The reason it was in storage is that according to the final page, Yen Press issued volume 3 in May 2010. I had given up ever getting anymore of the series.

There was nothing at all in the listing to show that it had been four years since the last volume. I went ahead and pre-ordered the volume. Shocked

As part of my Otakon preparation, I got this free bag thingy that I wanted to use, but it has this unsightly company logo thing on it (I got it at a job fair). Thus, I determined I needed something to cover it up! I ordered this Gurren Lagann patch on Amazon. I need it to arrive before Otakon, obviously, so Amazon was the way to go this time. Even if it's from a third party seller, it should arrive within two weeks I'd imagine. It'll probably arrive while I'm on vacation this week I'm betting.

I also sadly learned that no brick and mortar stores seem to carry any nerdy patches anymore. I used to get tons of patches back in high school at Hot Topic or Spencer's, but now they carry nothing! Had to go online.

My copy of Senran Kagura's shipped. Soon I'll be able to enjoy bouncing boobs in high bit high def.

I've also picked up my copy of Sakura Trick volume 5. I'd just missed it last time I checked my box, but this time it's mine. Now I have a fifth disc to let rot unopened!

Vampire Knight Complete Series shipped out.

Also picked up Love Hina Perfect Collection for $16 in like new condition from ebay. I purchased this same set a year ago for $60 in good condition (and some sets are STILL going for $100-200+ not even brand new), so I'll probably keep the one I just bought and sell the other one in hopes of recurring at least some of what I paid last year.
