I picked up the Little Battlers Experience (Danboru Senki) 3DS game off of Amazon for under 10 bucks this past weekend. I've never seen the show, but I figured what the heck, I own a good hundred Gundam models, so worst comes to worst I find the robot that looks most like a Gundam and power through.

I'm about a dozen hours into it now, and all I can say is, "wow, this game is way too complicated for its target demographic". I'm having fun, but I wish there was a FAQ online to help me out with stuff like how to tell whether something is a Strider frame or not.

Picked up volumes 16-37 of the Berserk manga to catch up my collection. They are all back in stock at various places so I figured I'd grab them all before they start going OOP again. Also picked up a few figures last month, the new non-scale Kotobukia Lelouch from Code Geass, 1/8th Trafalkgar Law re-release POP figure from One Piece, as well as Tatsumaki from One Punch Man and Sugawara Koushi from Haikyuu! Nendoroids.

My copy of Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi (Worlds Greatest First Love) Season 1-2 plus OVA's shipped with the above manga haul as well.. Sad its DVD only but I will take my BL on disc in any format I can get at this point.

Seeing as Gate is now up for pre-order, I just snagged the series up via Rightstuf.

A couple of purchases from the last couple of weeks:

Cardcaptor Sakura Vol. 3 and Akira on VHS - A silly purchase, but they were 50 cents each at Goodwill and thought they were fun purchases, even though we'll likely never watch them. They join the Tenchi Muyo! OVA VHSs I bought awhile back at another thrift shop.
Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle: Character Guide - Technically already owned it, but my copy had the issue of the cover constantly detaching from the spine. I rarely read or touched it as a result. This copy was at a local comic book shop for a 60% discount, and figured it was worth it to replace my bad copy.
Fairy Tail Vol. 16 - Trying to fill in some of the gaps in my FT collection! Although I unintentionally made another gap... I couldn't remember if I had Vol. 15 when we were at the store, and found out when I got home that I didn't. Oops. >.> But at least it was only a 1-book gap compared to the gaps I made when I went from Vol. 14 to Vol. 31...

Like Gguitar2764, I, too, am taking advantage of the flash Sentai sale...

Girls und Panzer TV Blu-ray
Girls und Panzer OVA Blu-ray
Kokoro Connect TV Blu-ray
Mashiroiro Symphony DVD
Golden Time Collection 1 Blu-ray
Golden Time Collection 2 Blu-ray

All told, I'm getting a few hundred dollars worth [at MSRP] of Sentai titles for $85.00...any time I can save on Sentai's expensive-ass Blu-rays is a good time!

I would like to have picked up a few things during the RS Sentai flash sale, but everything that I kind of want is already out of stock (Angel Beats and Nadia). Everything else is maybes or I already own. Its also kind of at a bad time as I've bought a few imports and along with the Kodansha sale that has stretched my anime budget for the month. So, I probably wont be making any more orders for a few weeks. Man I hope Sentai is ok, they've had quite a few sales lately.

Plus, I just got in OOP Steins;Gate LE and from the Viz sale Dorohedoro vol 20. The rest of my viz stuff is pre-order and probably wont be getting till June.

Welp, it's not like I could resist the Sentai flash sale either:

Another Blu-ray
BTOOOM! Blu-ray
Dusk Maiden of Amnesia Blu-ray
Kamisama Dolls Blu-ray
Kampfer TV Series + OVA Blu-ray
K-ON the Movie Blu-ray
K-ON Season 2 Collection 1 & 2 DVD
Listen to Me Girls I Am Your Father Blu-ray
Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions DVD
Nyan Koi DVD
Sunday Without God Blu-ray
Tamako Market DVD
To Love Ru Darkness DVD
Watamote No Matter How I Look At It, It's Your Guys' Fault I'm Not Popular DVD

Delightfully, those 15 items came to exactly $250.00 USD to trigger free Canadian shipping.

Another victim of the Flash sale here.

Hidemari Sketch 1-4 DVDs plus the OVA.

Since I usually buy their new BDs at 60%- if you think they're expensive, shop around-, I'm fairly caught up with them but I always forget about the sub only DVDs and 80% off is pretty nice. Getting them all in one swoop at the perfect 50 is just icing.

Another order, made when writing this post:
Needless
Yushibu
Lunar Legend Tsukihime

I may do a third order as well.
