That would be because FB isn't one of the daily deals. My mistake. I saw it under changed items and jumped to baseless conclusions. I'm so stupid! GOSH!

Now, it says 12+ days of Xmas. Does that mean there's gonna be a 13th day or does that refer to the sales actually ending on the 18th.

EDIT: And now that I've double checked TRSI, the Fruits Basket thinpak is no longer for sale at all. OOP maybe? Who knows...

For the past couple of years there has been a 13th day with the extra day having sets of sales.

Overall 12+ Days of Anime Savings not bad better than last year at least I don't recall buying anything that year but still not as good with the 2006. Although the quantity of the shows in this sale has increased it seems my interest (or possible the quality of the shows...) has noticeably deceased.

There is a few this year that I'm considering getting but the sale seems no better than some of the stuff in the weekly special.

Haruhi was hands down the best deal especially considering they just had that Bandai sale. To anyone who doesn't own it yet: but it from this sale. You will be punching yourself later if you don't.

On the thirteenth day of Christmas Santa Kleckner practically stole our wallets.

Since there's so much stuff, I'm just going to link over to it to save me some time. Also, while you're there, you can look at the other twelve days and fight your urges to break the bank.

I was really hoping for the AMG premium collection to be added here. Since Media Blasters are a bunch of sticks in the mud and won't let TRSI put there stuff in the bargain bin, I thought I'd have to get used the whole thing used. This, though, makes everything ~$11 each and a lot cheaper than getting everything through Amazon. Yay for Santa Kleckner!

The Haruhi Bundle is first, but this is a very close second.

This is the gweatest Quistmas evaw!

My bank account cries a many treats for this sale. There is so much I want but so little money. That Initial D Season 1, for that price that is not a sale that is stealing, and it is going right in my car for that price.

I found Day 13 to be sort of a get rid of junk day. Why?

From my understanding Initial D is going to be completely redubbed by Funimation. Because of that, (and the fact I keep hearing the TP dub is bad) I find it to be worthless. If you're completing your collection then thats cool.

L/R? I got the same thing for a few bucks more and some change. They had combo packs of 1 & 2 and 3 & 4 a little while ago.

I did find the price on Baki the Grappler to be pretty good. Other than that, everything else is stuff i've seen cheaper in other sales and such.

I found the whole event this year to be a bit of a waste. A few titles did appeal to me- but is wasn't as good as previous years. I hope it's not over and it proves me wrong.

I think they are redubbing it unless they already got it taken care of already, since I don't think or don't know if they had to rewrite the script or not. If they didn't rewrite the script I could see why it got done so fast. I'll look around to see what I can find, but if it is just the TP dub then I will cancel my order.

Anybody who doesn't have L/R or Galaxy Railways absolutely must buy them at those prices. I think L/R has one of the top 2 or 3 dubs I've ever heard.

Well. Best Buy is having a 50% off Media Blaster sale. That's...random.

Some of the full collections are going for under $20 O.o

Link here Click Link that says 50% off

Credit goes to WTK

Theres so much I want. I wonder if I can get these titles instore or if this is online only. I'll report back soon on that.

Note: The Ah! My Goddess TV Season 1 Premium Box Set is $17.50 cheaper.
The Samurai Deeper Kyo: Complete Collection is $23 cheaper.
If you ordered either from RS I'd think again.


Good luck suffering wallets.

Blade of the Immortal 3 and Queens Blade. Yay! I can finish Gaogaigar for cheaper than cheap and that was one cheap show to begin with.
