Wowwy-wow-wow! That one heck of a grand prize! I doubt I would be so lucky, but it sure would be nice to win anything out of this contest. Smile

Regardless if I win or not, I'm just glad Funi is still producing Case Closed DVDs.

I'm a Detective Conan fan, so it would be nice to get some of the DVDs.

"Case Closed" would be a better dub if they didn't try to make a show that obviously takes place in Japan take place in the United States. It's a little off-putting.

Then again, even in the Japanese version, there tends to be a fascinating number of European-style castles in Japan.

I wonder how they'll handle the movie wherein Mt. Fuji plays a prominent role.

It's possibly (in fact, almost definitely) the nicest give-away we've done.

I don't think it compares to some of the huge prize packs we've done for creative contests (like the Halloween Contests).

Wait till you see the next contest.

Fanboying is hard to not do when you have something like Detective Conan that takes hundreds of dollars to collect but have a chance to get it all. You guys could be giving away your whole ANN library and it wouldn't compare.

I really hope I win since I do not own any of the seasons. I have the two movies but the seasons are usually really expensive! I never win anything but here is to hoping! Good luck to everyone! Very Happy

<sigh>

Even though I bolded "Complete Mailing Address", and added "Entries with incomplete mailing addresses will be disqualified," the grand prize winner had an incomplete address.

I really feel bad for the guy, but he got disqualified, and I gave the next winner the Grand Prize, and selected a sixth person for the fifth and last prize.

People: Submit your complete mailing addresses!

It varies.

In this case I got only the street & number. No city, state, zip.

In other cases, we get an e-mail address with "contact me if I win"

In yet other cases we get everything but the zip.
