Aww, I'm sad to hear about Gokujo Seitokai as I was hoping for a thinpak/boxset release.
At least I see all DVDs have been released, so I can easily pick them up though =) |

No Kindaichi? That's sad, it was one of the few series I'm still collecting.
On the plus side, I suppose I can sell my Lagoon Engine manga without feeling like I might be missing something now. |

They were saying stuff like Neo Tokyo was discontinued before, and then ADV put them out in special 2-packs. So I'm wondering if that's really official.

Are you sure about that? All of those titles except Robotech were part of the ADV shutdown back in January/February. My impression was that all of the titles that were announced then were made through Sojitz. (and wasn't shattered angles licensed after that ordeal - or at least it was announced afterwards - and it was through Sojitz, right?) Basically the only release ADV has left then is Kurau (which was also on the list back in February, so it might not be long until that goes too) |

I really wanted 5 Centimeters Per Second, time to look around and see what I can find before it disappears completely I guess. I was also really enjoying The Queen's Knight, and is it definite that they have cancelled BECK: Mongolian Chop Squad (want to read that one so much)?

No more Kindaichi? Damn. I know it wasn't always a huge seller, but considering Tokyopop did squat to promote it, that's to be expected. And it always got excellent reviews, even in some mainstream non-manga publications. Quite a shame. Now I have no reason to continue supporting them, since all their other series I was following have concluded.

Hmm, I guess now is a good time to grab 5 Centimeters Per Second. Let's wish ADV well from here...
None of the discountinued titles from Toykopop concern me. Thank god for that.

Whew.
Nothing I'm collecting got discontinued. The only title I actually care about on that list was 5 Cms and, luckily, I already own it. |

Already got 5cm, BSC and IV so I'm in an awesome place but I feel very badly for those who still haven't gotten them or wanted a thin pack. Time to just break down and get singles if you want them. (Then buy a cheap multi-disc case and print your own cover art so you can still save space.)
And I'm with MARl0, Best Student Council is a surprisingly fun little series. It actually manages to become quite cool as it goes along. Zany and over-the-top but good. I wonder if these might pop up with Funimation down the road or if they're just gone now. |

Indeed... I really enjoy Makoto Shinkai's work, and the heart he puts into each of his pieces... I'm still a huge "Voices of a Distant Star" junkie. I wanted more Lagoon Engine to tide me over until Sugisaki finishes DNAngel (If it ever comes off hiatus), and I was starting to enjoy Nosatsu Junkie. Oh well -_-;; |

i didn't even know ADV had Robotech. i'm surprised they're shelving 5 Centimeters Per Second, given how much promotion they gave it.
