XP My saving up for A-Cen is really going to put a damper on my purchases for the next few months and wouldn't you know it - Funi puts out every thing great this spring!
I'll be curious if the new Rin set will have the same skin-feeling cover to it as the original, or if that was just reserved for the original. I'm still looking at picking this up, but I do like the effect they gave the cover for the original release and that may override my want for the prettier art.

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
Eva 2.22!!!!!! I can't wait... I can't wait... I can't wait... Seriously, I am super excited! I want to place it with all my other Eva stuff on the pretty shelf!!! I can't wait to watch it!!!!! Anyways... I can't believe they're going to be releasing Soul Eater Parts 1+2 together now that I finally broke down and purchased them individually. I hate it when they do that. GRRRRR. Either way, I'll only have paid $40 for my Soul Eater. Not about to purchase it in BD either. |

A few items on the list caught my attention, but not the titles I'm drooling over. Shakugan no Shana 2 and Strike Witches 2 now seem to be summer releases.
*sigh* *waits* |

Also, and I always seem to have to mention this, video happens to only be half of a title's presentation. Blu-ray also offers lossless audio which is always superior to a DVD's lossy track. |

Yea, I've always been under the impression that cel animated shows benefited the most from BD. I don't know how it's done, but I always thought they broke out the originals and cleaned them up by hand. |

Since a few of us here will probably be on the streets after the holiday season, I thought I'd post this here. |

Thank you to The King of Harts for posting this, it look like a lot of work.
Even though there is so many things, only two things got my interest; the Summer Wars dvd and the Eden of the East Movies I dvd. |

WTK over at AoD pointed out a note that's left on all the shows that have both LE's and RE's:
This applies to: Chrome Shelled Regios Ga-Rei Zero DVD Ga-Rei Zero BD Black Butler Season One Part One I don't think Funimation was joking around when they said these were limited runs. I think I'll be doing a lot more preordering than normal. Hopefully they aren't that limited, though. |

Y'know, I would really apprecite it if Funi would declare Blu Ray releases as an option at release rather than waiting for all the releases to come out and say "Oh wait, here is the Blu-Ray discs for everything you just bought!" I would love to pick up some of these BR releases, but since I already own the DVD version, I'm not really interested in shelling out even more money for a new version.
Unless Funi would agree to sell Blu Ray discs at a discount if you turned in the older DVDs, a lot of these BR releases won't be on my radar any time soon. |

Well going through the stuff I'm interested in I came up with this.
Buy on release: Gai-Rei Zero BD Chrome Shelled Regios Limited 1 Chrome Shelled Regios Part 2 Rosaria Vampire Limited 1 Rosario Vampire Capu 2 No Limited Version so these can wait: Eden of the East Movie 1(MAYBE) Summer Wars Eva 2.22 (MAYBE) I may change my mind later on but for now this is what I plan on getting. |

NISA said that Toradora! and Persona -trinity soul- premiums were limited runs as well. Five months later they are still available... As much as we would like to think there is actually a demand for these titles, there isn't. I'd recommend pre-ordering FUNi's LE's just to be safe, but it's really nothing to break the bank over (don't spend your last pennies just in fear you will never get it haha) I mean come on, how many people out there are actually going to buy that Chrome Shelled Regios LE??  These titles aren't exactly A+ shows...
EDIT: Hey! At least these solicitations answer an important question. There ARE going to be Blu-ray LE's!! Woohoo! |

Funimation's 2010 releases that got my attention were far and inb between, but it seems like Funi has decided to hit the ground running this year.
My list of titles to buy in 2011 has already expanded by at least 4 titles. I have to get Summer Wars, FLCL, the new Evangelion movie, and the first Eden of the East movie. And there's also a few titles that I might consider picking up if I have the extra cash at the time. I'm considering finally getting the Sgt. Frog season 1 and 2, Speed Grapher box set (since right now I only have the first volume), Excel Saga box set, and I'm kind of interested in the Yu Yu Hakusho blu-ray release. I just want to see how that will turn out. |

It also applies to Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom and The Sacred Blacksmith. It will likely be applied to Hero Tales, Rideback, and Rosario+Vampire (slated to include artbook on LE) once March's solicitation is fully finalized. Since I'm making a post here...a couple more things to note:
