Oh, boy, I'm totally going to pay $1 per minute to watch this!

In other news, Bandai Visual is still going strong!


Actually at the current Amazon price it's only 59 cents a minute.

Which is a pre-order promotional price, so I have to buy totally blind if I want that discount.

Amazon is pretty good about being 30%+ on all BDs, and considering the anime titles are usually 40-something% to low 50s... it's all a matter of market timing. Not to say it won't pop back up to 20-30% shortly after release, just that I doubt it will stay there long.

$50 is the MSRP. Amazon discounts their pre-orders by 30%, hence the $35 sticker price.


And Amazon undercuts TRSI on BDs. It's prob okay to wait the 2 months for it to go wide and Amazon to reduce their price more to compensate imo.

Huzzah! It's been ages since I've seen the original, and I've never seen Zeta!

I own the rest. Feel free to mock me, I am unashamed!


Same with me. I haven't seen Seed since it's edit version on CN and Seed Destiny when it showed on Canada's Bionix. Also rewatched 0083 as well

I'm up to around Level 38 with Zeta though it was a real susprise they never did ZZ. if it's successful on youtube they might even consider doing a dub for ZZ as well as other old gundam series.

However Kinda shocked me that Ocean Studios isn't dubbing the series. thought it was a no brainer after 00. Fangirls of Seed and 00 will agree & might get turned off cause of it . I hope not cause it looks interesting though it didn't sound right to me in the trailer.
