Bummer! Scrapped Princess is a great show with fantastic writing-- the sort that improves with every episode. It might be my favorite series by BONES.
I'd love for this to get a re-release one day, but if Bandai gave it a great release and it still didn't do amazingly, I doubt anyone will want to touch it again. What a shame! |

I liked this show back when it was first released overseas. When Bandai brought it over, I hurried to pick it up ASAP. After awhile, I soon forgot about it. And now it's gone.
Crap. |

Back on topic: I am super glad I got the Anime Legends boxset of SP. I haven't watch it yet but I think I might after I finish Casshern Sins. I heard so many good things about the series so now may be a good time to finally watch it. Sucks for those that been wanting to see this series. Prices on eBay/Amazon are going to skyrocket anytime now. |

This was a solid show. The end fell flat for me, but there were specific points in the story that really grabbed me.
Needed a lot more Zefiris imo |

I remember I bought this show for Christmas randomly, because it was on for sale Rightstuf and sounded kind of cool. Then, when I watched it, I actually really liked it. One of the better BONES anime shows I think, and defiantly doesn't get enough love, like their other titles do.

When I became interested in anime again a few months ago, I began a list of series and films that I was interested and put Scrapped Princess on it. I had been curious about it when it was first released, but that was about the time of my interest waning, so I never acted. I thought about trying to collect it a few months ago, but was discouraged by the relatively trickiness of getting it all, relative to the several vastly cheaper series that I've gathered. The package annoyed me too. I don't want any figures and I've never liked collections with obnoxious advertising marques on them (although FUNImations classics line looks classy enough that it might change my mind a little). What I would prefer is a conventional artbox and the six volumes to fill it, but that doesn't seem to exist. I do want to see it, but I would prefer less bother. Oh well, so it goes.

I enjoyed the show, but I must say, it has one of the most entirely pointless deaths of any anime I have seen.
After I finished the series, I tried to think of what purpose it served and the only thing I could come up with was to show that the people we already knew were bad, were really bad! |

Anybody know if an artbox was released for this? The boxset is already hard to find at a sane price. Singles seem common enough though.

Not according to the encyclopedia. Just the singles, the LE singles with the figures, and the boxset.

Let me say, I love this show. Good stuff all around, but it's not the only show that's faded away a tad too early. Why so particular on this one?
