My, that's an interesting cover for the Clannad movie! I guess we now sort of know how those two will end up. Laughing

Must've been a slow week if Towards the Terra got #4, excellent show and one of the best from last year but it's not exactly a big seller.

Toward the Terra gets #4. Sweet. I wonder when Bandai is going to release that.

So, I'd assume you'd want less episodes, but for a higher cost? If you want the boxart, then FUNimation tends to release reversible covers on their discs in clear case, other companies sometimes just release the Japanese Boxart with English on it.

Because the distributor (Geneon) is no longer alive in the sense of an R1 company. You can blame it on Geneon for their catalogue being filled by a lot of niche shows, you can blame it on Fansubs, or you can blame it on Denstu for leaving the company. All of those had some part(although, Denstu leaving is more of an effect due to the other two).

Still surprised that the Japanese now seemingly like DBGT, it was one of the cheaper DragonBox sets so I thought anyone from Japan, interested in the show could buy that when it made it's rounds a few years back. Since you know, GT was apparently ended quick for Toei due to not living up to their expectations.

It's good to see ef a tale of memories on the list. I sure hope someone will pick that up as it's definitely one I would buy as it comes out.

I am also interested in the fact that a DVD volume for Dragon Ball GT can take a top spot even if for a short time. I guess there is a good fanbase for it still. Nice to see D-Gray Man make it on there too.

I feel Dragon Ball GT being at the number spot is appropriate since I feel Dragon Ball is the Numero Uno anime of all time.
