Indeed they do, and they are still marked down in price.

On that note, here is a photo of yours truly embracing my latest DVD goodness acquisition; Super Dimension Fortress Macross boxset one, containing DVD volumes one through three. It was early Saturday morning, hence the bathrobe and foppish hair.



COHugh, you bad influence.

About a month ago now I got volume 4 of Ranma, Barnes and Noble didn't have three and I'v already read 2.

Then the other day while on an unsucessful quest for a Japanese dictionary I picked up vol. 3 of Ranma and. . . and the second volume of. . . 'Gunslinger Girl'! I was so happy to see it, I was starting to think ADV was never going to release the rest of the manga. And well, the second volume's even better than the first, next chance I get I'm going to go pick up the 1st.

Over the forums downtime, I got the Devilman Lady complete collection. It just such a steal, only 18 bucks! I really liked this series, it's from the same guy who directed Big O! ^^

Also, I went to Mitsuwa and bought tons of candy. Pokemon gummis, candy balls, One Piece gummy (with figure and card), and some DBZ chocolate thing. I also ordered a few books, Cutie Honey 70's (sold my damaged one on Ebay), Cutie Honey 90's, Cutie Honey aGOGO!, and Re:Cutie Honey Perfect book.

woah boy i got a fair amount of stuff while the forums where down.

But recently i got:
Serial Experiments Lain Complete Collection (the old style box, not the sig series one)
All of Princess Nine (6 vols)
Hand Maid May Collection
I dream of Mimi

All from various TRSI weekly specials, daliy deals and bargin bin items.

Now they are having a TRSI sale, so i think im going to preorder some more of Shingu, and preorder/buy the new version of Cool Devices

I just came back from buying volume 1 of the Gunslinger Girl manga! ::does happy dance::

Yesterday I went and got the second volume of Sister Princess. Haven't seen all the episodes yet, but I plan to every soon.

Is Sister Princess one of those harem animes? Or am I thinking of something else?

Depends on how you see it. It's a harem series because of the amount of young girls who all seem to like their younger brother. At the same time, it doesn't follow all of the rules that makes a harem series.

I just bought a VHS tape of the original Vampire Hunter D at Blockbuster for about 5.58. Great movie, which brings my anime collection to a whopping total of 6. The animation isnt exactly top notch, but was surprisingly good considering the age of the flick. Next Items I'm Hunting:The Big O:Collector's Edition Complete Set, The Big O II:Agressive Negotiations, Tekkaman Blade DVD-R Fansub set from [LA]

Today, March 12, I bought the following:

- Peacemaker Kurogane Vol. 1 w/ box

- Chrono Crusade Vol. 1 w/ box

- The Slayers Complete Collection Box, 26 episodes on 4 discs.

(I'll watch this to get with the program, but I will eventually give the set to my brother, because he is such a huge Slayers fan.)


Not to brag, but here is some information on the rest of my anime stash to spark conversation:

During a typical outing at the local Best Buy this evening, I managed to acquire Last EXILE DVD volume six and the Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind DVD. A decent purchase this time around, I suppose.

Fan books:



The third edition was available in a box that also contained a nifty folder to hold all of them...so I bought it that way:
This is the front

The art book and the character book. The art book is beautiful. The cover is embossed on the automail part. The character book has some spoilers.


Book in Figure RED

I was so excited about it, I had to call BabyGhia and tell her STOP ME BEFORE I SPEND SOME MORE!!! They had other items there too. But since I truly couldn't tell what they were and they were sealed, I restained myself. They had the mangas also. I did just about buy those.
