Now I'm ahead of several people on the series. Damn, they got that volume 5 out early, it’s supposed to come out on the tenth. I know, the online anime store I usually buy DVD's from said they wouldn't get it until the tenth too. Oh well, guess I'll spread some jealousy while I can.

Darn it. I'm only on Vol. 3 so far, but at least I'm getting there. I heard it gets better in the later episodes, so....

Yeah, I also heard Aug. 10 as well.

I bought the first two volumes of Evangelion, the old old versions. I can get them from amazon.com on line sellers for less than 7 bucks a piece. I want to watch Evangelion but as of yet I'm not a big fan of it.

And I recently got the last volume of Haibane Renmei, haven't watched it yet though. Volume 3 was incredible, esspecially that second episode. Wow.

I'm not going to be able to watch anymore anime out of the blue for a while now. I bought Paradise Kiss (all five volumes) last week and I've got the Babylon 5 complete movie collection to get on the 17th of the month. And there's no way I'm going to survive that one for less than 55 bucks. ::sigh:: well, at least it'll packed to the gills with audio commentaries. That's always nice.

I wish Big O came with some audio commentaries. If Bandai released season one of Big O remastered and with audio commentaries, I'd buy it.

About Exile Vol 5: LOL yeah go ahead gloat, I wish I had it.

About Exile Vol 3: is that the one with the auction ep? That’s my favorite so far.

About Renme: So good isn’t it, it ends well too.

About Eva: I think if you keep watching you will like or at least appreciate it for some of its originality.

About Big O vol 4: I tried to order it and it was out of stock at deep discount DVD—good sign for those pressing for more Big O.

And that’s About it...

There is a rather old and dated thread that was created by Shredder that exists. Hasnt been posted on in awhile, maybe the mods can combine the two or something...here it is:

I recently purchased Big O Season II Volume 4, and thats been it on the anime side of things...

[Edit: Thanks, threads merged. --Krang]

I bought the 1st Cutei Honey DVD the ohter day. must buy the rest.

The Infinite Ryvius Limited Edition Box Set. It's a pretty good show but I'd have to say the music its strongest point. I wish they had put an OST in the set.

A few days ago I went to best buy slapped down a C-note and picked up all 4 season 2 DVD's in one fell swoop.

hahah—I got my homestead refund today from the state of NJ because I’m a renter. I immediately ordered Big O II vol. 4, Miami Guns vol. 2, and Last Exile vol. 5 from best buy, they were very cheap because of the sale.

My recent purchases:

Last week: Akira. Fifteen bucks at WalMart.

This week: Gundam SEED box, Wolf's Rain box, Witch Hunter Robin vol. 2, Big O 2 Vol. 4. I love Best Buy. This haul came in at less than $100.

I just recently bought Nadia secert of Blue Water entire first season, and oh Saiyuki manga vol 1.

I enjoyed Nadia the stirys cute and I love the time sra that it trys to take place in. I also have a soft spot for the villians too!! ^_~"

The managa I am saying to read for my plane flight home on the 10th I 'll tell how that goes later. ^_~""

I just moved to a new town and visited their local comic book shop. They rent a lot of anime DVD's & videos.

Also, MUCH to my joy - they were beginning a clearance sale of extra/old anime videos and DVD's for ONLY $1 each!!!!!!!

So I shelled out 30 bucks. Here's what I got:

-Patlabor Movies 1 & 2 (videotape)

-Inu-Yasha DVD's - 13 of them(!) - containing episodes 1-thirty something and some in the forties.

-Kiki's Delivery Service movie (video)

-Blue Submarine videos 1-4 (complete)

-Record of Lodoss War videos 1-6 (complete)

-A.D. Police videos 1 & 2

-Heat Guy J DVD 1

-Yukikaze DVD 1


Most of them were videos, but for a buck a piece, they were nice bargains! I hope to watch them sometime in the next year or two!

(Oh yeah: And I also bought the newest Last Exile DVD - #5 - yay!!!!)

Although it was almost two weeks ago, I purchased a Yamato Macross VF-19A Excalibur toy off eBay.

Last anime to arrive was
The first 2 Sailor Moon movies (R and S)
Cowboy Bebop Best sessions
Anime Test Drive Revolutionary Girl Utena (first 2 episodes for cheap)
All R1.
