All I have to say, is another satisfied customer! ^_^
I am so glad I discovered and fell in love with ROD. It got me interested in Anime again. Oh, and you fanboys and girls better keep your eyes peeled! They've released figurines of the Paper Sisters from the ROD TV series!
Urge... to geek out... RISING!!!

Since it's been awhile, this isn't really a double post, and it's something new.
I made a quiz to see just what sort of Paper Mage you are.
It's at Quizilla
Just click here for it! ^_^

Works for me. Fits my style too.
However depending on weither I wear glasses or not I get several different results. Such as the equally accurate

It's douptful that they will reair the OVA again in the near future. It was a special, not the start of a series (though it sort of is). Whether they reshow it or not will depend of the demand and the schedule. They already have some specials coming up in the next year, such as movies.

Then, it looks like G4TechTV screwed ROD's chances for a wider marked here by stealing the ROD TV series.
Crap.
OMG... this is seriosuly the best volume of the TV series on dvd1!
Ep 13 youd have alreay seen on tect tv, but did it have the after credits bit?
Episode 14 was pretty good, its a Wendy/Junior/Joker only episode that explains what happened before, during and after the ROD OVA, it also has a new end creits which isnt as good as the other one IMO
Ep 15 has a rejigged OP with some new Joker/Wendy moments plus it has.....
| spoiler (highlight to read): |
| The paper sisters returning to Japan as fugitives, and a sweet reunion between Nenene and Yumiko!! Plus Nancy is back! |
Ep 16 has another rejig of the OP, featuring the 2 chars mentioned in the spoilers above, plus
| spoiler (highlight to read): |
| More revolations about Joker adn Nancy/Yumiko and a possible connection between Anita and Yomiko is touched upon!! |
Seriously, go out and get it!!

Right stuf says Vol. 4 doesn't come out until the 28th of this month. Where did your copy come from?
Remember how people said the book/bow would hold the whole series? It only holds four DVDs, and there appears to be seven in the set. I'm hoping for a second book or something to finish off the series.
DVDPacifc, most online stores ship once they get stock in
The book does hold all 7 dvds, in fact it holds 8

Heres a pic of it to show what i mean:

Its very clever.
edit, and no you dont get the pritt stick with it

i was just using it to hold the end down on the floor

According to Adult swim's online schedule, Read or Die will be playing Chrismas day. It will be shown 11 PM Eastern time, followed by The Animatrix. Looks like Adult swim heard our Chrismas wish. Now pass me the relish, I need to choke down my own words.

The right stuf has a coupon special where if you buy two non-preorder DVDs, you get a third free. The fourth R.o.d. the TV volume comes out the 28th, so I'm going to order it then so I can get the discount. Now to decide on the other ones I want...

As reported the ROD OVA will be shown this Saturday at 11 pm. Two commericials last night during FMA and GitS: SAC confirmed this. The return of agent Paper is at hand!
*Looks as Scale balenceing Last Exile and the ROD OVA* Hmmm. The scale is leaning towards watching the Last Exile marathon and purcheseing your own copy of the ROD OVA right now.
