Which one did you get? Aren't there like two or three different manga versions of Escaflowne?

There are 2, the 8 Vol one is the only one avalable in the US in english, you can pick up the 2 vol one which is MUCH better at Box, i accually found and ULed it there, but the 2 vol one is more of the shoujo verson of the story, the 8 vol is like the Shounen story. The anime is kinda like if you combin the best aspects of both mangas into one story. The 8 vol manga came in 91, and the 2 vol came with the anime,

Aw kinda dissapointing to hear when an anime is better than the manga. I remember loving S-Cry-ed then hearing the manga was utter crap lol. On a side note, watched Advent Children last night, that was some crazy fighting. The music was great too =)

Yesterday I ordered the Get Backers boxset and the Peace Maker Kurogane box. I hope PMK is good, and I already know Get Backers is. Anyone here seen and enjoyed PMK?

I just got Rurouni Kenshin, volumes 19-21. I still have to read 18, but I feel guilty reading a manga when I could be re-reading class texts. :p HAH! Don't get me wrong-- it's not that I can actually stand waiting. I'm going crazy.

Naruto Volume 1.

I wasn't planning on starting the manga for this one since I'm up to date with the anime. The manga came with a calendar and a box for the actual book. I might continue getting the rest of the volumes as they're released, but it's not high on my priority list.

Psalms of Planet Eureka Seven Vol. 1 LE arrived two or three days ago. :) It came with a tshirt that I would actually wear in public, the DVD, OST1 (double disc) and vol.1 of the manga. This is a really great set. I gave the OST a quick listen and it was pretty good. Awesome stuff. I can't wait to watch the show.

I finally picked up the movie Perfect Blue today, after looking at it but never getting it for years. I finally seen for less than $30 (it was $20), so I had to get it this time. I also picked up Tokyo Babylon, since it seemed pretty cool and was only $10.

I've got volume five for Dream Gold~Knights in the Dark City~, volume 32 for Ah! My Goddess, and the collector's edition for the fourth episode of Tales of Phantasia waiting to be picked up at my cousin's place. While it's a hassle to go to their place to pick things up, it saves shipping costs and the likes for the both of us with combined orders through Amazon.

My boyfriend brought over his anime DVD hoard and combined it with mine so now it's uhh...kinda big. We're trying to complete some boxed sets.

Recent anime splurge included Elfen Lied 3, Chrno Crusade 5, FMA 6-8, and FMP Fumoffu 4.

I haven't done much actual "purchasing" in the past month, but I did manage to pick up Fruits Basket vol. 13, Yubisaki Milk Tea vol. 1, and Yellow vol. 1 & 2. The latter is fantastic... if you're into yaoi, that is. Evidently, the people in my area must really enjoy it because it's hard as hell to find yaoi titles in stock lately. ...damn it all.

Are you sure they don't just stock it very, very little?

And props (if I could) for Yubisaki Milk Tea goodness, let me know how you like it =D

Naturally they're not going to carry mass volumes of yaoi titles. It's just a little disappointing how neglected the stock seems to be. I reckon a teeny, tiny sarcasm tag would have helped in that last post, as well. ^_^

Yubisaki Milk Tea was very, very good! I actually got the idea from your journal entry. Since I was going out to spend mass amounts of money on myself that day and the selections I was looking for weren't to be found, I decided to give it a shot. Shrink-wrap and a mature rating always doubly spark my interest.

Hahaha awesome =D
I thought it would be kinda conceited of me to expect it was cause of my journal or the thread I made, so I didn't ask and assumed it was either the gender confusion or some mention of mine or all combined =P

It was shrinkwrapped? Funny, mine wasn't. It's funny because I expected it to be. I remember when Negima appeared shrinkwrapped and I thought to myself "Why would a mainstream series with 12-14 year olds need to be shrinkwrapped like that O___________o" (and no, I don't read Negima), so I was sure something as scandalous as Yubisaki would be, but no. I guess it was just the store I went to, I've no idea if it's up to the store whether they keep the shrinkwrap or not.

I'm glad you liked the first volume, it gets SO much better in the later chapters (not that I've gotten to read that far, naturally ._.) <3

Thanks to Q, I've ordered both Yubisaki Milk Tea volume 1 and Yotsuba&! volume 1. I bought YSMT because I want to find out what happens later on, and Yotsuba&! was so enjoyable that it certainly deserved my £££. I rarely make manga purchases because each volume is the same price as a book, but these two series certainly deserves to be bought. Also, it means I can share Yotsuba&! goodness with other people who are perhaps not into manga and convert them. \o/

Tonight I went into town and picked up I's Volume 7: Spank. Continually waiting 2-3 months between each release of I's and DearS can be difficult.

Well i finaly got a job, and that means, I WILL HAVE MONEY at some point in time 15/hour* ~60 hours a week = ALOT OF MONEY- taxes still = pretty good.(and no, i am earning this money the HARD WAY, so not mooching!)
Well, all i have picked up so fair is FMA vol 7 of the manga. but as soon as i get my 2nd paycheck(first one is going for Family Guy, American Dad, Futurama and Simpsons guna get them at 19.99 each!) i plan on picking up FMA novel V2-3, replacing afew of my bootlegs with legits, gettting the boxset of Gantz, and picking up my last dvd for WHR to complete the collection. Then, im probly guna start on the GitS stuff...oh, this is guna be a a full summer, very very full!

If you don't mind me asking, where are you getting them from? I've been looking to buy Futurama and Family Guy on DVD, and $20 each is a good deal.

I picked up Girl Got Game because my friend kept bothering me about it. It's supposed to be about a girl who cross-dresses as a guy to play on the basketball team, and, of course, that leads to several strange but hilarious problems.

My recent order to Amazon for my manga fix was

Tsubasa Chronicles Vol 9, Getbackers Vol 11, and Cardcaptor Sakura: Master of the Clow Vol 6.

I'm sure I'm gonna pick up some cool stuff this weekend at my convention.

I finally got Genshiken vol 3 the other day. I somewhat feel like getting the whole Stand Alone 1 on the dvd but there is no point =/. or Not yet ^^:. As for Manga, D- Grayman is part of my manga library next to DN.

a friend is getting them at bestbuy for me(he works there and gets like a 30% discount.) and i only need the 2nd 2 boxes of family guy, and teh last 2 seasons of the simpsons, but i do need all of futurama. but you can get most of them for around 30 at deepdiscountdvd.com

My wallet is empty. I wanted to get the GITS SAC1 Disk 7 (Tin) to complete the series, but they didn't have it, so I ended up grabbing Ah! My Goddess V5, Eureka Seven Disk1 (With box, t-shirt, first manga, and OST), Hare & Guu (With box), and a Bleach Hitsugaya Wall Scroll

What sucks is now I have to finish EVA Platinum, Ah! My Goddess, GITS, and these two new box sets....My wallet's burning like crazy.

I just bought the third and fourth volumes of the Azumanga Daioh manga last night(after having purchased the first and second a week ago).
I am very disappointed that ADV decided to change "bonklers" to "numbnuts." Surely there could have been a better alternative. :(

Eureka Seven Volume 1 special edition - I couldn't possibly pass this up, and I was low on funds to begin with. the box is pretty awesome, it's sorta opens like a container rather than be one of the usual boxes.

Rozen Maiden Vol 1 - I had to make a few trips to different book and anime stores but I eventually found it. alternatively, I could of just ordered it online, but I hate making an order and just getting one thing.

Gundam SEED Astray R Vol 1 - It was free, the store I bought it at had a buy 1 get 1 free sale going on, so I got this. I was looking to buy the regular Astray actually, but they didn't have any in stock. But, this fills in some leftout story/plot from Astray, so it's all good.

Blood Alone Vol 1 - Impulse purchase. I was really drawn to the artwork so I had to have it. I skimmed through the first few pages and love the art already. pretty excited to start reading it.
