[General Discussion] Recent Anime/Manga purchases

My Haruhi Special Edition came in, I am very happy about this. Mostly because when I first got the e-mail near the release date they said there was a delay and it wouldn't ship until June 29th. Felt as if they were going "lololo nuh you can't have it".

The next day they send an e-mail saying it is already shipped, and sure enough that same day it was already in Houston. It arrived last night (as the UPS person threw it at my door ='D)

I really wasn't sure what the hell the ribbon was at first, so out of curiosity I stuck it on my head. I was expecting a hair band and not something elastic.

Then again if they did that then all the man-haruhis would be unable to complete their cosplay dream.

I also ordered about 7 manga or so, 8 if you count a novel. Out of all the things purchased (Shakugan no Shana Vol 1 + Novel Vol 1, NHK Vol 3, Hayate Vol 3, Angelic Days Vol 5, Negima Vol 14, Eureka Seven Vol 5, and Black Cat Vol 8) I am probably looking forward the most to Shakugan no Shana, Angelic Days, and Eureka Seven.

Sometimes I think about the things I could be doing with this money instead of splurging it on anime and manga, then I realize it would just be a different form of the same structure.

How ya doing, buddy?

This is what I got so far from rightstuff minus DBZ Season 2. Shitty cam it is.

All dvds - The big Red box is the Limited Edition smooth Box of Rozen Maiden vol 1 along with the other dvds which the others have a close up on. The rest is Chobits vol 1-7 , Haibane Renmei vol 1-4 and Mahoromatic the Automatic Maiden Season 1 and 2


Heatguy J dvds + pic of the Boxset. Unfortunately all 7 dvds do not fit -_-


Next is D.Gray-man vol 5 with Death Note vol 10 and 11 and just pre-ordered 12.


Armitage 3+Dual Matrix Boxset. I've yet to see Dual ;_;. Wish I had the time but all dvds are still wrapped up ^^;



And I save the best for last. DBZ Season 2 UNCUT.



Jam it back in, in the dark.

Today's loot consists of One Piece 19-23 (End of Alabasta arc), ZOMBIE POWDER 1, and Air Gear 5. I love my job.



My Japanese manga collection has amassed over 200 volumes as of today, now counting 202. I'm kind of proud in a geeky way.



And for the hell of it my English manga collection that I'm trying to get rid of.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'll take your English manga. No fees included!

Uh, have this image:



When my RightStuf order gets here (never) I'll try to take an image of my meager collection as a whole.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

My latest purchase consist of
Blood, The Last Vampire 2000
Death Note, Volume 3
Bleach, Volume 3
and Naruto, Volume 3




I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I've read the scanlations. I've watched the movies. I've completed the anime series. I've read the first 7 [English] volumes, and now I can completely finish it off...

Death Note.

I bought the last four volumes last night. This may be my last DN fix. Ever.

I was speaking idiomatically.

You could always rewatch the series when it comes out on DVD here. You can go play the DS game (even though you can't understand it). You can make up your own adventures with those action figures you just bought! You just can't let it end. Ever.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Took a month and 8 days, but the first package from RightStuf finally arrived. I'm still missing 3 of the ROD TV volumes. One of them is currently being shipped and the other two are "on order"... meaning I might get up to 4 different packages for a 10-dvd order placed over a month ago. Ah well.

And yes, that is a Mickey Mouse design on the blankets.

FELIPE NO

LOL! took them long enough! try waiting 3 months for 1 dvd i ordered in Feb and got them in June! the other stuff was preorder so that i can understand, but D: and whats even more sad, i ordered something I'm April and got that one before the first order! though, both game within 3 days of each other ^^;;

I guess i should add that i have gotten:
Vol 2/box of Chevalier and Kurau <3 and am loving both shows
Vol 3 of Ergo Proxy a while back, and once i sell my Optimus Prime Poster with Peter Cullen's sig on it
I will probably be picking up Vol 4 of that
Ive also managed to snag the rest of the E7 DVDs all special edition where apply <3 and cant WAIT for more
At Akon I didn't pick up too much in the way of DVDs, but i did manage to grab 8 of the 12 Silent Mobius mangas for <3 35$!!!!!!(too bad im still missing vol 1,2,7,8 which will run me $50s on rightstuff when they are on sale for 33% off)
Ive Also Picked up the 10th Vol of the Evangelion Manga <3 cant wait for the 11th!!!!
And the 3 Scrapped Princess novels(not mangas, novels)
I think thats it...

Transformors Poster:

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Just picked up the first volume of Trinity Blood: Reborn on the Mars.

I already read the first volume of the sister series Rage Against the Moons, but it doesn't belong to me. I'm enjoying the TB novels well enough, although I'm anxious to start getting beyond what the anime/manga have covered thoroughly. The Vampire Hunter D novels are of more interest to me in many ways.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Finally about to catch up to something with my latest purchases: Fullmetal Alchemist, volumes 11-14, which should bring me up-to-date with the series. In addition, I also got .hack//AI buster so I can finally start on catching up to the .hack series that I stopped following several years ago.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Got Black Lagoon Volume 3 Limited Edition today but still haven't had volume 2 yet, hopefully they haven't ran out of them. ;_;

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Much to my ado.. I bring you all a new figure!!! Yay for necro'ing a thread..

I haven't taken a picture but you will make do with a stock photo for the time being.



The Hinata Bokko by Solid Theater. Hiragii Hinata!
Unlike HLJ listed, This figure is not based to the bottom by a screw its just been glued a bit.. not super glue but something of that sort.

One problem I had with it though. I know her dress is removable and all but damn.. did they have to make the seam part look so visible? She's also quite heavy, must be the skirt..

On the other hand. She comes with two cats one bigger, and one smaller. There inside each other though. Both are equally cute.

But I won't see it, its only on the two sides views. You won't be able to see it front view.

Recently purchased Ys Legacy and Planetes Complete Collection. Ys I mainly bought because I am in love with the games, and Falcom's music. The show hasn't aged that well (80's animation) but the music is great and it follows the game's story almost exactly - so that's pretty cool from the point of view of someone who's played Ys Books 1&2 countless times. Planete's I've researched a lot and heard many good things about it. Saw 3 episodes and am enjoying it very much.

I was speaking idiomatically.

^Awesomness. Planetes Complete Collection is on my wishlist.

As for recent purchase, I just bought the Genshiken box set on a whim.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Look what the cat dragged in >.<




I should be getting my GTO boxsets in today. I'll edit later. Time to give this show a chance.

How ya doing, buddy?

Finally, my collection of Dragon Quest: Dai no Daiboken is complete.
I write this with pride.
Death Note is almost complete. Just got vol. 11 today.
I don't know if How to Read will be published here, but at least the ending of the storyline is a couple of weeks away.



Aaaaand Bleach and Naruto as well, which are just warming up.



What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Guess what I got several weeks ago during GFF's downtime:



Might get the third volume if the L figure is decent.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Recent manga run since I'm caught up with stuff. First, a crappy photo of the gets:



I haven't kept up with Death Note too much ever since going throw the anime twice, the movies, and the manga twice (scanlations than NA volumes). I don't know what's really in this Volume 13, but hopefully there's something interesting in there. I also got Another Note: The Los Angeles BB Murder Cases. which looks fo' serious.

I got .hack//AI buster 2 since I'm trying to get back into the series, and I just finished reading the first one. Next up will be the third PS2 video game.

And lastly, I got the just-released Fullmetal Alchemist, Vol. 16. <3

EDIT: And two months later, I happen to make the next anime purchase. I finally gave in and got the Limited Edition Death Note DVD boxes with the figurines. <3 Now I have another excuse to go through the story again!




Yes, Mario Kart Wii on the TV.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I just picked this baby up.
Mexican edition, bitches.

I recently purchased Ogenki Clinic vol 4-6 at a used book and video store. I remember downloading the first 3 but could never find the rest of them
