Picking up Blow Out Criterion Collection [Blu-Ray] this week.

An acquisition that is not relevant to me but happy for those who wanted this.

Price point is $69.99 msrp, with certain discounts on RightStuf, you could get both for about $45 each before they become eternal weekly specials (without gotanime and gotanime coupon). It's a really nice price point as I was expecting, as was many others, it to be much much higher. I am...

There may be several inaccuracies/delays/cancellations in the release list. If you have GotAnime over at RightStuf, they have a chart of all the March DVD/BD/manga/etc releases. It has become a valuable asset to me in planning what to get that month. That said, the only things for certain are...

Received and watched. Also, ordered Shadow Star Narutaru complete series from Amazon Marketplace for $18 and picked up Xam'd blu part 2 and Hidamari Sketch x365 set from the Sentai/S23 sale at TRSI. Oh and Alien Nine for even more crazy.

Summer Wars (blu-ray) for me and I should hopefully receive it by end of next week. Slow month is slow.

Sekirei is an awful series, much like every fan service title out there. I can't think of one that manages to give fan service and deliver on a good, original story. Just goes to show people don't have good taste when it comes to anime. Although I guess its nothing new given Ikki Tousen doing...

A few notes first, These have been, in typical Manga Entertainment fashion, indefinitely delayed; Ghost in the Shell: Solid State Society (Blu-Ray) Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex: 2nd Gig: The Individual 11 (Blu-Ray) Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex: The Laughing Man...

Hopefully Warner has fixed their MOD program, because the last 7-8 films I've ordered are defective out of the 10 I own. I'm not the only one either, they've even shipped out blanks before. Or they become defective after two weeks. That said, as much as I'd love to own Swat Kats, I cannot...

Picked up Criterion's The Night of the Hunter on Blu-Ray from Barnes and Noble's 50% off sale. I'll have to order Modern Times Blu-Ray off the website before the sale ends.

Summer Wars, Evangelion 2.22, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood Part 4 and Eden of the East: King of Eden - all on Blu-ray. In terms of DVD, just Initial D Stage Two + OVA Complete Collection. I'm undecided on/wait for more word and reviews on; FLCL, Ga-Rei Zero (may get LE) and Yu Yu Hakusho...

I've been around for however long I've been around - I don't keep track of it anymore, but just now discovered this part of the forum and this particular thread. TV Series on DVD/Blu-Ray; DVD - Burn Notice Season 1 DVD - Damages Season 1 and 2 DVD - Lost Season 1 through 6 [Completed] DVD - Mad...

Not too shabby a month. 11/2: Dirty Pair: Original TV Series, Part 1 11/9: Xam'd: Collection 2 (Blu-Ray) 11/12: Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn Vol.#2 (Blu-Ray) - which is the official release date. 11/16: Hayate, The Combat Butler: Complete Series, Part 7 Initial D: Season 1, Part 2

It will likely be part of the Classics line, which is one of the "end-of-life" lines (along with SAVE) so chances of a BD are pretty much nil. That and the fact nobody wants to experience a Funimation upscale again, no matter how awful or le~gasp good it is.

Only three worthwhile series for next season. Hourou Musuko. Love the manga and from the PVs, I'll love the anime. Also, noitaminA. Fractale. noitaminA original anime? Haven't seen one of them since Eden of the East and Tokyo Magnitude 8.0. Sold. Gosick. Loved the light novels, I expect good...

The fact that it was slow, very inconsistent and it pretty much fell into the "all VGs to anime adaptions are mediocre at best to horrible" trap. It's pandering to fans of the source material and doesn't care about story in the second half at all. It's a train wreck. Basically what garfield15...

Actually, according to what numbers I've heard and seen from the retailers carrying Persona, its sold ... well, horribly and by that I mean, for every 10-15 copies of Toradora, they sell 1 Persona set. The "no such thing as Tsukihime anime" meme has become "no such thing as Persona anime"...

In full agreement with this. Anyways, I'm going with Nausicaa, with Totoro in second and Mononoke in third.

I wasn't very impressed with the nominations this year. Lots of amazing stuff was snubbed by the Academy like Community. Although I will say Modern Family's victory was delicious. It's an amazing comedy and easily one of the best I've ever seen. I was equally happy to see Top Chef beat out...

Just those 3 for me this month. Fairly slow once again.

Miyazaki has said, at least, the Porco Rosso sequel is not happening and was a mistranslation. Also, it'd help if a ? was added to the end of the topic title [edit] or that, thanks GWOtaku. As far as Ghibli closing, that is just wild and rampant speculation on this guys part. They've got two...

DVD replication was the reason why Bandai Ent had all those recalls, defective discs and all that less than desirable stuff. With the move to a better replicator, Technicolor, who also handles a heckuva lot of Hollywood stuff, delays are inevitable. However, the discs work. I don't complain. I'm...

I wouldn't be the anime fan I am today if it weren't for Perfect Blue, Paprika, Tokyo Godfathers, Millennium Actress and Paranoia Agent. Thank you and RIP Satoshi Kon.

A Hayate dub will never happen. Get over it. If only we had a 'beating a dead horse' smilies.

After a weak Winter, modest Spring, weak Summer ... Fall delivers big. Bold, definite. Italics, maybe. Everything else, not listed. Star Driver: Kagayaki no Takuto The World God Only Knows Kuragehime Bakuman Deadman Wonderland Otome Youkai Zakuro Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt Goulart...

Looks like this'll be it for me in August; Beck Mongolian Chop Squad Complete Collection (Non-S.A.V.E./Viridian) Fist of the North Star TV Collection #1 Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood Part 2 [Blu-Ray] Slim pickings. Might pick up Casshern Sins p1 and 2 on BD, reviews pending.

Looks like Bandai Ent has two announcements. They've got two timers and two black boxes up on their website. One might also think one of them will be another Kannagi-style release given they have store pages and DVD pages setup for one of them.

Definitely picking up Summer Wars and Eva 2.22 on BD in 2011. Very glad to see both.

Totally in for the GE999 movies. I'd love to see the series come over too eventually.

I'm pumped for Turn-A Gundam. Definite day one buy.

Bandai Entertainment will be having a panel on Friday and they've already hinted at something, as per Twitter: "San Diego Comic-Con is next week...maybe we'll have announcements? ＼(^o^)／" The real shame of it all is that Bandai's panel is 6:30-7:30 pst and Funimation's is 6:00 to 7:00 pst...

Seems like just Birdy the Mighty Decode Season 1 for me. Might get the Last Exile BD, but my Geneon DVDs look amazing so the BD will have to be a heckofalot better to double-dip.

Maybe the manga, but not the anime. The anime seems pretty much in the hands Walt Disney, who could realistically have it. Viz having the anime would pretty much mean no BD, which for something as nice as Heroman, would be travesty.

Simple, I can just wait for an eventual SAVE set or reprice and get it much cheaper and save even more. Funimation titles are never a top priority because I know theres always a cheaper release coming eventually.

Eh, all of it is Funimation - if it had included a bit more of a choice like MB, Section23 and Bandai I'd probably buy some stuff since those co's are what I really need.

The real winner of this convention is definitely a tie between Nozomi and Aniplex for myself. I'll be buying all of what Aniplex announced, i.e. Durarara!! and the thought and idea that Kara no Kyoukai is next on their list makes me giddy. As for Nozomi's acquisitions, I probably wouldn't be...

The only simulcast that means something to me is Shiki. All the rest are pretty useless to me. None of the Geneon catalog rescues mean anything to me unless they release Lain and Haibane Renmei (Texhnolyze looks good enough on DVD as it is) on BD later down the road and give them good treatment...

Toradora! (Premium) Volume #1 Gurren Lagann: Childhood's End (Regular Edition) Gurren Lagann: The Lights In The Sky Are Stars (Regular Edition) Hayate the Combat Butler Vol.#6 Hell Girl Two Mirrors Collection #2 Kurokami the Animation Vol.#2 [Blu-Ray] Just those for me this month. Very busy...

How does that hurt Xam'd fanbase? It's getting a DVD/BD release, reasonably priced and its getting an English language feature.

Already got these babies pre-ordered. Sentai Filmworks is truly amazing.
