1.) Keep in mind that BOTH offers will net you FREE economy shipping to U.S. and Canadian destinations!
2.) Get your orders in – all titles are “while supplies last” – and check back often because we have been known to add products throughout the sale period!
3.) In addition to our standard restrictions*, this special event has a couple other rules to note:
- To use these coupons, you cannot have any other items in your cart aside from items that qualify for the sale, PLUS you must have the exact number of items for the coupon you plan to use. (In other words: If you’re looking to purchase some other items in addition to your “Super Savings” coupon selections, you’ll need to place a separate order.)
- You cannot have duplicate items or multiple quantities of any single item in your cart. (This way no one customer can load up on all of the available inventory of a specific item. Fair for all and more savings to go around!)
* Not sure which products are included in the sale? To get started, just click on the “Super Savings” graphic above: It will take you to a list of the DVDs that are included in this promotion! (Please note: Bargain Bin, Weekly Special and Closeout items are not eligible for this sale because they’re already awesome deals, and this will be noted on the individual product pages for these items!)

It's funny, because I was mentioning in the anime thread that I didn't have Excel Saga volume 6 and then we have this sale with it available. I was able to get volumes I needed for Godannar and Madlax too. The one good thing is that I know I won't go crazy again like last year because I already bought most of the shows I wanted from last years sale.

This must mean something --> "Don't Waste your money!"
The majority of the Raxephon, Full Metal Panic, Evangelion, some Noir, and (Not too surprised) Vol.1+Artbox of some of the aforemention series are all OOS already <.<V

In my experiences, if you get in on these deals the first day, they usually ship it to you pretty fast, so I'd say they would charge it within a day or two.

Ok, thanks dudes. But sonuvabitch, when I went to place my order I got to step 4, and for some odd reason when i hit submit it brought me to my cart and said it was empty and I was like "WTF?!?!"
I had grabbed the last copy of one of the Full Metal Panic Dvd's so of course it says OOS >.>
I basically had to go back in my browser and add them all again, but others were OOS also so I just said screw it and picked up 10 items -_-
If some of the others come back in stock I'll reconsider a 25 for $100.
Went through the entire list and I'm relieved that I couldn't find anything that I wanted. Got everything I was interested in the first time around.

01-24-2008, 05:44 PM
Just a heads up:
I just tried to swap an item and the rep said they've been instructed not to swap items. I mentioned that it's been done in the past, but she said she didn't know about that but that for this time around they cannot swap.
Saw something after the fact that I've wanted. Damn. Hopefully stuff comes back in stock (like FMP...was it ever in stock??) so that I can place one more order.

put in my order as soon as i saw the first post. Nothing super exciting for me this time since most of the series I needed to fill that weren't included in the last one totally (Madlax and Maburaho) I had fill in since then. So looks like one 25 for 100 order for me.
I had Macross Vol. 7 in my cart and then some fucker stole it :bomb:
Now I have to wait until it restocks, and hope the other items in my cart will still be available...

This one is going to be a Pass from me. There were around a good 30 titles I wanted but 20 are already sold out and the reamining 10...well, $5 per DVD is pretty much what I would like to pay for them but I could be paying those prices outside of this deal at this point. Sure, it'll be a few extra bucks for shipping here and there but this one isn't a real barn-burner like the Geneon one.
Thanks anyway, OP! Some good titles left there, at least!

I've found some flip material for any Transworld store. Not enough for a full 25 order (you can only order 1 copy per order), but if you only want a few items, it should help fill up the order (all prices are after 45% bonus):
Worth $10.15 each
Angelic Layer, Vol. 1: Divine Inspiration [With Collector's Box]
Aura Battler Dunbine, Vol. 1: Tales of Byston Well [With Memorial Box]
Get Backers DVD 1 (Hyb): G & B On the Case + Artbox

Gravion Zwei DVD 1 (Hyb): Eye of the Storm + Artbox (Limited)
Madlax DVD 1 (Hyb): Connections + Artbox

Above dvds total $137.75, meaning that the other 12 dvds you pick for yourself are pretty much just a nice bonus.

Pass because this is little that interests me from that selection. I already have enough stuff I need to watch through as is, i.e. the majority of what I bought from the similar Geneon sale in June. I participated in that because there were some series I genuinely wanted to see like Black Heaven but I'm just not feeling it for Abenobashi or a couple others enough to pull together a list of ten discs.

Got all the Kaleidostar volumes they had in stock (which ironically was 10), never saw the ending and figured why not. The price is so cheap that even if you dump it in the worst case scenario of ebay you're bound to get at least half your money back heh.
Sucks that i need to find the first seasons volume 4 and 6 though. I'm sure i'll forget and never pick them up lol. Hell i still need to find Noir volumes 4 and 6 and FMP 2 and 6 from a few years ago.
BTW if anyone is having trouble filling out an order and would be willing to pick up a few DVDs i'll gladly pay my share of the total + shipping to me + a little extra for your effort. Just shoot me a PM, i have a few i want to pick up but there weren't enough to fill out another 15 to get the 25 for $100

a lot of businesses are in states that have property taxes that are calculated at the end of December/January so they dump lots of inventory at the end of the year to lower what they have to give the government. ) Hence the number of huge sales over January by almost every big retail chain.
Geneon sales will probably never happen again, keep in mind they no longer produce anime DVDs for the US.

Thanks OP. I'm not personally an anime fan, but they have some fine live action films included in this deal that I can't find in any stores around here.
If anyone else was interested in some of the live action films or need filler that will be a worthwhile addition to your collection, I'd recommend Public Enemy and/or Guns & Talks.

Y'know, when I left for work today, all they had up was the link in the Advanced search saying ADV Super Sale. I spent all day being happy, thinking it was a studio sale and I'd get to pick up Kurau and Pumpkins Scissors and all the other ADV new stuff I want. Then I get home and find a clearance sale on all the same stuff I passed on last time around, that I wouldn't have anywhere to put anyway becuase the last remaining smidge of room in my DVD cabinet is waiting for Kurau and Pumpkin Scissors and the other stuff I thought I'd be getting. :cry:
I might make an order once my inital dissapointment wears off, but for now, not interested.
Oh, and Rocko- if one of those RoD volumes you need is vol. 7, let me know- I've got an extra.

Heh, I knew they was about to have a sale. I had mentioned this in the Starland anime sale thread about weeks ago. There was a lot of stuff I was iffy about, several that would be cheaper if I wait for the box sets to go on sale, so I bought the stuff I knew I really wanted and would watch right away.
Divergence Eve: Misaki Chronicles DVD 2 (Hyb): Revelations
Divergence Eve: Misaki Chronicles DVD 3 (Hyb): Continuum
Nanaka 6/17 DVD 1 (Hyb): Not So Magical Mishap
Nanaka 6/17 DVD 2 (Hyb): Reality! Rivalry! Ridicule!
UFO Ultramaiden Valkyrie 2 DVD 1 (Hyb): Washing Up & Wigging Out

To those who flip, do be careful. I've ordered DVDs from them before and the numbers shown does not always mean it's in stock. I believe that they get the orders first and then make the purchase or something like that. The last batch of DVDs I ordered was held up for 5 or 6 weeks because they could not get something or other for a while. If the same thing happens again, then your transworld sale could be over with. So buy stuff you don't mind keeping, eh?

I sign in, then I start going through the steps to pay. I get to the Shipping and Tax page and when I hit Submit Information, the thing just locks up. I try to start another session and I can't even log in. A minute or two later and Rightstuf clears out my cart and now Full Metal Panic is sold out.

I still have just about everything I bought in the Geonon sale unwatched (2 x 25 for 100), and yet I still bought a 25/100.
BAST of Syndrome 2-6
Gilgamesh 1-7 + Artbox
Madlax 1-7 + Artbox
Shadow Skill 1-6
If Getbackers and FUMOFFU come back in stock, my bank account will be in trouble.

Haha, I feel ya bro. I got 4 x 25 for 100 from the Geonon sale and I've only watched Trigun so far. I had to buy a new shelf to put all them on it. If my internet wasn't done yesterday i probably would have gotten more than the 2 x 25 for 100 from this sale.

Nuku Nuku (both series)
Noir 5 missing as of now
Those Who Hunt Elves (last three volumes) missing as of now
I'll wait to see if some come back in stock, but I honestly couldn't find anything else I was interested in for another 25 order.

I have no idea, the box art drew me to it. :oops:
The preview of it on Rightstuf's page seems interesting though. If wasn't trying to quickly place an order before some key things I wanted sold out, I would have probably got Nanaka 6/17 instead. It seems like it might be funny.

Yep, those were the ones. I really have no interest in Spriggan or MAPS at all. I have only mild interest in the Burn Ups and Ninja Resurrection. I have Burn Up Excess and Scramble already, but I haven't watched them yet. The Nanakas look like they might be pretty funny. Yesterday tey had all three but I was really waiting to see if Noir 5 would come back. Once it did I decided to get the remaining volume of UFO Ultramaiden. I overlooked that last time, and it seems like it might bun a fun show to watch.

It's not bad. it's your standard romance anime with the male protanganist that's down on his luck with cram school. I think it's worth picking up. And this version includes the english dub version.

Yeah, you definitely sound to have tastes close to mine. Don't expect a pure comedy like an Excel Saga from Nanaka 6/17 as it's more of a drama about maturity. Sure, it's funny at the start when she regresses to a 6 year old mindset, but they get over that silliness fast. It gets full of dramatic tention with a love triangle where a female friend of Nanaka is jealous that a guy she likes prefers childish Nanaka rather than herself who is the total opposite. Then the last part is their trying to get Nanaka to want to be an adult again for some pretty important reason (passing college exams or something), but she is so resistant to this. By the end of the series it should make you reflect on maturity. Sadly I'm pretty sure most people would not really care for it but I'm giving it a 50% chance you'd like it.
UFO Ultramaiden is far more funnier, but honestly I am into that one only for the catgirl transformations and not the space princess Tenchi Muyo-esque mumbo jumbo that is the main story. I could never really stay focused on that one unless a catgirl was on the screen. (see my avatar) LOL Hopefully dubbed I can pay better attention to it.
I've personally wanted Burn Ups as well and they've always been a mild interest. All I know is that they are cute girls with guns, which I already have way too much of already. LOL So I've never really picked any up.
Anyway, has anyone received their confirms that their orders was packed and shipped yet? I don't expect to see my DVDs for at least 3 to 5 weeks. Not that it matters much as I have probably 100 anime DVDs to watch yet. T_T

Heh! :)
Yeah, ever since I cut back on my game purchases, I have been more apt to spend for limited editions for anime when they come out. I also got all the LE versions of the Black Lagoon volumes. The Haruhi volumes just came with so much cool stuff that I couldn't resist.
I'm more impressed by the Ranma 1/2. I have no idea how to start collecting those. :applause:
Man, Ranma was something I was really wary of spending a lot of money for, but it was worth every penny. I am a huge Rumiko fan. I was lucky to find the original season sets at about $75 each on Overstock in 2005. I even made a topic about it on CAG somewhere. They also had the OVA set. I got the movies from Rightstuf IIRC. The first time I went through all the Ranma episodes, movies and OVA was one of the most enjoyable anime experiences I ever had. I love anything that can make me laugh outloud. The have thinpak sets out now that are substantially cheaper, but they omit extras from the DVDs IIRC.
BTW, I own all the Ranma manga as well. Probably my favorite anime/manga ever. :) I might take a pic of that tonight.
Now I need to work on Maison Ikkoku (I only have season 1 right now) and Urusei Yatsura!

I display them with the box end hidde for two reasons...
1. It's easier to grab a particular volume I am looking for when it is alrady facing me.
2. My largest display leans back, and volumes tend to fall out if I have it the other way.

I display them with the box end hidde for two reasons...
1. It's easier to grab a particular volume I am looking for when it is alrady facing me.
Yep, I do the same for this exact reason. And when you look at your shelf, it helps with the "Holy crap!" factor, too!

I'd have an easier time upgrading my shelves if Ikea hadn't discontinued their Journalist line- 1 more small side brace and I could move the big cabinet somewhere else. :cry: The only pictures of my cabinet I have are in my entry for Ryoko's blog (Ryoko being a world-traveling doll.) You can see 'em here (http://ryoko.pinky-street.com/?section=news&cmd=details&newsid=95), last 2 pics. Each pull-out shelf holds around 50-60 DVDs (varies by artbox width.) Do keep in mind, that's only about half my anime, the rest is in cardboard storage boxes at the foot of my bed, waiting for better lodgings.

Seeing all of your collections has made me feel wholly inadequate. I have very few anime DVDs. Buying the 10 from this ADV sale will probably double my current collection. However, last time I checked, DVD sets were on the order of at least 100 bucks or more. I looked around and it seems they now have these 'ThinkPaks', which are considerably more affordable.
I still find the whole thing questionable. Why is a ThinkPak set only like 40 bucks when a single DVD is 30?
Also, while surfing around for more anime to pick up at Buy.com, many of the sets I was looking at were offered not by Buy.com but by Movieweb.com. They seem to consistently offer the best prices. Has anyone ever done business with them?

The thinpaks come out well after the single DVDs finish releasing, so the companies have (hopefully) made back most of the money they spent on the property. The thinpak is just a way to squeeze a lil' more out of a title by appealing to those who 'didn't want to pay that much for it', or won't/don't buy singles as they release, or want the smaller packaging.
Plus, in the case of ADV, most of the thinpaks have the DVD extras removed, allowing them to put more episodes per disc, and make less for the set. (It also helps appease the singles buyers who might be upset that they paid so much for something, only to have it drop $100 in price less than a year later.)

Ah, that makes a great amount of sense. I rarely care for any kind of extras outside of clean openings and closings (I tend to collect these).
I am not particularly thrilled by the disc layout offered by these ThinkPaks--removing layered DVDs is always troublesome, but the price is definitely right. I will have to pick up a couple of these sets.

man i have close to 650 dvds...about 70% of that is anime...and i STILL FEEL lowly to all these collections...but im curious about a couple things..
do y'all with the big collections actually watch all that anime? and enjoy all of it?
How much do you SPEND on anime per MONTH?
my big problem now is i only buy anime that i see as worth watching (i read lotsa reviews which make me kinda dependent on others opinions rather than my own...which i KNOW is bad...ya don't have to tell me). But im glad that every single series i own i enjoy and would gladly watch again and AGAIN given that time permits

Now I need to work on Maison Ikkoku (I only have season 1 right now) and Urusei Yatsura!
Oh for the love of god, good luck. We'll probably be fighting over the remaining volumes left online by the time we're both close to completing UY, probably sometime around 2029.
It's hard, it really is. I just can't justify spending around $14 to $16 for a used volume each time I get a paycheck. To be back in the old days, where DDD would have a good number of them and their 20% sales would mean a nice $11 per volume.

Hmm, this thread makes me want to count my anime collection. A quick count of stuff that is in my permanent keeping collection I have is about 516 out on display in my apartment. That doesn't include anything in my boxes in my closet (which is a sizable amount) or in my to be watched then to be gotten rid of/already watched, for sale pile which is over 250. So 516+ keepers. Too much work to dig out stuff out of my closet for a more exact count.

Yeah, most of the DVDs had Best Buy or other tags on them. The Arc the Lad DVDs were in rough shape - the plastic was worn and even ripped. Everything else was fine though, boxes in perfect condition. No holes either - I think ADV only does that within their warehouse or something, thankfully!

Thanks Guile. I just happened to check Thursday morning before work and saw that the Cromartie box and Abenobashi 4 were showing 2 in the counter, so I quickly placed the order. Hopefully I'll be able to track down Vol 3 of Abenobashi...
It would've been great to get Full Metal Panic and Azumanga, but those flew out of stock right after the sale started. I caught the sale about 2 hours after it was posted and already most of those volumes were OOS.
I have a few holes to fill, so I'll have to keep watch over the Bargain bin and hope that they come around.

Got my order today. I have to say that I'm impressed with rightstuf's shipping, it was all nicely and safely packaged, and I got it pretty quickly. The only annoying part is having to remove all of those damn security stickers while trying not to do any damage to the cover.
Speaking of damage, I was trying to peel some tape that got stuck off of my Trigun artbox and it took off a bit of paint. It PAINS me.

That review says it isn't quite hentai but one step removed from it. I guess that means it might be like Sprite, Strange Love or I Dream of Mimi (which are as close to hentai as I own). Oh well, I'll watch it and see for myself.

Here is my short little summary on how the Rightstuf cart works, for future reference.
Your cart is pretty much stored in the window you have open first and add your first item. If you continue to do all of your browsing and adding in that same window, you should have no problem with your cart emptying out.
There are a few things that will "wipe" your cart, but this is the main cause.
If you open a new window to Rightstuf and do a search (this includes clicking the banner to see sale items), it will move your cart to the window you did the search in. It will do this again if you open yet another window and do a new search.
If you have more than one cart due to circumstances, if you open a new window and do a search, it will move the cart that had an item added most recently.
Umm...there was something else I wanted to say, but I cannot remember. And this is probably confusing, and that's why I'm not a teacher.
Anyway, the part I made bold is the most important part of the message.

Thanks.
I was hoping to get the volume 3 and 4 of Cromartie also, but they were gone. I wasn't sure I wanted Kaliedo Star with half the first season missing, but it was either that, Gantz, or Elfen Lied and my interest in Gantz and Elfen Lied is minimal. Although, I was tempted to pull the trigger on Gantz just because they got more artboxes in stock.
Gilgamesh started interesting me a bit more once I read the previews on the Rightstuf site.

I'm a bit new to the current anime scene. My kids seem to enjoy the more mainstream stuff from Miyazaki (Spirited Away, Kiki's, etc.). Anything similar on these lists and how are the Macross series? I remember watching a lot of Macross when I was a kid and I don't know if the versions they're selling in this sale is the same or better (story and art-wise). I'm old and don't remember the specifics anymore.;)
Just trying to fill out a 25 title order. Have about 15 in my cart so far.
TIA!

Good luck. the anime scene has indeed changed from back than. I really dont think you'll find much to your liking on that list. Gotta have a wide array of tastes.

Thanks, that's what I've gathered from reading some of the descriptions of some of the titles. Maybe I'll just pick a few series and see how it goes.

I can recommend some series..but there not really kid friendly. lol
Neon Genesis (a must for anyone with even a tad bit of interest in anime)
Excel Saga (Very quirky. More of a humorous series.)
Gantz (Very dark. Lots of blood and limbs, and just overall a great action anime)
Noir ( an espionagey drama)

I don't know if it's still around, but you should definitely consider Area 88. They had both the original OVA and the new tv series available.
The macross series they have listed is the original, with digitally remastered audio and video. It's the original series also, not the Robotech version, so the story is abit different.

I'll check it out. Unfortunately, the 4 disc isn't offered for the Area88 tv series. OVA and TV 1-3. I'll put these on my short list.
FL: thanks for the heads up re: not kid friendly. I'll put those in the "adult" shelf of our bookcase if I pick up any.
Noir looks interesting plus vol. 1 has a free Tshirt. Gotta love those bonuses.
Excel looks really interesting, but it may be a bit too adult for the household according to the 17+ rating. Wife might get annoyed as well...;)
Just a general question. If there are missing volumes in these series, does it pose a continuity issue? Meaning if I don't get missing volumes, will I be hosed by missing those episodes?
Thanks for the feedback so far.

Most series you should buy in full or at least up to a certain number. Like dont buy Volume 5 of something and than 7. Youll be missing out on story elements.

I totally overlooked Divergence Eve: Misaki Chronicles. I have the first season of Divergence Eve and just skimmed right by the second season because my brain didn't register the fact that some of the Divergence Eve I was looking at was Misaki Chronicles. Oh well.

FMP:F box came in, so I had to make another order. There were 4 on the counter and they were gone in seconds.
Full Metal Panic: Fumoffu 1+box
Wedding Peach 1-6, 8-9 + boxes
RahXephon 1 + box
5 orders, 3 25's, 2 10's. I should feel ashamed.

During the past sales I never made more than 3 orders, usually 2 25's and a 10. Maybe that's why I'm sitting here feeling guilty for spending so much. But eh, you really can't beat these prices...

Thanks guys. Ended up with Mystical Detective series (minus v3) and Area88 titles (no v4 though), some FYE fodder and some filler (Noir v1) to sample.
I'll definitely keep an eye out for the another sale to get those missing volumes. I also hate to have incomplete sets but at these prices, I can be patient.
I'm really looking forward to watching Mystical Detective. I enjoy mythology and it will be interesting to see this anime twist on Norse mythology.

If you feel guilty, next time just do what I did. I ordered 13 dvds to sell @ FYE For $140, then i bought 12 dvds for myself. Basically, i'm making $40 and getting 12 dvds as a bonus.

Got my last order in today. The Cromartie box wasn't in perfect condition, but considering I essentially got a box, volume 1 DVD, and volume 1 manga for $4 I can't really complain.

They paid $9-$12 for nearly all of the Vol X w/ Artboxes. 13 of which were $11-12 each. They pay $17.25 for the Cromartie Vol 1 w/ box.

Nah, I don't feel that guilty. :lol: I bought DVDs that I actually want to own/watch, so it's ok. But definitely good to know how much FYE gives for used DVDs!

also a lot of people musta missed that some of the Andromeda collections they had along with the Farscape collections went for $8 as well @ FYE. So i ordered a bunch of those because artboxes will not always be generously accepted at all FYE locations...especially in excess O_o
