Nope. It's rare for Sentai to rerelease something on blu-ray that originally came out on DVD if it's ever even happened at all. Trust me, there have been several of their series that I really really wish had blu-ray versions but don't.

I'm surprised Rightstuf hasn't matched amazon's Spice And Wolf prices. I'm hoping they do, so I can just get them here and bump me up to free shipping

For Maid Sama is rather unlikely. However there have been a few series that Sentai Filmworks has done so (with the possibility for Clannad After Story later on).

• Clannad - 2 part DVD releases (sub only; Mar/May '09) -> DVD complete collection (bilingual release; Jun '10) -> Blu-ray complete collection (Nov '11)
• Ghost Hound - 2 part DVD releases (sub only; Oct/Dec '10) -> DVD and Blu-ray complete collections (bilingual release; Sep '10)
• Legends of the Dark King: Fist of the North Star Story - DVD complete collection (sub only; Sep '09) -> DVD and Blu-ray complete collections (bilingual release; Jul '10)
• Tears to Tiara - 2 part DVD releases (sub only; Nov '09/Jan '10) -> DVD and Blu-ray complete collections (bilingual release; Oct '10)

Hell yes, been waiting for a good time to get the Pandora Hearts manga.

Given that there is a blu ray release in Japan, I will wait til next Xmas and see how things go. Spent too damn much already anyways. Really enjoyed that show despite how silly it looks.

There being a Blu-ray release in Japan doesn't necessarily mean it will be released here as well; a lot of the shows that Sentai has released on only DVD lately have a Blu-ray release in Japan, such as MM!, Amagami SS, Nyan Koi!, Maria Holic, Koihime Muso, 11 Eyes, etc.

Another CAG from the Baltimore/Washington area, awesome.

Anyway, I haven't seen much that I wanted the past few days. I would like Pandora Hearts manga (I'm missing a few), but I'll wait a few days to see if there's anything else I want to order. I'm considering Shigofumi, Azumanga Daioh (Good possibility), Now and Then, Here and There (very likely I'm buying), and Chrono Crusade. Most everything else I already bought or own.

How depressing Now and then Here and There? I've passed on certain series (like Wolf's Rain) due to them just being so depressing that they're not enjoyable to watch. Another example of that is Basilisk. I loved the show, but it was so depressing that I could barely get through it, and I will never watch it again. Would I like this series? lol

I didn't find it depressing at all found Wolf's Rain sad though. Than again I'm one of those who watched Grave of the Fireflies and wasn't depressed at all by it so I'm rare.

I submitted the form to customer service listed as defective since their packaging is pretty solid so I doubt it was from shipping. Hopefully they accept it and send me a shipping label this thing is pretty heavy.

If you didn't find Now and Then, Here and There depressing, then I don't know what to say, since that show is messed up. Being depressing though doesn't mean that it isn't really damn good — because it is really damn good.

Unfortunately with the way Right Stuf's customer service works, you have to ship the book back yourself.

They won't. They will tel you to reseal it and write return to sender on it, which I think is Illegal if it has been opened.

This is true and it is one of the reasons, I do not buy from them that often anymore.

You're right, once it's opened USPS can no longer take back the package as rejected. Seeing as how this was part of a large order with their giant boxes I can't reseal it. If I have to pay shipping I'll probably suck it up and keep it since I'm planning to buy more stuff by the time day 12 comes up.

I find Rightstuf tends to have the better prices on books so that's why I keep using them and until now I've never had any issues. Amazon tends to price at retail and Borders was actually pretty comparable when they were nearing their final months but obviously aren't around anymore.

I watched a few episodes on scifi channel, it was pretty depressing with some really unsavory moments in it, not to say it wasnt a good show. I loved evangelion and ergo proxy despite how depressing some episodes were.
