you sig is winner....best robot ever in any tv show ever

As if Akira didn't get marked up enough already.

FFFUUUuuu... I wanted it on Blu-ray badly.

Luckily about 90% of the stuff I watch is Funimation.

I'll wager that they will license the DVD releases to another resource.

I am pretty sure Chars Counter Attack got a US release.

Yeah it did. It had an original release that came with a slipcase, and an anime legends re-release.

He was referring to Gundam ZZ, though I had to do a double-take on that one, too.

Correct, to lazy to revise. Though I hope some day in the future that who ever rereleases it whether it be bandai japan or whoever that they finally give zz a release but I won't hold my breath because of how old it is.

Yeah, I left out some of the films that go along with the series. Char's Counterattack and F91 are probably the most essential items that I omitted. Very sad about Gundam ZZ (double zeta). A buddy of mine who is a huge Gundam nut is always complaining that they've never released it. He actually bought one of those knock-off sets from the Philippines just to get his hands on it.

And no, no sane person is interested in the SD Gundam crap. I might have to put Char's Counterattack and F91 in the shopping cart the next time I hit up right stuf.

I really wish Char's Counterattack would be released on Blu-Ray, I love that movie. It's probably the only anime title that I would be willing to pay Japanese prices for; it's too bad the their release isn't subtitled.

hoping funimation got blu ray release of code geass....

So I checked Amazon for Hayate the Combat Butler Volume 8. This is what I got.

3 new from $500.00 1 used from $999.99

Good thing my local anime store has it for $40.

I'll probably regret doing so, but I picked up The Girl Who Leapt Through . . . Space (). They averaged out to $15 apiece through Amazon secondary sellers and TRSI. The concept sounded like it might be amusing, and although it seems like a show that would be right in Funimation's wheelhouse, I can't imagine it selling well enough for them to actually pick up the license.

I didn't realize how much of my collection was from Bandai until I started looking at the list of titles and went, "Got it. Got it. Got it. Got it . . . ."

I guess when you buy three amine series from Amazon, they put a number of them in your Gold Box.

Ones sitting in there for the moment are:
Elfen Lied Complete Collection - $20.83
Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2 - $28.49
Cowboy Bepop Remix (already have this one)
Trigun: Badlands Rumble - $20.61 (DVD)
Blue Submarine #6 Complete Collection - $17.08
Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion Complete 1st Season - $46.53

Any worth biting on?

Elfen Lied is not a bad series, but it is SUPER dark. I'm not exaggerating, the subject matter and material in that series is extremely dark and disturbing. Tread lightly.

Code Geass is a great series. While the Amazon price for the second season is good, their price for the first season is probably too high. Pick it up at Right Stuf instead, its currently on their weekly specials and is going for $29.99 for each season set.

Trigun: Badlands Rumble is for existing fans of the series. It is a side-story movie, and in that respect is quite good. But it doesn't even bother introducing the characters or setting. If you are not already familiar with Trigun, you will probably be somewhat lost. If you are already a Trigun fan though, it is a great little romp.

Blue Submarine #6 is weird. It's just plain weird. There are only four episodes in the series, so character development is a bit shallow. The setting is one of the more appealing aspects of this brief series. It's really a toss-up on whether or not you will like it.

But Elfen Lied is a good one if you like to question humanity and their morals. xD Like what Richard Kain said, it is very dark and gruesome but I think that was one of the reason why it became so popular. And if you want more, you can always read the Manga.

You think Elfen Lied is "SUPER dark"? Try watching "Higurashi: When They Cry" and let me know what you think.

$20 for Elfen Lied is a decent price, if you're into gory, psychological shows. $46 for Code Geass, Season 1 is a bit steep---you can get it for $30 on RightStuf.com

Higurashi: When They Cry is too good.

Higurashi: When They Cry

crazy scene

Code Geass is a superior anime, but that's too high a price. Look for $20-25 on season 1/2. Elfen Lied is blood and tits to the extreme. If that's not for you, skip it. If it is, I think you can find a slightly cheaper version (even though it's worth the asking price). We're talking one-two dollars cheaper, that is.

Blue Sub isn't worth getting. Trigun is worth it sub-$15 if you loved the original series. Otherwise, skip it.

Edit: We playing "darkest anime"?
