It's OK. Solid adventure series but nothing groundbreaking.

One Piece, all mine. \o/

...and Ouran too.

Looks great. Too bad I don't have money to enjoy it.

Btw, if anyone is interested. Death Note Re-Light, Vol.1 and 2 are 3.99 each at Best Buy, YMMV of course.

And here I told myself I was done spending this weekend after getting my vita and tv.

But oh well, have to get that Fairy Tail

I got Dragon Ball Kai Set 3, Naruto Shippuuden Movie 2, and Chobits all on blu-ray. Been waiting forever for DB Kai Set 3 to drop in price since it came out. There are other sets I am interested in getting also, but my wallet has been bled dry in the past few days.

Uh Oh someone should have waited

Doesn't necessarily mean it's going to be cheaper though. Rightstuf ran some same sale items last year too, but some were more expensive from Rightstuf than they were with the Amazon sale, so we'll just have to see.

I spent too much money my wallet can't take much more of this but my credit card on the other hand may be able to take a little more punishment...

so these cyber deals how long do they usually last??? as in is it monday only or what???

I hate buying Funimation box sets that are split into mutliple seasons like Shakugan 1 or Strike Witches 1, becuase I know down the line they'll be re-released as complete box sets in the near future.

I'm hoping I learned my lesson now after being burned by their other releases.

I wonder if Ergo Proxy will go any lower during Rightstuf's December sales? I really want it, but I've spent so much already...

Per Amazon promo email, the discounts for DB/DBZ/DBGT related titles are suppose to go on sale until December 24th. No official word on the other FUNimation titles.

Most Funimation box sets aren't like that. Plus, I don't think they combine 24-26 episode seasons together, ever. Shana S1 probably won't be combined with S2, but the two S2 halves will probably be combined (which I'm waiting on).

Shana's 2 seasons will provably be combined with the movie and OVA, but probably not until Spring 2014. Look how long it took for School Rumble and Soul Eater to get complete sets.

is Chaos;Head any good?

Is $28 a pop the lowest those Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood sets have gone for, or have they hit a lower pricepoint before? Someone I know wants it for Christmas so I'm definitely going to pick it up, but I'm wondering if I should wait for a lower price.

You would think but...

Funimation fooled us again by combining Soul Eater 1 and Soul Eater 2 (both having 25-26 eps) into the new "Soul Eater Complete Collection" all 51 epsidodes in a set!

Funimation = Capcom of anime. Consumer double-dipping is not an option for them, it's a requirement.

If a Funimation title has the words like "First Season" or "Part 1", and contains only 12-13 episodes, I literally stay away from them. Becuase 99% of the time they will re-release these again in a complete set.

To be fair anime publishers in general do this with their series all the time, so it's not really a Funimation exclusive thing. I think it's really just the nature of anime in general that this tends to happen because looking all my stuff from Viz, Anime Works, and ADV stuff, they're all exactly the same with the split boxes of the seasons, and then I know there is already a re-release of it in a more complete box. And to be fair this is a much better alternative than how they used to do it, which was from volume to volume, and each volume has 3-4 episodes per disc on it. I don't really know what you have against Funimation specifically, but to be fair it's not like they're exclusively the ones doing it when pretty much every other anime publisher does the same thing.
