UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

I think my physical media anime purchases last year were the most I ever spent in one year, well into 5-figures $$ total... plus another huge chunk for the 150 anime posters I imported, and spent on all the archival supplies for them.

I think my physical media anime purchases last year were very close to $12,000 total... plus another huge chunk for the 150 anime posters I imported, and spent on all the archival supplies for them.

Oh hey, I spent 800 GBP on AL, which is the bulk of anime stuff I buy - feeling preeeettaaay good about myself

Me to every question about CEs and extras and stuff:



I'm sure AL will be pleased to know I've given them the impressive total of £20 in the past year anyway

Lol tbh I only gave them £40 for the Lupin part 5 set. But a brief look at my history shows way more than that anyway.

A lot of their recent releases are awfully obscure for me.

Even being over in the US, I spent about £500 importing AL CE titles from AlltheAnime last year, and probably twice that amount on AL CE titles from MVM's AOL site because of their cheaper international shipping. I buy AL CEs in bulk from AlltheAnime during their sales with the free international shipping, so I do sign up annually for the AnimeUNLimited option to save even more.

My £20 was for Lupin part IV and Fujiko Mine on BOGOF!

This is clear evidence that everyone loves Lupin and AL should release more Lupin.

Lupin's true sales potential will only be unlocked when Koike's OVAs get the AL treatment wink wink

Incidentally, if he gets around to finishing his take eventually, that'd be cool

I like how others actually researched their answers to give precise amounts for anime spend. Me, I'm too scared to look back and see just how much money I have spent on this little hobby.

Oh alright. I checked my order status on ATA. Around £250. Hmm, not too bad. Now, these receipts from RightStuf ..... oh, around $1,250 (£1,000). I'm too scared to look at my MVM order history now (at least Amazon, eBay, Rarewaves, UPI, HMV and Zavvi were all just one or two each).

I think I've worked out why I'm broke.

How do I know if the survey was submitted successfully? I'm on a screen that says "create a typeform" which links to creating some kind of account (which I am not going to do).

I assumed that was a post-survey advert.

Thanks, I just hope that my submission was successful as there was never any indication that the survey was successfully completed.

You get your wish but now AL charges £399 per Gundam UE with the free ice cream

Just how fancy is this gosh-darn free icecream?!

It comes in its own outer slipcase. It's not a rigid slipcase though, that's how you know it is the ultimate edition ice cream.
