From the Crunchyroll sale.
I was only going to buy Solo Leveling standard but found this reduced on the CR site and it was £16 more. As I'll splash out on the S2 LE, I went for it.
Bought No Longer to push me over the free post limit.
I do wish it was clearer that they post from Europe as it sat in a warehouse for 11 days. I would have just paid the UK price.
No disrespect to the Christmas sale thread.
Can't wait to hear some of Osamu's child inappropriate stories.

#9: Terracotta February Box Set Pre-Orders Haul
The remainder of the February titles from the world of Asian Cinema finally showed up. I was worried initially as Royal Mail hadn't received them initially in the usual timeframe but I kept my cool and eventually the tracker updated. The weekend pace probably got in the way. What we have are three box sets from distributors Radiance Films, Third Window Films and Eureka Entertainment.
The first box set is from Radiance Films and their monthly Asian pick is Sadao Nakajima's The Japanese Godfather Trilogy, featuring 1977's Japanese Godfather (やくざ戦争 日本の首領) and Japanese Godfather: Ambition (日本の首領 野望篇) and 1978's Japanese Godfather: Conclusion (日本の首領 完結篇). I have heard this trilogy is pretty good and I anticipate this selling fast given the concept. This limited edition includes rigid packaging, two Scanavo cases and a booklet.
The second box set is from Third Window Films with Takashi Ishii: The Angel Guts Collection, featuring five of six films (due to issues surrounding the first film which won't get a re-release in any shape or form as it stands); Chūsei Sone's 1979 film Angel Guts: Red Classroom (天使のはらわた 赤い教室), Noboru Tanaka's 1979 film Angel Guts: Nami (天使のはらわた 名美), Toshiharu Ikeda's 1981 film Angel Guts: Red Porno (天使のはらわた 赤い淫画), Takashi Ishii's 1988 film Angel Guts: Red Vertigo (天使のはらわた 赤い眩暈) and 1994 film Angel Guts: Red Flash (天使のはらわた 赤い閃光), the latter of which is also included in Takashi Ishii: 4 Tales of Nami release but has been included here as an added bonus to make the collection more complete. I have an unboxing available for this release.
The third box set is from Eureka Entertainment with Tomu Uchida's Zen and Sword: The Miyamoto Musashi Saga at Toei, featuring 1961's Miyamoto Musashi (宮本武蔵), 1962's Miyamoto Musashi II: Showdown at Hannyazaka Heights (宮本武蔵 般若坂の決斗), 1963's Miyamoto Musashi III: Birth of the Two Sword Style (宮本武蔵 二刀流開眼), 1964's Miyamoto Musashi IV: Duel at Ichijyo-Ji (宮本武蔵 一乗寺の決斗), and 1965's Miyamoto Musashi V: Duel at Ganryu Island (宮本武蔵 巌流島の決斗). Miyamoto Musashi is a figure I've always been intrigued to see more of, and this box set is a great way to check it out (plus we have Capcom's Onimusha: Way of the Sword featuring the character in their own take later in the year). This limited edition includes rigid packaging, two Amaray cases and a big booklet.

#10: Bugonia & Snakes on a Plane
I had the day off work (because I'll be working the weekend) and before I went to see The Secret Agent, I visited the HMV store and picked up two films for the 4K Ultra HD format.
Yorgos Lanthimos's 2025 film Bugonia starring Emma Stone (La La Land), Jesse Plemons (Killers of the Flower Moon), Aidan Delbis (My Movie Starring Paul Dano) and Stavros Halkias (Tires). This Academy nominated film is an American remake of Jang Joon-hwan's 2003 South Korean film Save the Green Planet! which Arrow Video just recently released on 4K Ultra HD also, and I didn't know that until sometime after the film was released in cinemas. From what I have heard, this film is best compared to Suspiria in which the two versions have similar elements but different plots and tones and received well in their own ways.
David R. Ellis' 2006 film Snakes on a Plane starring Samuel L. Jackson (Pulp Fiction), Julianna Margulies (Dinosaur), Nathan Phillips (Wolf Creek) and Kenan Thompson (The Grinch). This B-Movie classic featuring the iconic line was recently released by Arrow Video as part of a package deal they had with Warner Bros so it was a good opportunity to pick it up. I've watched the film before but I don't know if I saw it in its entirety. Arrow's limited edition includes an o-card slipcase, a card and booklet.

#11: ACA Neo Geo Selection Vol. 1-4 & Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 Remake
Earlier in the month, Canadian retailer Video Games Plus ran a special promotion that offers 2x points. I always missed this chance because there wasn't much to choose from but considering they release imports I decided to place an order for a couple of Nintendo Switch games.
The Switch games were Hamster Corporation's ACA Neo Geo Selection Volumes 1-4, which compiles 10 Neo Geo games in each volume. These include fighting games, sports games, side-scrolling shooters games and more from SNK.
ACA Neo Geo Selection Volume 1 includes Alpha Mission II, Garou: Mark of the Wolves, The King of Fighters '94, Metal Slug X, Riding Hero, Samurai Shodown V, Savage Reign, Shock Troopers, Top Hunter: Roddy & Cathy, and Top Player's Golf.
ACA Neo Geo Selection Volume 2 includes Baseball Stars Professional, Fatal Fury 2, Ghost Pilots, The King of Fighters '95, Metal Slug 4, Mutation Nation, Neo Turf Masters, Samurai Shodown, Shock Troopers: 2nd Squad, and Stakes Winner 2.
ACA Neo Geo Selection Volume 3 includes 3 Count Bout, Baseball Stars 2, Blazing Star, Fatal Fury: King of Fighters, The King of Fighters '96, Last Resort, Ninja Combat, Samurai Shodown III: Blades of Blood, Sengoku, and World Heroes Perfect.
ACA Neo Geo Selection Volume 4 includes Art of Fighting 3: The Path of the Warrior, The King of Fighters 2000, The Last Blade, Metal Slug, Neo Geo Cup '98: The Road to the Victory, Ninja Commando, Pulstar, Puzzled, Ragnagard, and The Super Spy.
There's 10 volumes in total and these ACA games are part of the same emulation that Hamster have done with Arcade Archives 1 & 2 and Console Archives, which includes save states, button customisation, online rankings, and screen settings.
Next we have another order that I placed with Video Games Plus and I wasn't sure when they were going to ship it out as it was listed as a pre-order, since its physical just got released recently for this particular version.
Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 Remake: Destiny and Strategy Expansion Pack is a re-release of Koei Tecmo's turn-based strategy remake released in October 2024, which is based on the 2001 Koei game. The eighth instalment in this long-running franchise is considered one of the best and I heard it's very good. Now this re-release includes the Destiny and Strategy Expansion Pack which is exclusive to this physical disc for those who want to play this new content in English (yes that's right in a bizarre move, you can't get this pack digitally on the PlayStation Store in English though its available on Steam).

I received one Sentai Blu-ray Collector's Edition today from DeepDiscount. I wasn't planning on getting this one because of the less than favorable subtitle changes, but I watched a few episodes of the series and decided it was Ok enough to get it, especially since it is a steelbook release. This one came with 4 steelbook-sized refrigerator magnets in a resealable bag stuffed inside the clear plastic slipcover behind the steelbook:
