I adore it, but I can't think of a series that would benefit less from a Blu-ray upgrade than Haibane Renmei. The upscale for the existing Japanese BD is absolutely awful, and it will never look any better due simply to the era and method in which it was made.

Wee order from the Arrow sale.

Been meaning to get around to picking this up for ages, figured I'd get it from the Prime Day sale since it was a decent price.

Personally, I have very mixed feelings on Maid-sama. The show makes a big point about its MC being a strong, independent woman who don't need no man, only for her to spend most of the show getting herself into situations where she is literally rescued by a man. Said man, when you look at his...

A replacement would be pointless, I'm pretty sure it affects the entire run, my copy has the same issue, and I've seen plenty of others saying theirs had it as well. I even saw a reply from Tokyopop to someone who asked about it, and they replied that it was deliberate so you could enjoy the art...

From the review: Personally, I think leaving onscreen text completely untranslated is a few levels above "nit-picky" criticism. AL literally did a replacement scheme in the past for similar issues with Durarara, IIRC.

With Miura's unfortunate passing, I decided maybe I should finally check out this "Berserk" I've heard so much about.

Two very different books showed up today.

Obligatory Planetes photo.

I also only got one set of stamps with VE (did anyone actually get two? Every mention I've seen is people only getting one), but I can't say I'm that fussed if the two sets are identical.

One in what will likely be an ocean of Violet Evergarden pics.

I wouldn't hold my breath for Patlabor, IIRC, MVM all but explicitly ruled it out, saying that their BD of the OVAs sold very poorly.

I'm not a huge Gundam fan, but I've heard pretty much nothing but positive stuff about this one, and that it doesn't really require having watched any previous Gundam shows. Plus I'm a sucker for a pretty box, so I thought I'd grab a copy before it goes completely OOP.

From DeepDiscount, with their recent -15% code.

Had this arrive earlier today, from iam8bit, pre-ordered almost a year ago. Not sure why the slipcover is shorter than the case, looks a bit odd tbh.

From Mandarake. Please don't judge me for opting for copies of the artbooks that still had the GBF serial code intact...
