    UK Anime Christmas Sales for 2025 [Anime Ltd's 12 Days of Xmas + More]

    Those CR set prices are actually pretty decent. Worth re-posting in the deal thread as not everyone will see it buried deep in this thread, at sale's end. That aside... 'Tis most displeasing to have waited all 12-13 days for AL to stop flashing me - in the misguided hope the final flasher...

    'Tis indeed an excellent way to save money ordering steelbooks: use the Amazon app, switch regions. Done that with Leon, Godfather and others to avoid paying silly oop prices for UK copies, and as Snippy says, only difference is the removeable card. Steelbooks themselves identical. Although...

    Oof. Where as Cid got ze run around by the Royal Mail with Devilman, you likely unwittingly sprung a 🪤 by ordering them together. PB was sent awhile ago for most. Will have to remember for future pre-orders: the lone wolf path is the best. T'would appear Anime Limited fell behind with...

    All our hopes lay with you, Rizzler. I look forward to you unveiling the mystery box contents for us all, before the sale ends. Girls with Guns failed us, by not ordering them. I believe in you~ Google, this is not the time to waver, soundtrack or no: remember thine ReZero bullet points that...

    Not a BAD price but also not an amazing discount when it can be had for £24.99 on Amazon, anytime. The earlier flashers were ok, last few suggest 💡>🤷. 'Tis something that would've been better in the film mystery box as Squiggle said, or just in with the CE/stocking filler categories. Not sure...

    I can definitely see the appeal of listening for 20mins, getting up, and switching/watching it play. It's never going to be the same letting a playlist auto-play. And attention can drift so you are listening without really listening. Bit like the difference between reading a book, and an ebook...

    'Tis perplexing to have a part 1 CE, that does not hold the second half. All the more so given pt2 isn't a standalone CE. It's a shame as my other S&W boxed set is an import Funimation DVD -sized one/a tad tatty. Was hoping for a blu-ray all-in-oner. Amazon are, as ever, useless with...

    Today is a good day: it is not often one receives a new(ish) copy of an old favourite. I skipped the UK release in the past, as I own the R1 ver. A friend directed me to a review (by a user that still posts on here/codename 'The Turbanator', iirc: @Just Passing Through?) that highlighted the PAL...

    A Gungrave reference, and four paragraphs... on AUKN!? I like you already, and may be willing to accept you as a randomly rambling disciple. That aside, this reminds me: next month Gungrave will be returning on blu-ray, much like Brandon Heat: (from) Beyond za Grave. Let us pray the transfer is...

    Despite not own owning a vinyl player, I was verrrry tempted--the only flasher to lure me in thus far. Death Note is one of two anime soundtracks I love 🎸. There's nothing else like it my ears have heard, with it going from cool detective beats to despair freely - some tracks that play only...

    Mate, you need to understand something: @Girls with Guns is a BIG fish; bigger than the one depicted in Skwiggles avatar. 🐋 They get expeditated delivery to the other side of world, with order(s) sent before they could even cancel (whilst UK day1 orders are still waiting), and are STILL upset...

    So What's Your Avatar Pic?

    Cum to think, a lot of people in their 30-50s on 'ere. Few on MAL would know of it/younger fans though. Think it on Amazon/Prime, all the same. Glad I not only one that remembers--was worried I'd be mistaken for an ion tbh. Crossed mind as posted its Romeo/Juliet aspect would make it appeal...

    So What's Your Avatar Pic?

    I can hear Saber's voice now, too, damnit... although I mix it up with Chaika/burai! girl's voice. 🫨 Changed my avatar, inspired by this thread/ 🎅. My prev/usual avatar is of my namesake, Aion: a charismatic white-haired, forever smirking villain from 2004ish anime, Chrno/Chrono Crusade. I got...

    Cyberpunk CE dispatched on my end too, I'm happy to report. 5pm on release day not ideal but eh, received Devilman early and PB was also sent asap (received before Devilman iirc). Balances out. Maybelline~ I had mine sent the 4th, arrived on the 6th. So, the same as you, just without Royal...

    Fret not, Snippy, for I was not replying to anything you said; only Google. It escaped me that the normal price is not £34.99 each, and that that was the early birdy price originally. Regardless, the bullet point arguments hold weight, and he has swayed me against purchasing Re Zero S2.

    The Golgo 13 sniper avatar, paired with your man of few words messaging style matching his persona, had me second guessing myself (I had gotten 'Bou' confused with 'Beau'). Thankfully, Google/d.higgens stepped in, in my absence, to cross-check the website description... and spot another, more...

    Thank you, Google: your bullet points have opened my eyes to the truth. I was going to make the mistake of ordering two parts of what should be one complete set; deceived by the price being cut in half. The sad reality is, Anime Limited are not trying and, in fact, their most recent flasher...

    PS: @Hanny, there is an additional, somewhat minor issue I am unsure if you can correct, to go alongside my Cyberpunk CE 8th query/delay suspicion (is it still on time/just as planned?): the Devilman leaflet-thing has a... typo?, and an incorrect run-time for good measure as 10 episodes<<<>>>119...

    I am dismayed by both the lack of activity in this thread, and your lack of overflowing excitement at the prospect of paying £70 instead of £90, for two parts of the same box set. It IS worth it... depending on the affection you hold for rabbits 🐰 🐇 ; of this I will guarantee. In all...
