I’m keep seeing mention of expected Easter sales, so I’m guessing this is something that happens annually. Being my first year properly collecting Anime, I wanted to ask what do we typically expect from them? I’m guessing not quite as crazy as the 12 days of Christmas!

Does anyone else always feel a little sad whenever they arrive on the forums and see that there's no new posts in the UK Anime Blu-ray & DVD Bargains thread? 😛😭

Three JoJo's Bizarre Adventure / Hirohiko Araki art books from Japan: JoJo6251, TV Anime Key Frame Collection AAA, and JOJOnicle. First purchases from CDJapan, was super happy with them. Books new and in perfect condition. Amazing prices compared to elsewhere online. No other import/vat/delivery...

Araki predicts 9/11 in Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Published in October 1990, chapter 189 (Vol. 20) of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga introduces us to the character, Boingo. He has a power to predict the future, with his precognitions displayed in the form of a weirdly drawn comic book. Near...

Thank you @Dan and @HWR for recommending UP1 as well, that's really useful. I'd heard it mentioned a few times but hadn't really taken notice of it, so I'm grateful. I do actually need to order some US sets too, so I'll check it for those and enjoy having a browse through their full catalogue...

Thank you for the thoughts everyone! It's useful and definitely interesting to collate these opinions. It's a little sad but general consensus (so far) seems to be that art cards are not hugely useful or held in high anticipation, although I'm glad that some of us enjoy/use them and they're not...

Nice! I’ll probably check this out. Not the biggest fan of horror themes. However, I do remember not knowing anything of Cube and randomly watching it one night on Sky many, many, years ago. It has stuck with me since, haha! The intrigue of the wider world and mystery of the situation is part...

Wanted to say that this is such a great thread and collection. Well done! Both are organised so nicely and are aesthetically pleasing! I think the way you’ve organised the full shelf and collection looks really nice. Plus, I really like how you frame your photo shots of individual products...

As a newbie to the hobby, I’m already gathering quite a collection of art cards from BD / DVD sets. So, I was wondering what you all generally do with your art cards and what the consensus of the forum is. I’m currently leaving them unopened in their plastic wrapping. Part of me wants to have...

Currently deep into JoJo's. So, I'm having my first foray into the art books from Japan. I'm working up to JOJO A-GO!GO! and eventually to JOJOVELLER, which will be really exciting. I was very happy to get the below new at these prices.

@Neil.T that's incredibly helpful! ありがとうございます Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a full reply. That's really kind and greatly appreciated! That all makes complete sense on both answers and you did a great job of explaining it. Good to hear I was on the right tracks. Are you a...

Hello all! I joined during the Xmas sales this year and I have to say this place is incredibly useful and it has been very welcoming too! There’s several threads I now check daily, so I wanted to firstly say thank you for the content and sharing of info! Being relatively newly into...

A reminder that the 40% off Zavvi sale ends tomorrow, 4th Feb. So, if you were planning on picking anything up and you haven’t already, now is the time! https://www.mangauk.com/the-zavvi-anime-sale-has-begun/

Very glad they split my delivery on an order that included a lot of released items alongside a pre-order of Planetes. That would have been a long wait! 😛 I keep hearing that Konosuba is a really fun series, so I’ll try to find time to watch it soon and see if it’s something I’d like to pick up.

Secretly head of the Accelerate Bread Going Stale Society. They believe in doing everything possible to make bread go stale as quickly as possible. This includes keeping bread in the freezer but then “accidentally” unplugging it and shipping the freezer to the equator.

Ah! Well, one further possibility then is that you get a stand-alone multi-regional DVD player (not BD as well). They are hugely cheaper and much more readily available. There’s loads on Amazon in the £20-30 price range. If you do that, then you could still use the PS3 for the BD disks you have...

Good to hear, re: it being better with the new HDMI. Yep; hopefully an even better one will be the fix you need! But yes, I expect the PS3 would retain all of those features as normal. A few people have now PM’d me about the links, advice etc. So, if you ever want to, please feel free to as well.

That one by Dan above looks good. Another potential and free option. Do you happen to have a PS3 you no longer use? If so, it’s now incredibly easy to make it multi-regional through installing a custom OS and program. It enables a new menu option where you can simply change the region at any...

Ha! What have you ordered so far and what else are you interested in potentially picking up?
