Big clearout

I have quite a few series in my backlog, probably not as much as others, by i still seem to buy at a rate faster than i watch, add to this i have series that i want to rewatch, i like it that way though, if i don't have anything to do then i can always watch something new.
I still have Fruits basket to watch
Spiral
the second half of shana series 1 and series 2, i should finish those before i import series 3 though
i still have to finish shiki
i have like the last 4 episodes of both durarara and spice and wolf, and for some reason have not got around to finishing them, especially strange considering i really love them (yes a confession online, how sordid :) )II
I have code geass season 2, although i think i'm gonna start that very soon.
i'm just beginning noir, and if i like it i'll try and get madlax
Eden of the east movies
Bodacious space pirates
Needless
Tiger and bunny (watched the first ep)
samurai champloo (watched the first 6 eps)
XXXholic
and i think that's all my backlog

thing is with me i watch my anime, a while back i was down on my backlogs * i had probably 8 or so series/movies to watch,

i like to keep a big backlog just in case i dont come in to money and so i did this -

watch the long running series by watching them 4 or 5 episodes a day e.g. -

the gundam franchise
yu yu hakusho
inuyasha
slayers
stuff like that.

rewatch a few anime

and after iv finished all my long running series and gained a bigger backlog im tired after watching the long running series and i start watching the short to longest series iv got in my backlog and then i restart this cycle all over again

Either you've been cribbing from my playbook, or I've been cribbing from yours, because that's exactly my strategy for watching anime.

to be honest its a great strategy to watch anime but theres a downside to it-

if your one of those guys trying to watch as many anime as you possibly can but trying to watch 4 a day to get a backlog then thats it,

i * try* to watch fewer episodes so what iv watched today will be in my head til tomorrow but its hard because i want to see what happens next * most people here knows what im talking about * hell even if i keep away from the dvd i always end up on wiki to find out what happens next * but not this time im focused *

anyways like i said i watch the longer running series by watching 4 episodes a day * if the series is longer then a 100+ il try to watch 6 a day* to get my backlog up as much as i can,

to the problem - after watching these longer running series theres loads of anime so little time so thats why after watching the long series i watch the shortest to longest movies/ series so i can caught up with them,

it be better if i just watch all the shortest first but like i said again and again watch long series to build backlog.

im happy because i getting 3 from FourthLion one of thems a manga collection dvd and the other ones a highly recommended and the others a mecha anime which im a sucker for,

i might buy a boatload monday depending.
 
Not yet dude. Sent a couple of people's items back on Friday but I'll be sending yours tomorrow. Been a bit restricted by closures over bank holiday weekend.
 
you know the singles of the series you've got, well those must be old editions cause these days there done in collections, parts or in sets, or if there a 13 episode series then they could still have 3 dvds
 
just received them,

spirals boxset and cases are a bit beaten up but the discs look ok * i can replace the cases *
amon saga disc isn't at 100% but nothing like a good clean wouldn't fix
tekkaman blade * looks beautiful *

look at me complain while iv got 2 rare anime and 1 thats never been opened
hey FourthLion thank you ^_^
 
The Spiral set had never been opened from it's plastic wrap stuff (it was used when I bought it), so tbh I had no idea what the condition was. Probably should've checked.

Amon Saga I agree has some sticker residue etc on it, but I did sell it for £2 :p

Those Tekkaman Blade sets do look cool, I think that's why I bought them. I don't really have any interest in mecha lol.

And yeah I'm aware the singles are old. I used to prefer buying them in singles, especially when the first/last came with an artbox, but now I'm running out of shelf space and you can get a series muchc heaper buying in a smaller set I guess I'm glad the market has gone away from that.

I assume this means Danielle, mangaddicted and animenut should've received their stuff too?

Got my stuff today, with exception to the slayers packaging condition, which was a liiiitttttlllle frayed, the discs were fine and everything else was just super, thanks a lot, now im gonna sit back, watch and enjoy
 
Oh yeah, I was gonna message you about the name thing lol. I got to the post office and I had your address but not your name. I know you wrote it down on the piece of paper you sent but I didn't have it here on AUKN and I couldn't remember it and I didn't think it was appropriate to put our username. I thought I remembered your first name but then it turns out I got your name mixed up with AnimeNut :p

Sorry bro, but I've sent out something like 50 packages in the last week and a half and I'm getting totally mixed up and snowed under! If it helps I totally knew it was wrong as soon as I handed it over, but it was too late!

Yeah that's the problem with those old Funimation budget sets, the cardboard deteriorates quickly. All it's done is sat on my shelf for years, not sure how it gets like that, nbut my Viridian Gunslinger Girl set is the same.

Oh by the way you managed to get a bargain with all those sets, I should've charged you p&p as it end up costing me almost £15 to send!
