The Anime/Manga I Bought Today Was...

latest pickups
FLCL - from the AOL deal of the day - haven't seen this in a long long time, didn't like it as much as most seem to at the time, so thought it was high time for a rewatch
Log Horizon S1P1 - finally tracked down a reasonally priced copy, why did this one get so expensive?!
School Live & Ping Pong - bought from CapybaraRfriend on this site's marketplace (thx!) - can't wait to rewatch Ping Pong, a modern classic (looks up when it aired, wait 8 years ago!??!? gulp)

I'm not at 4K yet but as I'm watching A Better Tomorrow right now (because you mentioned it!), I see improvements in the spoken language to subtitles that could be improved. And I suppose with the clarity.
It would be nice if you could let us know if it's a lot better to watch than my 2006? Steelbook.
I like the sequel more than the first film.

I have the remastered in 4K HK blu-ray, which was already an improvement over the old HK blu-ray. I recommend that one, since the one I mentioned in my post is the upcoming 4K UHD coming in Japan. It won’t be English friendly, but I‘m looking forward to the PQ.

Thank for getting me to watch it again. It's been several years.
Next is Outrage Beyond and The Killer.
Btw I have a copy of the Killer at my Mum's and she put it on and enjoyed it.
She's 80. 🤕

You like ME, Not my Daughter?!

Started it already. Mean this sincerely, I think it's going to be really nice.

I actually really want to read this too! It looks... kinda cute and sweet for something that's I think at least a bit ero? And I haven't seen the dude yet so fingers crossed he's hot too but she's just really heccin' pretty plus her boobs are big but at least don't look utterly ridonculous like say in High School of the Dead. I actually showed a friend of mine the cover cuz I thought it looked like a fun series and he bought a copy of the first volume even though I haven't bought it yet! XD
 
Um, her boobs are bigger than her head, and they aren't 'udderly' ridiculous? Yeah, Ok... No thanks for me - give me some cute, perky A or B cups, please - like my avatar has!

All I'm saying is they don't look as ridiculous as the tits from High School of the Dead lol and I have nothing against small breasts or people with small breasts tbf... (now I'm trying to figure out how big one of my F-cup boobs is in relation to my head... but tbf I have to wear bigger than average sized hats lol)

I have read 30 or 40 pages and it has been enjoyable. I like a romance every now and again.
Would certainly recommend.


The Dude is HOT.
