The Anime/Manga I Bought Today Was...

I went for both Film and TV mystery boxes from the All the Anime Christmas sale since I got some - if the clearance one is still around I may pick that up later on but this should hopefully be a solid selection. Any dupes I will list on my sell thread for those interested.

Ordered from All the Anime (Christmas Sale - Order 2).
  • Hanasaku Iroha: Blossoms for Tomorrow (BD)
  • Psycho-Pass: Sinners of the System (CE) (BD)
Psycho-Pass I would've ordered yesterday but it was OOS at the time. I was holding out for a standard edition but in case it doesn't recieve one (as sometimes not all AL titles do) I thought I might as well order this now while it's cheap. This also marks the start of my Psycho-Pass collection.

I also forgot to look at the MVM titles on ATA yesterday and I couldn't pass up on Hanasaku Iroha for £6.99, been wanting to check this series out for quite a few years now.

This has been a good year for AL from me when it comes to purchases. Usually I struggle to reach the shipping threshold for either of me orders.

So I went through my usual method... 1) Click on everything that looks interesting. 2) Delete the isekai (surprisingly light this year; only one title) 3) Delete what I already own, takes a bit of time checking a backlog of five years of unwatched AL and other anime titles. 4) Skim through the ANN Encyclopaedia pages for reviews and ratings; more green than red is good. 5) Check the collector's editions for physical bonuses beyond ten page artbooks and delete as appropriate (undelete some double dips with cheap LEs this year)

Three hours later, I have my orders.

Ordered from All the Anime (Christmas Sale - Order 3).
  • Ascendance of a Bookworm (Season 1 + 2) (BD)
  • Great Pretender (DE) (BD)
  • Kaiba (CE) (BD)
Kaiba I would've ordered with Psycho-Pass and Hanasaku Iroha the other day but it was OOS at the time.

Great Pretender I've been on and off about buying across multiple sales as it is a blind buy (though the series looks great) but I've really liked the Deluxe Edition set (despite how chunky it is) since day one so I decided to finally bite the bullet while it's on Flash Sale and for a decent price as it has been one of the pricier sets which isn't an UE.

Bookworm I added in there for the free delivery but at only £2.99 it's a steal plus I've heard it's one of the better isekai series out there.

I think that'll do it for orders on the CE side of things unless there is a really good Flash Sale I can't pass up but I may still get some items from the BOGOF section once I get paid.
