UK Anime Blu-ray & DVD Bargains

I don't mind them. If you're just buying them to stack on a shelf then the lack of a named spine sucks but I like to display mine like art. My issue is more with the finish of the images, they tend to be more flawed with scratches etc or just not as decent as a proper steel book printing (though I do have some proper format ones that look rubbish too). It's a little weird that AL do those cheap knockoff cases when manga UK do the proper steel book cases though.

I find it funny because most on disk content is borked in some way with manga.
 
Though I'd rather have had a steelbook if possible the set is still gorgeous to look at, and the series itself is superb!
 
Decided to go for Samurai Flamenco Part 1, was too good a price to refuse.

I'm not a fan of steelboxes either, no spine makes them look terrible on the shelf. Luckily AL have said after Empire of Corpses & Harmony they won't be doing any more releases using them. The reason i got the Gankutsou steelbox is it's the only eng friendly blu-ray release. If Funi or AL do a standard edition i'll probably replace with that if i like the show when i watch it. The same with EoC & Harmony so i'll be getting Funi's releases.
 
That's a nice deal for anyone who hasn't picked up any of the sets.

It'd be nice if the individuals were discounted too for those that have some but not all.

Yeah. That would probably be ideal for some people. Although, I just checked on ebay and brand new copies of the CE sets seem to sell for around £24 each, and this deal works out to £16.25 per set. So I think it would be easy to sell the parts you don't need and make a little money. :)

The less we spend in AL's sale, the more cash we have spare to spend in MVM's sale.

I....is that a good thing? It's payday tomorrow anyway so MVM should be cool.

Not really sure what MVM have that I would like, Log Horizon BDs on sale at a decent price would be nice I guess although I've just remembered Ergo Proxy BD is a thing I should order.

Definitely, I have the Funimation Blu Ray and it's great. Very interested to see what MVM has to offer
 
I've always prioritised buying Anime Limited sets to avoid the risk of them selling out (ever since I missed out on the Baccano CE) so it always seemed unlikely I'd find anything interesting in their offers, and so far that has been true. On the other hand I'm well behind on MVM purchases, so their offers could be very interesting for me (and devastating for my bank balance).
 
Only things I'd be interested from MVM are things like Ergo Proxy BR, Log Horizon S2 P2, and Berserk BR.

I doubt any of these 3 would end up on a decent sale due to how new they are.
