How depressing is Haibane renmei? Reading the description and watching the trailer it looks like a miserable experience. I prefer happier content, but don't mind bleaker settings if the content has a relatively positive protagonist like Girls last tour and Kino's journey.

Not very, if you're thinking Texhnolyze levels of depression. It plays a slice-of-life mystery, upbeat for the most part, but the overall themes can be considered dark. You'll only get those towards the end of the story though, and it certainly doesn't end on a downer.

I wouldn't say it's really depressing, while some of the characters definately go through the emotional wringer and it does deal with some dark subject matter, if anything it's a show with quite positive messages about overcoming dark thinking. As someone who suffers from depression I found it quite cathartic. One of my favourites for sure and as you can probably tell from my current avatar, I also love Kino's Journey (and Girls' Last Tour as well).
It's also worth mentioning that the DVD is as good as it will probably ever look, preferable to the upscaled Blu-ray in many ways. It was one of those shows produced in the SD digital era that will sadly never have a true HD transfer. Which is a real shame because the backgrounds are lovely.

I think it was initially announced at £24.99 but then AoL did their sale and NT worked out at £19.59, I remember checking at the time, so I assume AL decided to lower the EB.
I actually didn't realise AOL's sale reduced it that far. Either way, I saved some money that can go towards the
Given I already own the imported Japanese release, NT being reduced down to £20 took the sting off of buying it pretty much solely because of the nice matching boxes a bit! .... Only a bit, but still... I'm not stopping now!

I’m just confused as to why the book is smaller than the Nozomi one if it was the same length I probs would have got both even though it’s a terrible film

There's one Ghibli title that I want. There's one Ghibli title that is never on sale. One and the same.. one day I'll get Ocean Waves, probably at full whack!

If I wasn't holding fire until the AL/MVM sale I would consider some of these.
