LE for Deamon x Machina, something I wanted the same time as Astral Chain

Bought 5 books from 'A Song of Ice and Fire' book series in a charity shop today. Cost me £1 total

 

[TiagoCosta]

Pre ordered AnoHana with the 20% off code.

 

[Buzzkillington]

Pre-ordered Tokyo Mirage Sessions on Switch.

 

[D1tchd1gger]

Both have been purchased for me. The T&Cs said if the price was more than ¥1000 from the listed price it wouldn't be purchased.

Shipped. Cost an extra ¥800.

Glasses Direct had a discount code going so I ended up getting a 2-for-1 on two different frames and it cost me £38, and that’s with the upgraded lenses.

At the last minute i had that "**** it" moment and ended up ordering Tanya and School Live from MVM sale. Maybe i slowly start getting back to anime collecting which i'been negletting for a long while in favor of movies and games. I haven't even been updating (or actually i can't find the text file containing my collection) for a while now so i wasn't exactly sure whether i already owned School Live. Part of me say that i did buy it but but part of me say that i didn't and because i couldn't see it anywhere i bought it. Checking what i own and don't own is hard because 90% is piled up in a closet.

 

[Stiivun]

Excellent motivation to clean out that closet, before getting duplicate items Either way School Live is a great pick-up

I feel strangely relieved seeing there are more specimens sharing some of my purchase behavior (and pile) patterns.

Randomly spotted in Sainsbury's

Not sure they're actually made in Japan, but rather made/packaged over here from the original Japanese process.

Not sure about the panda biscuits but the “ramune” I’d certainly think so. Only Japan would label lemonade like that for historical/cultural reasons. Anyone else just says lemonade

They're definitely Japanese (I've had the panda things before from the specialist shop who buy stuff in Japan and bring them back), what I'm saying is they aren't the versions actually sold in Japan. The labels are mainly in English.

It's not unusual to have a seperate part in the production for export purposes. A lot of Chinese (or Asian) products you find in Asia Shops are like that.

Bitter jokes I sometimes hear are that the quality of such products usually is the inferior batch of a crop/production. (Because all those foreigners don't know the diffrence anyway and exiles are so hungry for the thing in the first place, they take what they can even get in the first place.)
