I have the JP BD box (and need no subs), but I've always be just a little bit morbidly curious about that Singaporian English dub that's supposed to be on this release.

Thanks for the info.
Yes, that's correct, I am only looking for the Collector's Edition vol 8.

So I bought the German release of vol 10 of Moriarty the Patriot just because I wanted the art box that came with it. The German manga volume is slightly taller and wider than the Viz release
(Viz copy on top for comparison)
What I didn't know is that it also comes with a nice notepad

Lol, maybe it's a bootleg? I certainly hope not. It doesn't look like it. Once I open it up I'll have to check the discs with DVD Info.
Well, when watching any anime myself I would never listen to the dub anyway, as I'm a sub purist. The English dub would only be useful to me if I want to show the anime to any of my friends. And with this series, it's an absolute must to watch it in Japanese, just to hear the VA for Nodame. The way she makes the MC's grunts and groans and other exclamations are priceless, and they make the whole series.

Have to say the German release so much nicer than the Viz release. The outer cover is nice and sturdy, pages are nice but the icing on the cake is that it has the colour insert at the beginning. How I wish I could read German.

This was a double dip for me as I had the manga Collectors Edition but got this on the off chance the Anime Limited would end up doing the rest of the Rebuilds. Even though the contents of both sets are near identical with regards to the booklet, the Anime Limited version just feels and looks so much nicer especially with the minimalist Japanese like packaging design.

D'OH! I clearly unregistered that bit from your post during my online search in vain for a similar copy heh.Uhhm...
Lol, just giving you a hard time...
Yeah I got complacent after getting the Manga release! Would definitely have double-dipped as well, had I known about this release, for the same reason of the lovely packaging and also the art cards which looked really nice in the AL unboxing photos.

Finally got to unpack my deliveries and that Anemone set is really nice, so much more so than the import I was about to order at a relatively similar price to AL's pre-order. So thank you very much @NormanicGrav for the heads-up to be patient for the UK releases of both Anemone & Owarimonogatari part 3 - much appreciated.Three packages today.
The first is Makoto Shinkai's Your Name now on 4K Ultra HD format. Mine arrived after everyone else's which was unexpected, but either way ZENZENZEN is here and it looks nice on the TV. You can view more photo/specs on my blog.
Next we have Anemone: Eureka Seven Hi-Evolution. The US release went OOP so we have a UK version. Pretty nice packaging and storyboard book to go with it. You can view more photo/specs on my blog.
And finally we have A Guide to Japanese Role-Playing Games by Bitmap Books. A hardback 600+ page book dedicated to going over tons of games from Japan, covering Dragon Quest, Final Fantasy, Pokemon, Shin Megami Tensei all the way to the critically-acclaimed fan favourite Rance. And also Record of Lodoss War because you need more elves in your life.
And the shiny, reflective artwork on the Your Name box is really nice as well, complements the visuals of the anime rather nicely methinks.
Bungo Stray Dogs Seasons 1 & 2 collection arrived today from Zavvi. A Manga Entertainment (now Funimation UK) release and it took this long to finally go on offer (and it's funny considering the Movie & Season 3 went on offer first).
Also arrived was Prison School Omnibus Volume 3 from Blackwells, which arrived pretty fast though unfortunately there is a slight rip on the bottom part of the front cover but it hasn't affected the main content. Omnibus Volume 4 is on its way and may arrive early next week if its in the same pace as this package. Omnibus Volume 6 also been ordered at the same time, but will take at least two more weeks before it can arrive. Meanwhile, it seems Omnibus Volume 5 is slowly coming back so I can hopefully get that ordered in the next week or so.

Since I'm still awaiting my copy I decided to do just that. Um, I'm afraid I can't say I'm a huge fan of the (new?) formatting of your blog, Grav, unless there's something wrong on my end. I'm not sure "skinny" is the right word for that column width (especially once you scroll beyond the sidebar...) it looks like it needs help for anorexia.
The current layout of my blog has been in place for over a year and unfortunately the width is beyond my control across all versions available to me at the moment. I do get what you mean though as if I had the opportunity I would tweak the width if I could.

I didn’t think it had been that long since I visited but perhaps it has... I just thought I’d say something in case something had gone awry with it. Yours is far from the only website not suited to widescreen monitors in this modern world of mobile formatting though... You’d think at least they’d have a sensible option to pick for people viewing on desktop. Ah well. I still like your pics, as always.
Thanks! I do appreciate the feedback whenever possible. Yours is actually the first in which resolution is a big concern for the blog. I think the only fix to this is by me actually acquiring a Premium Plan so that I have more customisable options available for the layout (which I will eventually have to acquire as I've almost reached the max storage space for the photos - the photos are shot in 4K but had to be downsized due to the filesize on the blog lol).

I realise I may be an atypical user in having a 4k monitor, the first thing I tried was scaling up the page but that just moves the enlarged content over to the left in the white area and the grey half of the screen remains the same size. I feel like all websites that use fixed-width columns should really have them centralised these days, who the Hell wants everything shoved over on one half of their monitor?
