October Haul #2
Next, we have another collection of films from Japan thanks to Terracotta shipping stock out early.
From Third Window Films we have
Nobuhiko Obayashi's 80s Kadokawa Years limited edition Blu-ray box set, which includes 4 of his films released between 1981-1986.
School in the Crosshairs (ねらわれた学園) (this one is based on a novel that was also adapted into an anime as Psychic School Wars),
The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (時をかける少女) (this one is based on a novel that was also adapted into an anime by Mamoru Hosoda),
The Island Closest to Heaven (天国にいちばん近い島), and
His Motorbike, Her Island (彼のオートバイ、彼女の島). You can view more photos and specs
on my blog.
NEO: The World Ends With You, went for a pretty solid price-point so I picked it up. This is the sequel to the Nintendo DS cult-hit that Square Enix & Tetsuya Nomura made many years ago, but I heard this one can be played without too much prior knowledge of the original game.
More Discotek Media anime arrived, and these are the out-of-print rarities
Goshogun and
Goshogun: The Time Etranger on Blu-ray. I did not get these from Rightstuf or United Publications but via other methods to secure any last remaining stock. Fortunately, the price was the same as if I was ordering them directly from Rightstuf, and the condition was brand new with no sign of damage which is nuts.
