What did you RECEIVE today? PHOTOS EDITION!

Everything I purchased from the AL Christmas sale is finally here! These have been arriving over the past few days but I figured it would be easier to post them all at once.

  • Nadia: Secret of the Blue Water Ultimate Edition (with seperately enclosed replacement BD disc 2)
  • Cardcaptor Sakura Standard Edition Parts 1 & 2
  • Revolutionary Girl Utena Complete Limited Edition
  • Great Pretender Deluxe Edition

Kamen Rider Zero One also arrived the other day from Zavvi's 70% off US Imports sale. BIG thanks to @awadama for spreading the word about it, couldn't be happier to finally have a physical Kamer Rider release! (Now if only some publisher could get the rights to Shin Kamen Rider too.)

Remo Williams was part of my Zavvi 70% off sale purchases. From 10 days ago. The anime IWGP is still to be sent.
I'm thinking they're regretting the price so will soon tell me it's unavailable. It was £15 and then 70% off.

This years Christmas cards. I'll add some suitable stickers.

I feel like this will be a same or similar kind of funny as the covering of friends and family's faces in dating app profiles - which emojis will u be using? XD Also which character from which anime is that? I like how you have anime themed Xmas cards, when I do send shop-bought ones it's just the usual warm festive houses and wintry animals and whatnot :)

...I kind of wanna get out my sticker stash and make some cute homemade cards for people now 😅 I am completely overwhelmed by trip prep for visiting my mum though, packing is hard even with a list, partly cuz I find it rly difficult picking which clothes to take 🤣
 
She's the main character from Manyuu Hikenchou (Magic Breast Secret Sword Scroll). As you will be able to imagine, it's fanservice heavy.
I got some stickers from Home Bargains.
Santa, snowmen, Merry Christmas and reindeer etc.

It does look a bit fanservicey ye - stickers are also fun! There's a Homesense in my city but I try not to buy much Xmassy tat I'll just end up throwing out, I did get some nice cards from a charity shop the other year with my mum for her to send out to relatives (I am generally very attentive to my young nephew's birthdays and Xmasses though, I make or buy them cards and presents, still well chuffed about how much they love the polymer clay owls I made for them this year!) :)

BTW, I got the cards from Redbubble.
Plenty of Anime related stuff.
I don't know how much is on a card. I found this one because the same seller had Vice President Meiko from Prison School on some stuff. I was looking for her.
 
I received two more pre-order titles from Crunchyroll US today:

Frieren: Beyond Journey's End Part 1
Vermiel in Gold Collector's Edition Steelbook

Frieren has an iridescent finish on the slipcover, and Vermiel is a double-dip on Sentai's standard release for me, because steelbook! 🥳
I'll re-purchase any of Sentai's titles I already own if they re-release them in Steelbook format - so keep 'em coming!

Hard agree, this is the first thing I look for in the release schedule. I’m not familiar with their last two releases though so I haven’t pulled the trigger yet.
 
I really gotta learn to wait a bit before making these posts because not even 20 minutes after making the last one another import from Japan arrived on my doorstep. (This really should be the last parcel today though I believe.)

But yeah just a couple CDs this time:
  • Pokémon feat. Hatsune Miku - Project VOLTAGE 18 Types/Songs Collection
  • Hoshimiya Toto x SOZEN OTSUBO - Beyond the Binary
  • Hoshimiya Toto - IF
