Today's arrival is ARIFURETA: From Commonplace to World's Strongest Novel 6 from publisher Seven Seas. I ordered this not long after the last batch and that's mainly because this particular volume was out of print for sometime last year and while it's back in print it could go out of stock again so I decided it was best to get it out of the way now to save myself the hassle.
My pamphlet was actually not bent like the others shown so far.
The logo on the side of the box is not quite central though, anyone else have the side logo off to the side a bit? you can see in my pic the logo is almost around the corner on the right side, but on the left there is a gap to the edge.

I hope you'll enjoy Gridman, dude; I certainly rate it highly anyway, speaking as a fan of Trigger.
That front cover of your CE is very nice, by the way. I prefer it to the image on the front of the standard edition that I've got; it's nice, but it doesn't really convey what the show's about.
To add a little bit of extra detail about this, that Re:ZERO set is the original CE, released in two parts some time before the new one. Part 1 had discs that had underwhelming video quality. They were reauthored, and those discs are the ones included in the new CE. A limited number of copies of part 2 (1,000 units) came with an outer box to house both parts.
This old blog article on AL's site has more pictures:
The film was co-produced by Wild Bunch and Studio Ghibli ... According to Vincent Maraval, head of Wild Bunch, he visited Studio Ghibli in Japan in 2008 and met with Hayao Miyazaki. Miyazaki showed him the short film Father and Daughter and asked him to find its director, Michaël Dudok de Wit, with the prospect of co-producing a feature film.
The article doesn't go into any further detail, but I saw the film back when it was released and read little bits about it. My recollection is that De Wit did the storyboarding, etc. and Ghibli did the actual animation.
But yeah, according to good old Wikipedia again in their article about Topcraft:
The studio went bankrupt and dissolved on June 15, 1985, essentially splitting the studio in half. Hayao Miyazaki, Toshio Suzuki and Isao Takahata bought the studio while laying off most of its animation staff, changing its name to Studio Ghibli.
"This storage box will come with all copies of the Part 2 Blu-ray Ltd. Collector’s Edition set. However, this storage box is exclusive to Zavvi.com and AllTheAnime.com – it’s a limited edition extra limited to 1000 units, so once it’s out-of-print and out-of-stock across both sites there won’t be any more."

The only Trigger one I didn't really like so far is FLCL but that is kind of oldschool, and has a different overall feel to their other work. I'm sure I will like it Gridman
