I didn't even realize a deck of cards came with the Kakegurui order - can't wait to get mine, it's on it's way!

Did the UK set get the Netflix Dub, or the new Sentai Dub?
Sentai dub. Netflix are charging a lot of money for their dubs, obviously more than it costs to create an entirely new dub. Netflix are cooking the books to appear that they haven't recouped the dubbing cost on paper so they retain ownership and are then probably trying to charge the full cost of the dub, which is much higher than normal for Sentai as Netflix use Union actors.
 
Had plenty of orders this week, well over my monthly budget for January...oops.

One Punch Man - Kaze. I have seen thisso many times that I thought I should own it. Never watched the OVAs looking forward to these. Book is pretty awesome!
Bungo Stray Dogs (S1, 2 & OVA) and Fairy Gone Parts 1 and 2 are blind buys because they were cheap.
A Certain Magical Index 2 and A Certain Scientifc Railgun S were around £10 a pop on ebay and i'd been thinking about finally watching them (only seen Index S1)

Invasion USA - 88 Films. Chuck Norris taking on allcomers as they try to invade america over the holidays.
The Flying Guillotine - 88 Films. OOP Shaw Bros film. Watched and enjoyed Dragon Missile last week and this is its precursor, Looking forward to the insane action.

Almost giving into insanity, finally after the long wait we have finally got this high stakes gem. Shame they didn't release an Ultimate Edition rather than Blood-C (which I believe doesn't really deserve that treatment but oh well)

I'd love to know what image is used on the back of the playing cards themselves - one of the images on the pack, or something different? Has anyone actually opened their cards?
 
I receved two anime shipments in the mail today, one title from AlltheAnime and three from Rightstuf:

El-Hazard -The Magnificent World- OVAs 1+2 Collector's Edition

Project A-ko
Girly Airforce
Tower of God Season 1

Wow you got El-Hazard before me while my tracking still hasn’t changed from the 10th and hasn’t got a reply to my contact form on ALs site (@anime_andrew)

Yes, so sorry, but this had to be just a fluke! 4 days from ship-date-to-delivery here in USA from the UK is insanely fast for Royal Mail/USPS - heck it even takes 6 days on average ship-date-to-delivery for me to get packages via USPS from Rightstuf, just going from Iowa to Pennsylvania!

Birthday haul post as I recently turned 33 so I'm now almost a third of a century in age! 🤯 Got Anohana for the dub (I already have the NIS America collector's release), some manga and a graphic novel from Waterstones, finally picked up Gurren Lagann (was reluctant to purchase due to the short sections that are upscaled video from the Bandai Anime Legends DVD release but ultimately relented), a cute plate and fancy bowl from Bert's Homestores, and a gorgeous scarf in pastels from the Irregular Choice Sanrio range (yes they do clothes as well as shoes now!) More to follow in the next post as I can only attach ten images per post :)

It’s so big and heavy!

It’s like the anime boxset equivalent of one of those really big dildos that’s designed for people who, upon seeing one, giggle and say “ooh I like a challenge!” XD Dildo, or bollard? Anime Blu-ray set, or novelty training weight?
🤣
