Well animated shonen is my curse, sigh. Blind buy for Jujutsu Kaisen, we'll see.

Actually blind buy for everything here. Hinamatsuri strikes me as absurd comedy which is one of my favorite genres, so I got it quickly.

Haibane Renmei comes after having watched Boogiepop and (half-watched...) Lain and is one of those early 00's series I've always wanted to check out.

Koyomimonogatari marks the end of my Gatari series hunting - can't believe I have it all and can finally get started. I have comments on my MAL from a friend all the way back in like 2012 or something where we discussed getting started on Bakemonogatari - oops. Bonus pic, family photo:

Another one to the Bruce Lee collection!

A great Collector's Edition! And a lucky pick up as I'm pretty sure it's sold out now!
 
June 2022 Haul Batch #1 - I had received a few things over the past couple of days and didn't have the time or motivation to make a post until today, so here we are.

Going to start off with a quick mention that I managed to get some more add-on rows for my bookshelf from IKEA. They were out of stock for a while but recently I made an order and arrived last weekend. I had to re-arrange my shelf rows so that the light novels are at the top while the smaller-sized manga are in the middle rows followed by the larger-sized manga at the bottom.

We have some more Idea Factory games with Neptunia ReVerse, a PlayStation 5 remake of a PlayStation 4 remaster of a PlayStation Vita remake of a PlayStation 3 game. ReVerse is basically the definitive version of the game with 4K resolution and 60FPS gameplay as well as an Arrange Mode for those who already finished previous versions and instead of 3 characters in a party its now 4. The trophies are also different but will take as long as the previous one.

Then we have Neptunia x Senran Kagura: Ninja Wars, though in this case I just have the standard edition PlayStation 4 game. There is a Day 1 Edition but Idea's store didn't have one and it was at a price-range that was doable to get.

Keeping the Asian Cinema collection going, the latest 88 Films release arrived with The Killer Meteors (風雨雙流星), a 1976 Hong Kong film directed by Lo Wei and the late Jimmy Wang Yu, and also starring Jackie Chan. Just like the other releases, the first print edition has a slipcase, poster and booklet.

I made a Blackwells order consisting of a whole bunch of Viz Media manga, though unfortunately they are being dispatched at different times. All of them have shipped but currently two volumes have appeared for the meantime. For now we have Fire Punch Volume 4 and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders Volume 6.

More video games have been ordered and these two have been on my radar for a while. The first to arrive was Trials of Mana, the remake of the previously Japan only Super Famicom game by Square Enix. I still have Secret of Mana to play but I felt it made sense to get the sequel in case prices go up.

Then we have Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch Remastered from Bandai Namco. While I do own the original PlayStation 3 version I actually did not get the chance to play that one, so I figured I may as well jump straight to the remaster.

Matt Reeves's The Batman on 4K Ultra HD also arrived yesterday. I really enjoyed this film back at the cinema so I immediately wanted to get the film on home video. The standard set also includes an additional Blu-ray disc for bonus features.

I'm not the kind of person to have regrets. Though not willing to bite the bullet with this pre-order back in the day, cause I found game Collector's Editions were increasing high in price. Though thinking back, Resident Evil was my childhood especially with RE2 leaving an massive impact on me (almost PTSD 😁). The Remake may not be perfect but I also like this new version. After getting RE3 + RE8 CEs I knew I had to find a way to grab RE2 CE by any means.

I got it finally, after waiting a long time and waiting for a price somewhat close to the original. I already stored the set safely away but forgotten to capture a photo hence why I posted the official one instead.

In conclusion, a Resident Evil enjoyer

Big thanks to @Oldmario for the Biohazard Revival Selection set 🔥 + ignore the double Ghost of Tsushima as it's the same one as the photo above

Usually purchase quite a bit at MCM London Comic Con. Though the booths were pretty lacking (for me) and many stuff could easily be bought online for much cheaper.

An additional update to this batch. Apparently shipping courier Evri aka Hermes, delivered two packages without telling us so JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders Volumes 4 & 7 have also arrived.
 
My Clannad season 1 set arrived from cdjapan today, I bought a second hand copy using their proxy service but when it arrived it was new and sealed. It seems to use the same transfer as the sentai edition but has an additional 2.0 stereo track which works better on my headphones. After story is ridiculously expensive even second hand so I might call it a day and keep the region free sentai for AS, there’s two new Japanese editions but they don’t seem to have English subs unlike the first editions.
Also Drive 4k arrived from Zavvi in a battered box but was mercifully unscathed.2ED75542-0B31-4448-B543-97461F29BF60.jpeg440339FE-F6BE-4942-9C66-388FB60C1BF2.jpeg878BE6BD-97CC-47ED-AD61-C739BD904EE4.jpeg13604495-E3F0-4581-87AE-7AB183EB7AC5.jpeg

June 2022 Haul Batch #2 - The remaining books from the Blackwells order are now here.


Efk8N0Gh.jpg

Arrived on Monday were three books, but going to focus on two of them. Fire Punch Volume 3 and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders Volume 5. The former as you know is from the author of Chainsaw Man, while the latter has been out of stock for a while. Just four volumes left for Fire Punch and three volumes left for Stardust Crusaders now.

Next we have the rest of Naoki Urasawa's Pluto series with Volumes 7 & 8. Volume 8 arrived on Monday with the previous batch, while Volume 7 came today. With Pluto now completed, that leaves me with many more VIZ SIGNATURE titles left to go.
