At least the tat is boxed away in it's case.

Hnnnng that looks so nice. I got some Sentai stuff in my locker at Stackry waiting for more Sentai stuff to be delivered to my locker, and now I want to add that as well. This slope is too slippery.

It's crazy that Amazon still don't package items properly. Couple of years ago I ordered three Ghibli steelbooks, two of which they refunded as they arrived battered. You'd think they just use a sodding BOX with some PADDING and save themselves a lot of money in the long run.

I got my copy from All Your Music; they used a box small enough to prevent too much movement and a small amount of packing paper. Better choice for LEs/CEs going forward perhaps.
 
So was To the Abandoned Sacred Beasts actually good? I've only had the chance to watch the first two episodes so far, and it seemed sort of meh to me up to that point, so I'm not sure if it would warrant me getting the CE for the series unless it gets really good later on... We are getting the same set here in the US as well. Need someone to coerce me, lol... :)

Another batch of items, this time both arriving yesterday.

First up we have Mobile Fighter G Gundam Part 1 from Anime Limited. This is the last of the big well-known shows of that era, but there's still a whole bunch of Gundam that they need to chase up, including the UC titles pre-2000s.

Much like Gundam Wing, Gundam 00 and Gundam SEED, these are using the Nozomi discs and artwork. My unboxing on this set has been postponed in favour of waiting for Part 2 which is expected to be released before Christmas.

Next we have To the Abandoned Sacred Beasts collector's edition Blu-ray from Anime Limited, on behalf of Crunchyroll. I was entertained by this series so it was nice to see a home video release. Much like Jujutsu Kaisen, the VDMS discs are also using the Crunchyroll font for the subtitles which is neat to see and there's a fair amount of extras on-disc.

You can view more photos & specs on my blog.
