What did you RECEIVE today? PHOTOS EDITION!

I have really cut back on how much I buy recently, IIRC the only two things I have purchased apart from food, sugar-free soft drinks, toiletries, household items like bin bags etc. and my daily morning coffee since I last started a new 4-week financial cycle are this lovely pink magical bathrobe and the Nausicaa hardcover manga boxset from Temu, I paid for them partly with refunded store credit from the previous bathrobe which I rly wasn't happy with with the strawberry pattern, that mushroom hoodie with poor print quality, and the pastel pink floral shoes from previous orders, I really am very happy with the new bathrobe it's absolutely adorable, warm, cosy and well stitched (I've been wanting a new dressing gown for years cuz I never really liked my old one), and the Nausicaa manga is gorgeous I am rly looking forward to reading it! :)

Apart from that, my The Colours Within CE arrived and it's so beautiful, haven't opened yet but really looking forward to watching the film soon, and I got my New X-Men comics complete set - it turns out that the contents of Volume 8 from a different edition that I purchased on it's own, are all included in Volume 7 of this set, but ah well, at least it is a complete set that I have now! I also got my DevilInspired order, the choker doesn't fit (too smol) and the hoodie's print isn't properly aligned at the front along the centre where the zip is so the face looks weird, but the dress is utterly amazing and looks gorgeous on me, choker and hoodie are going to charity and I'm def keeping the dress :)

I received one hentai Blu-ray from Media Blasters yesterday. It includes a reversible cover with slightly more explicit images on it, but no nudity. The original cover should be tame enough for here, but I'll spoiler it anyway...

2025 HAUL - SEPTEMBER v1.1

A lot has been going on over on my end, mainly work being a bit hectic, my daily exercises take up the pre & post work time, and also sorting out a few backlog like adding six Hong Kong films to my blog and watching a bunch of anime. But I did receive a bunch of packages which is going to have to be split up due to limitations with the image uploads.

Here's a few posts back-to-back going over what's arrived and picked up.

#01: Discotek Haul
The last time I bought a whole bunch of Discotek Media Blu-rays from the Crunchyroll Store was around the early Spring time, since the previous batch was primarily exclusive to MediaOCD due to Urotsukidoji (which funny enough is in the next batch later this month). The haul this time features titles that have been constantly out of stock here and there so it did take a while before I could finally order them. We also have more Lupin the Third though sadly I was unable to secure Lupin the Third: Swallowtail Tattoo which is currently no longer available (but not listed as out of print on Discotek's website) at this current point. While it could have arrived in time for the August haul, it eventually arrived at the start of this month.

Lupin the Third Part I & Part III
Based on Monkey Punch's manga series, here we have two television shows for Lupin the Third with the 23 episode 1971 series and the 50 episode 1984 series, both animated by TMS Entertainment. This franchise was one of the first that I checked out during the start of my anime watch journey but I hadn't watched the pre-2000s shows which thankfully Discotek have released on Blu-ray since Crunchyroll's streams were US & Canada only. Part I includes a new English dub from the Epcar Entertainment crew. Discotek Media released Lupin the Third Part I on Blu-ray in May 2022 and Lupin the Third Part III on Blu-ray in August 2021.

Lupin the Third: Angel Tactics & Seven Days Rhapsody
Since the classic three-part series, the Lupin franchise received dozens of television specials and here we have the 17th TV Special Angel Tactics aired in 2005 and the 18th TV Special Seven Days Rhapsody aired in 2006. Both are subtitled only. Discotek Media released Lupin the Third: Angel Tactics on Blu-ray in June 2023 and Lupin the Third: Seven Days Rhapsody on Blu-ray in December 2023.

Discotek - Cromartie High School 01.jpg

Cromartie High School
2003 television anime series by studio Production I.G and director Hiroaki Sakurai, based on the manga written by Eiji Nonaka. I've heard about this series early on in my anime watching venture but it was primarily unavailable due to licensing until Discotek picked it up, though I never bothered to grab their DVD. Now it's on Blu-ray and features the English dub as well from the ADV release. I presume there's an on-going joke with the references to Queen throughout. Discotek Media released the series on Blu-ray in August 2023.

Discotek - Lady Georgie 01.jpg

Lady Georgie
1983 television anime series by studio TMS Entertainment and director Shigetsuga Yoshida, based on the manga Georgie! written by Mann Izawa. Never heard of this shoujo classic prior to Discotek's announcement and I figured it was worth picking up especially considering we don't get much shoujo shows from this era these days. The main character is also Australian so the subtitles reflect this from what I read. Discotek Media released the series on SD-BD format in December 2023.

Discotek - Tetsujin 28 FX 01.jpg

Tetsujin 28 FX
1992 television anime series by studio TMS Entertainment and director Tetsuo Imazawa, based on the manga written by Mitsuteru Yokoyama. In case you aren't familiar with Tetsujin 28, it's one of the first giant robo titles out there and the author eventually made Getter Robo, but the anime has a few instalments and with this one it's a continuation from the events of the first series from 1963 though I believe you can hop on if you only watched the 80s version. Discotek Media released the series on SD-BD format in January 2023.

Discotek - Virtua Fighter 01.jpg

Virtua Fighter
1995 television anime series by studio TMS Entertainment and director Hideki Tonokatsu, based on the SEGA video game fighting franchise of the same name. Discotek's released a lot of video game anime and cartoons and Virtua Fighter is the next anime on my list to pick up since I already own Darkstalkers, Fatal Fury and Street Fighter II. Interested to see how it holds up since it'll be following characters from the first two games. The Media Blasters English dub that was produced for 24 of 35 episodes are included with this release. Discotek Media released the series on SD-BD format in January 2023.
