Out of curiosity, I want to know: What are your top ten titles and, more importantly, how many of them do you own on DVD?
Due to me having hunted for some pretty profile images awhile back, I'm going to C&P my top ten part of my MAL profile.
-------
[1] Gankutsuou
I hunted for the whole series; way before the re-release. I got bits and pieces from everywhere--eBay (I got lucky!), DVDPacific, SecondSpin...
It cost a lot, but it was worth it!
[2] Death Note
I recently completed my R2 'singles' (five releases) after The Hut *FINALLY* became the first store to drop their prices. I wish I'd waited for the box set, with its nine thinpack cases and cheap price, though... :/
[3] Code Geass
I got the first two R1 sets together on eBay for £20, and I then paid around £20 for the final set new. I plan on re-watching the series when/if I get R2.
[4] Berserk
As soon as I saw PlayUSA selling the 'remastered' set for £18, my pre-order was in. A great deal for a wonderful anime!
[5] Macross Zero
I got REALLY lucky with Zero: some guy listed his five mint Japanese volumes on eBay, and I got them for £9. I was very happy since there's little chance it'll get released in English, though it is a bummer that there aren't any Engrish subs on the DVDs...
[6] Now and Then, Here and There
I won a sealed, full-sized (not the re-release) set on eBay for under £10 because the seller listed it wrong.
[7] Gungrave
The R1 thinpack was one of my first anime purchases. I over-paid - spending something like £50 - AND got stung for about £20 by customs. I was under the impression DVD Pacific marked down packages after they had done so previously, but...
[8] Welcome to the NHK
This is the only title in my top ten I'm yet to complete. I own volumes 1, 2 & 4, and I should soon own the third volume. I got the first volume for free and the others for $3.19 each.
[9] Rurouni Kenshin: Tsuiokuhen
One of my early anime purchases was the R2 'Samurai X' box set. All the Kenshin OVA releases are included.
[10] Claymore
I pre-ordered all three Manga R2 releases in order to support their then new double-disc releases.
(Long story short: I own 9/10 in full.)
...So, yeah, what about you?
