Buyer's Guide to Anime/Manga/Etc. (plus SALES updates)

Woah, Impressive page...

Hmm... I wonder, can I ask for a small recomendation?

I have been looking for some figures for my room, actually only 2:
- KOSMOS (Xenosaga I or III), however I haven't been able to find one in this stores (I have seen screens of gourgeous figures, so I know it exists)

- Another one that just looks cool. - Originally I wanted one from Dizzy (Guilty Gear Series), but I gave up in finding one decent enough.

Heh... I know this is a buyer's guide... but maybe you have seen something like that in your buying aventures!

I don't buy figurines. But whatever floats ya boat right? ^^;

1/8 KOS-MOS Ver. 4 PVC

1/8 Xenosaga III KOS-MOS Ver 4

There are other retailers that specialize in imported goods (and yes, you usually will have to import figurines), but HLJ is a decent place to start any search.

Reviving thread for those who aren't aware.

Day 9 - Irresponsible Captain Tylor OVA Ultimate Edition $24.99

I never saw the series or the OVA. If it was the TV edition then yeah I'd get it. It took more than 2 hours for Rightstuff to post that sale. They must be fucking retarded. Watching a sequel while not noticing that there was a tv series before it. Although I did watch RM:traumend before the first season >.>;

Day 10 - December 12th: Burst Angel DVD Box Set (Hyb): $39.99

Yeah, I guess RS is just trying to get rid of some undesirable stock.

$24.99 for Tylor OVA Ultimate Edition? I hope some of you slackers took up that most excellent deal.

Day 11 - December 13th: Boys Over Flowers DVD Bargain Bundle (1-12) (Hyb): $89.99
Day 12 - December 14th: Scrapped Princess DVD Complete Collection (Hyb) (Anime Legends): $23.99

Too bad the Scrapped Princess set is the Anime Legends one (not the usual DVDs + box), or that'd be amazing. Oh well.

I guess out of the whole list, I'll be grabbing the BigO season 1,2, and Kiminozo. I never heard of Scrapped Princess only because too many idiots compared it to FMA.

I liked Scrapped Princess (but not enough to buy it, even at that price). It's a pretty decent sci-fi ish/medieval fantasy series.

I think this concludes their sale.

It would've been much better if they included the 2nd boxset of GTO >.<! Anything you'd recommend ?

GTO is really the only title that caught my eye in that last batch. $20 for an introduction to a great series is probably a very cheap price to pay.

I haven't seen many of those series, though, so it's hard for me to really comment on them. Too bad RS wasn't feeling very jolly with dropping deals on big name titles from the big companies.

Heh..Due to the semester bill, I have about 80 bucks left til the next time I get paid. GTO's the way to go I guess. Besides, I'm tired of having the customed (yet medicore quality)version. Any difference in the funimation version? Did theyget more actors other than David Lucas doing 15 characters at a time ? ;p


Kiminozo - Forget it =/ . Too dramatic but it's an anime I saw just once which was more than enough. The OVA should be out soon anyway ;p.

BigO - samething =/ . It's one of those animes that don't make you want to see it again after the second time. The music is the best part.

As for the other animes, Flame of Recca wasn't so bad but it looked more like a cut copy and paste storyline of Yu Yu Hakusho mix with nudity and more blood.

If you feel like a little experimenting, then I'd also recommend Scrapped Princess since you said you never heard of it (due to FMA idiots). A 24 episode series for that price isn't shabby at all.

But if it's down to a choice between that and GTO, I'd go with GTO since I find that series to be much more meaningful.

Luckily, I found that Amazon has their fair share of sales themselves. 50 bucks for GTO Semester 1 and 2. since I'm left with 35 bucks + 125 bucks more from what my friend owed, I'll be set to buy Scrapped Princess.

As for The Irresponsible Captain Tylor OVA, I'll get that plus the TV series (*sighs* 89.99.....). This shit better be good cause other than Ace, other people in my class have major hard-ons for this show. Time to see what's all the commotion with this story. Finding a good mech-animes are hard to come by ( and dont tell me ttgl u.u; ).

EDIT : Tylor TV series bought at a price of 70.92 at some other online store. Same with Tylor OVA at TRS. Yeah. That's enough anime til the next 4-5 months..

Those damn TRS people added another bundle of dvd's after the ones you posted :

Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya DVD 1 Special Limited Edition only $31.99 (50% OFF)
Fullmetal Alchemist DVD Box Set 1 (1-4) only $24.99 (50% OFF)
Robotech: The Shadow Chronicles Special Edition DVD only $19.99 (50% OFF)
Petite Princess Yucie DVD Box Set (Thinpak) only $22.99 (61% OFF)
To Heart DVD Bundle (1-4)only $39.99 (49% OFF)
Twelve Kingdoms DVD Economy Set 1 only $24.98 (49% OFF)
Twelve Kingdoms DVD Economy Set 2 only $24.98 (49% OFF)


I still have 40 bucks left and another check i got outta the semester (Which is going straight to the next semester =/ ). Recommendations please? Other than Twelve Kingdoms,haruhi and FMA that is. Petite looks kinda cute from lookin at that boxset. Is it a fantasy genre with fighting,etc? Or is it not what I believe it to be?

Since nobody else has done so, and since it ends Sunday, I feel obliged to inform everyone about RightStuf's New Year's Clearence. Twenty percent of everything in stock is definately worth a look.
