Practically stole some of them, Champloo is going for 30-50$ in some places.

Lucky, lucky, lucky!![]()
I keep finding cheap anime dvds in the charity shops I go in, but never collections or complete sets.
Way back this year, I snagged the 7th Vol of Stand Alone Complex: Series One, buuut, it always frustrated me that episodes were released 3 at a time in individual volumes.
I'd have to had bought the previous six releases to actually watch it in full and from the start. Thank gawd for 9anime.
I have the first four eps of Samurai Champloo, will choose watch one a day, then continue the season online. Our tastes seem to sync up Steeldancer!
The Chapter Black arc of Yu Yu is a great comedown storyline after the whirlwind of the Dark Tornament. I won't spoil it incase you haven't seen it, but finally, Koenma the Great removes his pacifier (the real thrill we were all waiting for.)
What do you think of Yu Yu, do you have any history with the manga or show? I'd be interested to hear from ya on it.
En-vi-ous of your choices to say the least.

Just snagged the complete Samurai Champloo!
Seven discs, the complete bloody series. And for 3 quid, which (to be frank) is astounding. A steal/bargain etc...![]()
Oh and N.W.A - Straight Outta Compton thrown in for 50p as well. I'm having a field day over here!

Some truly 'hipster' choices among those. Let me get me baggy jeans on.

Pure Phase is Spiritualized's best album, in my opinion.

It's a hard choice!
(But I also don't believe that Spiritualized has released any dud albums so far.)

Just saw them last night since their first stop was in my city. I can't say what they're like without Fletcher since this is the first time I've seen them live, but Gahan still displayed his usual rockstar frontmanship. There wasn't much in the way of tribute to Fletcher though, but World In My Eyes was dedicated to him with visuals of him in the background. They played something from just about every era of the band but sadly nothing from the Exciter album (their most overlooked album), I would have loved to hear "I Feel Loved" live, which is an all time favorite DM song of mine.Orbited insanitarium wrote:rodox_head wrote:My ticket to see Depeche Mode in March.

(I don't know the US tour dates but according to their website it kicked off 23rd so maybe not as yet.)
