Thankfully I have the vast majority of the games I really want. My backlog across generations is so large, I have now the best reason to finally play everything I own, or as much as I can at least. Some cartoons and anime will eventually be harder and harder to get I imagine, sadly.
I know there's a long way to go, but I feel like these are a solid selection to grow it as I hopefully may stumble into great deals later on or may just get some titles as imports when they go on sale since the price can be so ridiculously expensive. Similar reason as to why for now I am settling with Gundam Wing on DVD and the first part on Blu-ray.

I love anime and soccer so both are a welcome mix.
Several older and classic anime titles for the collection finally arrived!
It looks as if I only ordered the standard edition but that's not true! Has this happened to anyone else who pre ordered? I don't know what the hail is going on! π‘π
Wanted to share with fellow fans these pick ups. I watched the original Captain Tsubasa also known as Super Campeones in South America when I was a kid living in Colombia. It was one of the first anime I watched along with other ones like Saint Seiya (Caballeros del Zodiaco) , Heidi Girl of the Alps, Dragon Ball, etc. Finally in this World Cup I got nostalgic and inspired to pick these up! What do you think?
Beyblade is an iconic franchise of my childhood so now it's in the collection. I don't think these will get reprints in the foreseeable future but I could be wrong. My full anime collection update is coming soon after a few more hauls!
The first one on the top left is a fan-made/bootleg because it doesn't have an official physical release for Region 1/A. Only the remake/reboot is widely available even in the states and Europe at the moment.
Perfect Blue and The Escaflowne Movie I've been meaning to get for a long while now.
These are just some of the recent hauls. I've been picking up anime more than anything.
I honestly haven't seen the films yet but want to complete the content for Neon Genesis Evangelion and watch them at some point of course. Gotta find out what I'm missing.
A couple of these I got days ago but had not shown in the hauls yet, keeping them somewhat themed.
Horus the Prince of the Sun and Battle Angel were harder and more pricey than expected. I still need to get the live action Alita Battle Angel to go with it.
Is there a name or category for these type of movies? Anime Fantasy, Romance or both? π§
Cyborg 009 and Monster Rancher I had my eye on for a while, not as long as I did for Akito the Exiled, but still... I don't think these will be easier to get in the foreseeable future, besides the 009 movies and maybe Darkstalkers
I wish the Primal Season 2 came with a slipcover, but that's how it goes. Can't win them all
The Heidi Girl of the Alps is a "fan-made edition" (bootleg) since there's no official North American release that I am aware of.
Just sharing some of my pick ups. What do you think?
It also helps me appreciate how much anime has evolved.
