Recent pickup that I got lucky with getting at retail price

I bought this dvd for 2 bucks and I have no idea what it is. I did some research and apparently it's from the Monogatari series (I thought it was something totally separate from that show). I read somewhere that it's a spin-off story, but also that it's part of season 2? So they just took a couple of episodes from season 2 and put it onto a separate release? Is it worth watching on its own?

The Monogatari series already had me confused at times, but this is just... I hope there's a fan somewhere here who can explain about the what and why with this release.

All of these are thrifted so if there is some missing, thats is why

I don’t really cruse that much but excuse me for today as I tell you my experience.

So on Friday, I ordered some anime from AllTheAnime. I was holding off from buying these mainly because of the high shipping cost, £25. But I ordered it at 9:00 am. I was still at my work. As I clocked out at work at 11:00 am I got a notification that shit was shipped. The fuck? Usually it takes another companies two days to before they remembered that my order exist but they got my order out in 2 hours. 2 hours?

I saw that they were shipping my package using the British royal mail service. They may as well called it the royal shipping because shit came to the the US on Sunday. Fucking Sunday! For context it usually takes Rarewares and Playasia over a week to ship to the US but AllTheAnime got it shipped in 2 days. Did they ship it on the fucking royal speed boat or did I get a private royal jet to fly my one package. Calm down let the driver sleep.

Then they handled it to USPS. That shitty delivery service. Usually takes him two days to even be bothered to look at my package but some how AllTheAnime cast the royal spell on them and they started coming down to North Carolina arrived on Monday night. This the fastest USPS has ever been. I usually buy stuff from USPS and it usually takes fucking 3 days to come down here. It feels like fucking forever but they somehow locked in and brought it down.

The next day, I was notified that it was out for delivery. I’m surprised it didn’t stay in USPS terminal for another extra day just because. They tend to do that for some reason. So I got in the mail at 2:00 pm. I came home, opened it and they came well packaged. Honestly I’m shocked on how good the delivery was. For context, my Amazon delivery. I ordered the same day as yet to even arrive, and it lives in the same country. The fucking same country. Maybe I do need prime.

After opening all the blu-ray and putting them in my region free blu-ray player. I have to have to say. AllTheAnime blu-ray are really high quality even for average anime and the box are very well done.

Honestly, I’m very impressed with the shipping and the quality of the Blu-rays. £25 well spent. You can see all the stuff I ordered in the images.

Got full metal alchemist brotherhood on the way. Been trying to collect physical media last couple years do to all the physical media being removed and talked about. Still more i wanna get of the 90s and early to mid 2000s anime I loved as a kid.

Could never find an Australian release for these and Crunchy had them listed as "exclusive" on their US store, so Japan it was.

Even has English subtitles.

This was probably the biggest (and most expensive!) haul I've had ever since I started collecting. With all the recent bad news in the hobby I said f*** it and just ordered some of the things I had on my wishlist because otherwise they're probably gonna disappear rather sooner than later.

The steelbooks are just absolutely gorgeous! I'm currently rewatching Ergo Proxy and it was definitely worth the money. Such an amazing show! If steelbooks weren't so expensive I'd definitely order more of them and display them separately.

I also finally caught up on the Black Lagoon OVA as well. Sadly I only had the 2 first seasons before and I really wanted to continue with the story. Maybe all the discourse around the show during the last couple of weeks brings us a new season eventually (I'm coping very hard)

The Angel Beats volumes were actually ordered from different sellers. That's the first time I've 'hunted' for a series and aquiring it's parts from different sources. Thankfully all the discs run fine but I'm a bit sad it's only DVD quality. The blu rays are just too expensive.

I think in my opinion, since CR Bought RightStuff, the whole endeavor had its fair share of problems, but at least it was open to everyone. Anyone could log in, make an account and buy anime but what the fuck is this shit man? I'd rather Sony just put a giant, "YOU WILL OWN NOTHING AND YOU'LL LOVE IT" banner on the front page and call it even. The whole layout and design (imo) is on purpose to make you barf and log out as soon as possible.

A lot of people say that there's a green tint but I never noticed any tint on my copy

I plan on getting 02 in Japanese as well but Amazon is currently sold out waiting for them to hopefully restock soon

In a bookcase, pics rotated for your convenience. I also have anime on DVD and VHS that I'll show off later!

Well the paywall is up and now it's time to avoid buying from Crunchyroll as much as possible. It's a shame that Aniplex stuff is locked away. Love the double Sony tax for Aniplex stuff lol.

IT FINALLY CAME IN #Aniplex #CrunchyRoll #CyberpunkEdgerunners
