  1. Is KanColle any good storywise? Those kinds of anime haven't really appealed to me in the past.
  2. >> Titan still turns a modest profit on the comic because of all the corners they cut making it. Looks like they made some profit enough to hire Brenden Fletcher to write a story (who looks more legit than the other unknown RT comic writers to me). Sadly I don't think they're gonna stop doing the comics in the foreseeable future.
  3. I don't know how they keep on producing those comic books. Even comic books that seem to be popular (and I bet sell more) get cancelled all the time. How is this financially feasible for them?
  4. The final volume of LOGH light novel will release on November 19. Frankly I've only bought the first 2 novels in print. One reason I haven't continued is I haven't finished the 2nd novel yet, and I can't find it when I want to read it! I put it somewhere not readily accessible or visible to me. So if I finally buy the rest it'll probably be as ebooks on Kindle, so I won't forget where it is and I won't also have space problems. The 2nd reason is that it isn't as exciting as watching watching the original anime. I actually am more excited for the Crest of the Stars light novels. I've seen the anime, and I've also read the online translations before. I don't know why, but it reads better and I don't seem to tire of it (except for the Abh language parts). The first 2 volumes are out, will buy the 2nd one on Kindle soon.
  5. I don't think anyone has gone to jail. It's probably too hard to prove/prosecute, especially with the names involved. What do I know of the finance world anyways

    Macross Books

    Looks like the budget I reserved for this book will be going somewhere else this year.
  7. We keep getting Transformers movies, why not Matrix 4? Not really that excited for this, will wait for reviews before I watch. And that's if I find the time...
  8. Now the question is, does this need the PO purchase code? If it does, no problem, there's a Eureka 7 artbook coming out anyway. But if it doesn't....RIP wallet? (Assuming I can go through the hoops associated with a successful purchase of this expo book...)
  9. Guys who can read Japanese, is this another EXPO book? This seems to be a general release. Unfortunately Satelight doesn't ship to overseas locations https://www.satelight-store.com/products/detail.php?product_id=211
  10. I got my shipping notice. I was being impatient lol Lol didn't buy that 36-set. Got the 2 customs because I didn't want to regret not buying in a few months like what happened with the PBandai Leos.
  11. To those who ordered P-Bandai Maganacs (Rashid et al customs), have yours shipped? Curious since it's almost August in a few days.
  12. The Blade movies were good for their time, I wonder how they will make this interesting considering it will probably not be R-rated.
  13. I don't know anything about Shang-chi but I am excited for this. I want to be surprised like I was when I watched GOTG, when I knew zero about the Guardians.
  14. Eh but I want to take it with to save on shipping costs Rearranging the contents and flattening the box is a good idea, I'll keep this in mind. Ok, thanks for the info! I think it's the only big kit I really want to buy in Japan. (for now..) The last time I was in Japan my luggage was smaller--the stuff I bought wasn't that heavy but took up a lot of space. So I bought bigger check-in luggage and of course I'd look to fit in the biggest kit I can lol
  15. To anyone who got the new MG Alex, will it fit neatly into a 30kg suitcase? I'm thinking of buying in Japan if ever I get some funds for a trip next year. (Assuming it's still available of course.)
  16. For me it had interesting characters and mecha. I never thought about it too seriously because the feudal society + mechs was already fantastical to begin with. With brain turned off I enjoyed the show (but not saying it was that good). That said I have KG Sleipner kit that I bought 3 years ago and still haven't got to building it lol. Frankly I don't even know where to put it--my finished Scopedog is still also in the box. Damn these space problems T_T
  17. But this needs to be painted, right? I don't have the skills and the setup though. I haven't even top coated my gunpla yet ^_^;
  18. Recently finished Crest of the Stars vol 1. It was my first digital light novel purchase, thanks to J-Novel Club. It's a great complement for those who have seen the anime, though I'm not sure for new readers. Although to be honest, I was able to finish this much faster than the Legend of Galactic Heroes novel. Hopefully J-Novel Club will be able to complete both Crest and Banner content--and looking forward to the physical book releases next year. And I remember reading fan translations of stuff after Banner of the Stars III, so I hope these are also eventually officially translated as well.
  19. I'm thinking hard.... Heinz will join Walkure! j/k. It's a hilarious outcome I wonder what people's reactions would be if that happens.
  20. I thought I was having a good day today and now I see this development. Aaargh. I only wish that people just stop buying anything Robotech-related. Please, even if it looks good. You're putting money in the pockets of HG and Tatsunoko.

    Macross Books

    Nice. More pics please!
  22. Unfortunately I got loans to pay off so I'll have to skip this one. Better luck next year to me!
  23. Maybe that's a good price but there's too many hoops to go through to spend that kind of money. I could buy several other things in the meantime much easier and much faster Macross is not my only hobby/interest, I have other 'mouths' to feed. Sorry Kawamori
