Andrew back here again to show you my cheap anime finds from last weekend at the bargain bookstore. This was the first time I’ve seen anime, or DVDs in general at “Bargain Books.” All DVDs were $5 new, including box sets.
Ah! My Goddess Season 1 Collection– This is something I’ve been wanting for a while. Oh My Goddess! was one of the first manga series I read and I have many pleasant memories of it. I did watch the first couple of episodes of the anime adaptation while it was being fansubbed, but lost track of it like I always do with fansubs. I was actually ready to order this for $30 on Rightstuf from the Media Blasters sale going on now, but 5 bucks sounds better to me.
Magic Knight Rayearth Season 1 Collection– I know absolutely nothing about this series, except that it’s from CLAMP and it looks like Sailor moon, but for 5 bucks I’ll give the complete first season a try.
Shaman King Uncut Volumes 1 and 2– Shaman King was one of those shows I used to watch on the FoxBox aka 4KidsTV. As a 4Kids dub, Shaman King obviously received a lot of flack from the fans. I won’t comment on the dub, but I did enjoy the anime to a degree. I thought “Wooden Sword” Ryu was a great character. These DVDs are uncut with the original Japanese dialogue. Unfortunately, these are the only two Shaman King DVDs to come out in America.
Yu Yu Hakusho/Ninku Double Feature– I bought this mainly for Yu Yu Hakusho, like everybody else. From what I heard, this has a completely different voice cast than the FUNimation dub. But I’m OK with that.
