Otaku Collection #6 | 30th December 2017

This update has been delayed for way too long. It's been around 16 months since my last major complete collection update, and I got way more than I had anticipated. Between the months that had passed I finished my third & final year of University and managed to get certain items once I returned home.

If you like a quick recap on the previous update, here's my post on the 5th collection from back in September 2016. Nevertheless, here is my 6th collection update. There's a lot of new additions this time around and some areas weren't updated so I omitted them out (retro games and consoles for example).


Remember the Otaku Collection updates contain anime, manga, asian cinema films, video games and anything related to these topics. So let's begin!

Unboxing [UK]: Noein ~to your other self~ - Complete Series: Collector's Edition (Blu-ray)

A surprise package from Anime Limited's store. Their 12 Days of Christmas sale had a bunch of setbacks but surprisingly my Day 11 order arrived 24 hours after dispatch (whereas my pre-order sets took a couple more days).

Unboxing [UK]: Sword of the Stranger - Collector's Edition (BD/DVD)

Much like FREEDOM, I also decided to double-dip for a better release with Anime Limited's release of one of studio Bones' films that got rescued by the distributor from the old Beez/Bandai days.

Unboxing [US]: FREEDOM - Complete Series: Limited Edition (Blu-ray)

A long time ago I acquired the UK release that Manga UK put out, and it turned out to be a inferior version compared to the Beez/Bandai Visual/Honneamise/Japanese release.

Now I have finally acquired the Bandai Visual/Honneamise release, an English translated replica of the Japanese release. Let's see what it has to offer.

Otaku Collection 2017: November Update | Kimi no Na wa? Ki ni Narimasu!

This month has had quite a lot going on for me personally, but regardless I was able to acquire a fair amount of titles including two big releases from Anime Limited. Due to a delay in stock, A Silent Voice won't be part of the November slate sadly.
