Unboxing [UK]: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven (PS4)

I was able to get my hands on the latest JoJo game though at the cost of having to pay full SRP (because it's now getting rare).

Unboxing [US]: Nisekoi: False Love - Volume 4 (Blu-ray)

Back in December was yet another Rightstuf Xmas sale, however due to the UK's rate against the dollar being very poor I couldn't go after any of the sets at a reasonable price. But what caught me off guard was the surprising appearance of a bunch of Aniplex Blu-rays going on sale. I was hoping for Monogatari to turn up but it sadly didn't, but it did get the opportunity to finish off the first season of Nisekoi!

Here's the fourth and final volume for the first season:

A sequel that came out of nowhere, and also out of nowhere gets localised for English release!

EL PSY CONGROO

Unboxing [UK]: Akira - Collector's Edition 2016 Re-Release (BD/DVD)

Akira! One of the first anime films I had ever seen. I already owned the Manga UK DVD that was re-released around 2011/12-ish but at the time a Blu-ray version was already out there, and I've been meaning to own the HD version since. And just recently this release happened, so here it is.

Unboxing/Overview: One Piece Manga Box Sets 1, 2 & 3

After waiting two years I finally have access to the next batch of volumes for the long-running shonen series One Piece. And I figured it would cool to share the other two box sets alongside the current one, so this is an overview for Box Sets 1 & 2 and an unboxing for Box Set 3!

TO ONE PIECE!

Industry News: Funimation March 2017 Release Slate

A few days late (well I've been occupied) but Funimation have continued to slowly put out new titles and bring in more re-releases.

Unboxing [US]: The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya - Complete Series: Collector's Edition (Blu-ray)

Here's a quick recap to explain this pickup - I pre-ordered the set on the day that the UK officially voted to leave the EU and I pre-paid early because I feared the rate would get worse down the line. And by the time the set had arrived, I was already back in Uni so it was only until now that I was able to open the set.

So here's a look at the recent collector's edition set from Funimation.

Unboxing [UK]: Mai Mai Miracle - Collector's Edition & Artbook (Kickstarter) [$130 Tier] (BD/DVD)

It took a long time, but Anime Limited have finally managed to finish the kickstarter for Mai Mai Miracle.

Here's what this kickstarter exclusive collector's edition release looks like.

Unboxing [UK]: Psycho Pass 2 - Complete Series: Collector's Edition (Blu-ray)

Picked this up during the All the Anime Christmas Sale plus used the £5 voucher that many people (like myself) received due to the Your Lie in April stock delay.

Unboxing [US]: Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions! Heart Throb - Complete Series: Collector's Edition (BD/DVD)

Well this took longer than I anticipated. The set shipped out weeks in advance from Rightstuf but due to international shipping it arrived later than everyone else including those who bought the set from United Publications. Oh well.

Otaku Collection 2016: November Update | MCM Birmingham Pickups, Final Fantasy XV & Shinkai Films
