Saturday was a great day for Animail. There were five packages sitting on the front porch. Three of the artboxes I ordered had arrived: Gun x Sword, Ai Yori Aoshi – Enishi, and Requiem From the Darkness.
The Requiem… box was not at all what I thought it would be. Rather than a sturdy box that contains all of a series’ keepcases, this was set up like a digipak with clear plastic disc trays bound like pages in a book. It’s a nice idea, but what do you do with the keepcases that volumes 2, 3, and 4 come in? I guess some people would just toss them out. I’ll probably store them in a drawer somewhere.
My pre-ordered copy of Strait Jacket arrived a couple of days early. It looks pretty cool. I may get around to watching it within the next couple of days. And speaking of early shipping pre-orders, I hold in my hand a copy of Devil May Cry vol. 3! This will also jump up the “too watch” ladder.
There might be an update after I get home from work.
