Do you collect?
What is your favorite color jellybean?

Those are Starburst flavors. But they have green apple and grape for some reason. My favorite is probably red or pink.
if the video and subtitle quality for releases from Funi and the like were not so terrible, then I would probably purchase them.

I am afraid that these are the only animes I have physical copies of. I am working on increasing my powetlevel, though.

I don't have a single piece of merch. Makes me kinda sad but this shit is so damn expensive.
>>124528546

>>124528484
Im more interested in the games in the background
Sad to say it but I have found that there are very few anime even worth archiving to PC, much less purchasing a hard copy.
I watch a regular amount of shows and knock a few off of my backlog only to delete most of them and never watch or think about them ever again. Very few leave an impression in my mind that they are worthy of purchase: Cowboy Bebop, Bake Neko, Book of Bantorra, Ghost in the Shell, etc.
i started collecting localized light novels but decided to stop.
>>124528923
You shouldn't feel too bad about it. Shit is expensive, and a lot of it isn't even worth it.

Yo that is a nice collection. Literally seen them all, and all of them are good.
>>124528484
I always found it a bit "pointless" to collect merchandise like that, when it's just physical copies of digital media you can download online.
Why not get stuff like figurines or gunpla or keychains or other related merchandise like that, stuff you can't download?
>>124529045
Why those covers anon? why?

The whole shit taste package.
>>124528693
This a million times. When downloads have superior quality in every way, why would I spend money to get shit quality from a US distributor that barely helps the original creator.

>>124529110
Good taste
I did manage to buy a copy of Metropolis off Amazon for like, 8 dollars. That wasn't so bad.
>>124529289

Do ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
>>124529341
Not available yet in my country, also need the rest of the S&W but haven't got round to ordering them.
>>124529245
Burst Angel is fucking awesome.
Hot chicks, cool action and a dumb as fuck "plot". It's perfect fucking popcorn material.
I just buyfag. Figures are my one true love.
>>124528484
Slowly by surly.
>>124529545
The text style on the cover is truly awful who ever did it needs a stern talking to.
Make way, make way! The irredeemable king of the collectorfags has arrived!
>>124529295
jesus there are 12 volumes of that now? last time i bought one they were only up to 5
How do localized manga compare to scans?
was never too crazy about US anime releases, but I'd be open to purchasing physical copies of manga if they're any good.
>>124529717
And my other shelf
>>124529775
where do you get money for that?
>>124529823
It's called a job you fat fuck

What's the point of saying "my country" if you don't say the actual country's name? What country?

Did you steal these images from ANN or something
>>124529717
you have an empty box on the third shelf...
>>124529847
Sorry, let me rephrase that. What kind of job gives you that much disposable income?
>>124529760
If it wasn't so expensive I'd buy all my manga.
>>124529823
A combination of collecting for a very long time, buying things on closeout, good finds at thrift stores, and yes, having a job.

Vastly vary from country, publisher, edition, particular serie getting a competent staff working on it and so on.

Let's not start this shit again.Importing is fine (it's actually the best way to collect manga ideally) but if you don't know moon - which is the overwhelming majority of people here and pretty much everywhere except /jp/ - you might aswell buy toilet paper as you're reading on scans anyway. Although the "support directy the author" point still stands, but to each their own.Localized has its perks too (namely: actually reading it) but is undeniably less supportive of the industry and keen to more problems as the serie is passing under another "round" of work, from editing and translation to physical edition and eventual publishing issues like delays or interruptions. Also vastly depends where you live, Italy and France are a completely different thing from US for example.
>>124530016
No, you're on /a/. That means one of two things. Either you're dividing your attention, in which case, fuck you, or you're not actually watching it, in which case fuck you too.
>>124528484
>Disney presents
Legitimately disgusting
>>124528484
which of those are good /a/?
>>124528484
>HEY GUYS CHECK OUT MY ENTRY LEVEL SHIT!
ok
>>124530626
All of them except for the Eva Rebuilds, which are shit, and maybe Battle of the Gods which I haven't seen so I have no idea.
>>124529045
>Those covers
who the actual fuck decided that was a good idea
>>124530658
The entry level shit are the stuff worth owning since they aren't an embarrassment compare to the shit we commonly consume in /a/

Enjoy your obsolete media formats, plebs

Apparently they thought they would sell better without a korean cartoon character on the front.

>story designed to appeal to Vietnamese manchildren
>think it would sell best if advertised to western middle-aged housewives who read erotic novels they got at the local convenience store
>>124530626
depends. are you getting into anime now/have you watched a small amount or only shounen so far?
if yes then they're all good, some even great.
if not then you'll like them but you'll probably not understand why people think they are so good.
>>124528484
I don't even save video files anymore. Mostly because I poorfag and don't have money to buy more TB HDD's, but nevertheless.
>>124528693
This this
I have the same caste in sky as OP. The subs are shit. Shiiiiit. Some US distributors aren't so bad but sometimesthe English subs done by nips in the Japanese release is better that the subs in the US release.
>>124530344
I like your rationality.
To add, you just have to do your research before you buy it. It's all hit or miss with localization. I've seen publishers butcher original jap style and I've seen other publishers do things beautifully. For example the former DelRey even kept the original sound effects intact with only a small, discrete english trans on the side.
Always do research before buying because the publisher, editor, and translator can all create varying results.
