Anime $_$

Anime is a very expensive hobby should you get deeply into it. I am deeply into it. I never really got into the Manga aspect, I have gotten a few volumes of various series but I just went through them too quickly to really warrant future purchases and I didn't really re-read them. The only real manga flavor I get is the monthly US Shonen Jump magazine, although I'm behind on a few issues as they just stack up on my desk. I'm hoping to get to them soon. I'm debating about whether getting a subscription to NewType USA since that's the only affordable way to get it, but I don't know if it's worth it.

Anyway, back to anime, since it's always very pricy, save for older anime that get put together in a boxset and eventually find a low price, I only buy my anime from RightStuf and also only from their deals. Most of the times it's their weekly deals, sometimes it's their studio deals and occasionally I dabble with their daily deals. The only catch with the affordable deals is that this place seems to have them so often that it soon becomes a pricy venture as you take advantage of the cheap prices. Like right now I just did my last large purchase from rightstuf for awhile, they had a Geneon buy 2 get 1 free deal or a buy 4 get 2 free deal. I chose the latter, and ordered Ikkitousen Volume 2, Last Exile vol 1 w/box, Stellvia vol 1 w/box, Vandread vol 4 and am getting Lupin vol 1 & 2 free. Also adding to the order was a weekly deal, Burn Up Scramble vol 1 w/box, and a daily deal Kiddy Grade vol 4. So it became quite a large order.. At least it'll go on next months' card statement so I have some time to alleviate the financial strain. ^__^
