Yet on the site, ROD Vol. 4 shows 485 copies in stock and Paranoia Agent Vol. 3 shows 158 copies.
What's going on?

- Licensed by Royalty: It's in my backlog, but from what I have heard, the series has been compare to the James Bond series.
- Master Keaton: It's in my backlog as well. I don't know too much about the series, but the creator is the same as the one that created Monster so expect a heavy dose of drama.

And do you think I'm screwed on Last Exile vol. 1 LE? It was in-stock when I bought it (I placed my order early because I wanted to make sure I got it), but now it's sold out.

And i want to thank everyone who takes the time to keep this anime thread going. you guys are doing a great job. thanks again!

I have heard good things about Master Keaton. L/R looked uninteresting to me, but if you like that sort of crime/spy series it may be worth looking at.

I was a little strapped for cash when the righstuf special started.
I picked up:
Heat Guy J Vol. 1-7
Captain Herlock 1,3,4 LE
Got Herlock Vol. 2 from DD with the 20% for $15.00
Not too shabby!

The Gantz sets are a good deal, although RS did sell them for $24.99 at one time. The Noir thinpak for $39.99 is a great deal(I've never seen it any cheaper).

You should be fine, you payed for it, so as I see it they really have no choice but to send it to you. Of course, I haven't had much experience with it before though, I only took part in one other Abundance sale.

FYI - since I saw it in the list there - Blood: The Last Vampire is getting an American live-action remake and the star is being played by the Korean hottie who starred in "My Sassy Girl" -- now going by the westernized name of Gianna Jun.

However, once you receive the magical brown box containing 25 DVDs that you only paid $100 for, you'll know that it's worth it! The waiting will be easier in the future once you have amassed a backlog.

At least if it shows with 0 stock and isn't removed, they will probably get a few more in sometime before the end of the sale. If that happens and I'm lucky enough to get it, I'll have to make a 10 order to go with the two 25's I've already got!
I am going to be so poor (in a good way)!
