I am sorry to bother but is this "X" animes really that good? Its from Clamp and got lots of "A"-Ratings on several websites.

No review @ dvdtalk :(

And what the hell are these "X TV Series Remix" DVDs at rightstuf.com? Re-Release? But why only 5 DVDs and not 8?

http://www.rightstuf.com/1-800-338-6...em/69869/4/0/0

Looks like there was already a "sale" with a case for these 5DVDs and now the DVDs are in the bargain bin...without the case :(


Once again, this was a show aired at night and aimed primarily at an older teen and adult audience. People die, often bloodily (although it's not nearly as gory as the manga). There are many adult themes and siutations, but no nudity or sex.
Looks like thats an anime for adults...i dont like that very much (i like comedy, sci-fi and funny characters :))

I like it. Those who enjoy other CLAMP series may like this as well. The Remix releases include newly encoded video and audio. There are some reviews over @ Mania.com / AnimeOnDVD.

Anime T-Shirts?????? Sizing?????
 
Anime t-shirt sizing??????

Anyone have any thoughts on anime t-shirt sizing?

Not a major fan of anime related products besides DVDs (and possibly a couple figures here and there in the future), but apparently I can get a free anime t-shirt, and would like inputs on sizing.

Most t-shirts that come with anime artboxes are 'x-Large' by default. They're certainly gigantic on me. If an anime t-shirt is listed as 'S', 'M', 'L', how true to size are they.

P.S. I'm / 195 lb. (88.6 kg) / 5'8" - 5'9" / I normally sport 'M' sized shirts. The anime shirt that I might be able to get for free is black; it's probably the only one available that I'd be inclined to wear. It's available in 'S' and 'L'. Large is not going to work. They have the same in red available in 'S' 'M' 'L'. However I certainly prefer the black.

Consider buying the Vandread volumes separately and buy the artbox elsewhere.

Sounds like another case of "Right Stuf blowing out a Bandai show with super-good prices and not enough stock on hand" syndrome (or RSBOABSWSGPANESOHS for short.) When Right Stuf blew out the My-Hime/My-Otome sets from Bandai back in March, it took 6 weeks the last of the discs to arrive. I suspect that it'll be a total of ~6 weeks again for this one.

I already received volumes 5, 6, & 8. The rest are "On Order from Manufacturer". I don't really get why they shipped me the 3 volumes. Not like I am going to watch the middle of the series before the beginning. Seems like a waste of their money (due to free shipping), unless they desperately needed the space.

It's on (very) select Geneon titles. I would imagine that many stores don't have much selection left.
