Looks like Now's the time for that Berserk Box set...

Also, the Love Hina Collection (All six volumes and the three specials DVD's) For just under 90 bucks.

Hm, it was $99.99 at mine.

I tried to keep it in the "really great deal" price range, that's merely a good deal.

Also, make sure you ask if they have some of this in stock. Where I come from, the entire department hates anime besides me and someone else. Section's a mess and nobody ever restocks it right. Most of the boxes are in the back. I always end up going to the back to get stuff for people because everyone else automatically tells them we don't have it in stock.

That's a real cock thing to do. Thank god for those prices.

A note:

ADV removed the stupid overlays from this new release. The only one remaining is a dumb logo-redo on the OP. So, get this version of Nadesico -- you can ignore the other one.
