Anime North: To go or not to go?

Friday, May 28th, 2010 at 10:41 am

I know I looked at admission fees earlier…but I looked at them again today and jeebus! $40 just for admission!?!? that’s crazy!

I’m gonna list out the items I want to buy….and see if I can make that $80 up in discounts/value…$80 because I’d bring Z with me and she doesn’t wanna buy anything…

Hikaru no Go Manga – 19/23 Volumes released
Prince of Tennis Manga – 38/42 Volumes released






Damn, HnG and PoT are both so close to finishing..and they’ll probably have a box set after the whole thing is released (I would think)….maybe I won’t collect those for now….

I doubt I can make $80 of discounts in toys…damn…maybe I won’t go after all…I’ll just go to FanExpo…unless possibly I can score a free admission to AN….I’ll have to check my sources – I mean, friends – I mean, people I use for stuff. Just joking, they’re my friends…really, they are.

Hamsters in action

A video I took of my hamsters…
Note: This video is NOT fast, it’s normal real-time. Hamsters are just fast.

Hamsters!

I’ll explain the naming convention now: the 5 hamsters are named after the Friends series. All 5 names are girl names, Monica, Rachel, Phoebe, Joey…and Chandler, which is a girl name in the series (Phoebe’s half brother’s triplets). Ross is the odd name out…not a girl name…so there’s no Ross in this group. Kinda sad but oh well.

I’m ready for more manga!

I purchased an IKEA Kilby bookcase this weekend to story my manga…I realized I had run out of space for my manga…and even if I wanted to collect a new series, Prince of Tennis or Hikaru no Go…I would have no room. With this shelf, I can now go crazy with another series :D It’s a bit…ironic that the shelf looks really empty right now…and I want a full shelf. But if I had a full shelf, I wouldn’t be able to store any more manga…and would have to buy another shelf, that wouldn’t be full. I think it’s just the OCD in me, feeling this shelf has too much space (and it does). But it won’t forever.

Mangas currently on the shelf:

Dragon Ball Z (Chinese) – Vol 33-42
Dragon Ball Z (English) – Vol 1-26 – Complete Series – Collector’s Box Set Edition
Neon Genesis Evangelion – Vol 1-11 – Currently up to date
Get Backers – Vol 1-25 – Complete Series
Get Backers: Infinity Fortress – Vol 1-2 – Currently up to date
Naruto – Vol 1-27 – Complete Series – Collector’s Box Set Edition

And Zena’s manga…which I have no details on:
Kare Kano
Mars
Peach Girl
Cardcaptor Sakura

Whoa. I just realized that Hikaru no Go isn’t a crazy long manga like I thought…it’s only about 25~ volumes. When I randomly picked up volume 12 or something, it looked like the scene I was reading was from episode 13 or something…maybe it was a flashback. Hikaru no Go is 20 issues so far…Prince of Tennis is 36 so far…Slam Dunk! is 11…
I think I shall collect them…ALL MWHAHAHAHahahah! Actually, just Hikaru no Go and Prince of Tennis for now…Slam Dunk! can wait…

I’m pretty excited for AnimeNorth (2 weeks!). I didn’t have that much I was gonna buy before…but things have changed! It’s gonna be one crazy ass expensive weekend.
