No particular reason. You're just rather... sprightly for whatever reason.
 
TC, y u no finish GC conversation from yesterday? You never said why you thought it was meh.
I'd like to hear this too. The quality of the show is definitely going up, aside from that assdumb ending.

Still it's NOT a waste. What is one thing pretty much most of us have here? Disposable income. What are we to use it on? Whatever we feel is worth the money.
You're so bratty on the subject of money. I'm sure when you get your own place that the $370 you're going to spend on F/Z is going to feel wasted. That's quite a bit of money.

I will flood your page with Cowboy Bebop.

I will link you to full episodes, disguising them as Zelda-related material.
Do it.
Yet another reason the rest of the world should be more like AMERICA. :)
Murricuh, 🤬 YEAH!!!
"Hang on..."

Yet another reason the rest of the world should be more like GERMANY. :)
"Fixed."
"Sounds kinda Nazi-ish."
"SCHEISSE!!!"
 
To me, it's pretty much on the same quality level as it has been for the past few weeks. Again, it's hard for me to explain, so we'll just leave it at that.

I would prefer JAPAN. Then we could all live in a world where everything was awesome and TC complained how it would end up getting ruined.

Also, where's the colour and the sparkle gone compared to your average post in that sentence, Sephy? :indiff:

I'm merely stating the obvious.:rolleyes:AOS- isn't wasting his money if he truly wants those figures, and they're worth the money to him.

Also, you really think that Fate/Zero box is going to feel like a waste in the future when I get my own place? My heart is dead set on getting it. There are other imports I want as well like the Durarara!! Blu-ray Box. I have never regretted a purchase, and I doubt I will in the future, especially when I'm an adult with a good-paying full-time job in like 10 years where that $370 will feel not as much as it does now.

Also if you think $370 is quite a bit of money for adults with full-time jobs that are much more than minimum wage, you need to look at how much the person makes. If you make $30,000 a year, that's a very small fraction of that salary. The US per capita is this much right now. That's the average salary for an American.
11 United States $47,200 2010 est.
It's probably lower now, but probably still above $40,000.

Did I stutter? Yes, I do think you'll regret it at some point.

Your optimism annoys me, just remember that there's going to be crap times financially and you may not get a well paying job. My mom runs her own business and we are getting 🤬 hard financially. Life is sporadic.
 
Whoa...

For comparison sake...here is Italy's Vol.1 combo LE (DVD+Blu-ray+CD+Booklet+Figure+Card)

1. And if I never do regret it?
2. I'm aware, but you know what, you just deal with it. Also if you truly are getting hit that hard financially, explain how you got that laptop, and that stuff for Christmas? IIRC, you got a new laptop a few months ago.

I'm pretty sure I've said this before: I would never consider paying $370 for an anime boxset, unless it was signed by Gendo, Shinji, Asuka, Rei and Misato. Therefore, I wouldn't pay $370. Besides, the anime industry has other ways of raking in money, e.g. merchandise.

Or if you study the right field you can get a $40K+ starting pay at 22 like me 👍. To me, $370 is still quite a bit, but if it's something you really want then it's always worth the money. The Kouki tails for my SW22 cost me more than that :ouch:

I totally want that Inori Nendo.

Your understanding of money is just broken. Sorry.

My rent isn't even what you are paying for that box set. But I also live in a dirt cheap place.

And you're a kid, of course you don't regret purchases because you simply haven't lived long enough to change interests much. A few years into college and you'll be sitting there going "why on earth did I spend $XXXX on this anime stuff? I could have a nice car, saved it and invested it and rented a nicer, quieter place while at school, or maybe done something awesome over a summer such as backpacking across Europe."

Instead, what you have is a bunch of stuff you could very well get later in life that isn't going to develop into critical memories.

And trying to brush of close $400 as not a big deal because in 10 years you'll have a great job? Oh my. That much money at your age is a stupid amount to just spend on anything.

But that is all just from Pokemon, which shouldn't count anyway, remember?

REMEMBER?!

Then you never regret it :dopey:

Got the laptop around October or so, when my Mom was still with her boyfriend and we had twice the income. They're getting back together now, much to my dismay. I'm ready to kick his ass, but that's not the point.

Yes they do, though the DVD's and BD's are what the companies rely on the most, especially since there is no ad money to speak of for the vast majority of shows. Only stuff like this gets ad revenue.

:lol:
Of course not, seeing as it got raped by 4kids.
 
My rent isn't even what you are paying for that box set.
Disgusting no matter how you look at it. 13 episodes and nifty goodies are worth more than shelter :lol: But then again, if TC plays it right and leave the boxset in perfect condition, it could be worth an even dumber amount of money and TC could seriously profit.

GUYS, TC is actually a financial wizard and he's going to make an insane investment! Bow to this man and we may get a cut of his future wealth!
 
You're forgetting who you're talking about. I'm 17 years old, and a high school junior. Am I going to have to pay rent soon? No. My sister who just finished her 4th year of college in December hasn't had to either. My parents were kind enough to let her live here while she went to college since it's not like OVER 9,000 miles away.

My shelter is 1.75 times the amount of that BD Boxset.

Man, I want to live in that world you live in.

So you're plan is to live with your parents for the next 5 years, while you finish school? I take you don't plan on having girls over or any of that insane independence stuff?

Or, you know, studying else where because another school might offer a better program for the field you are going into. Which is what by the way?

And how did she pay for college? Wait, wait, your parents?

Also, you should elaborate on why GC is meh now, considering it is just starting to get good...
 
If that was entirely watercolour, +rep for getting the transparent fabric. Unfortunately, this ain't an 100% traditional painting.

You mean like with what happened to Garden of Sinners after it sold out both here and in Japan? It's Fate/Zero's predecessor in the expensive import department.

My first two Dragon Boxes are already worth this much. I got both for $30 each at Rightstuf in August before they sold out.

And how did she pay for college? Wait, wait, your parents?
False. My parents did not give her a cent. They can't even afford to pay for college without loans.

She did the loans and paid with her own money made from her part-time job which happens to be minimum wage. When she's done (She's going to go for a 5th year.), she's going to come out of it with basically no debt.

Girls? In his house? :lol:

I was actually referring to every single piece of rare memorabilia ever. My brain isn't constantly thinking about anime, box sets and inflation.
