7 DVDs?
So it's 3 for the series, and 1 DVD for the OVA... where's the other 3 come from? (maybe a soundtrack or two, or it could be a mix-up?)
If that price is correct I might even go for this one! |

The original disks were 2 DVDs each the same as GITS:SaC I believe so those plus the film = 7.
I placed my preorder which was accepted at £9.99 so wait and see I guess. |

aw HMV... do they still stick the anime next to the porno's ?
I certainly don't miss having to fight my way through sweaty guys perving at the covers to look at my beloved anime. _________________ Subtitles only!? If I wanted to read I would've bought a book!  |

But cartoon porn should be with the regular porn right? It just makes sense...
*note the heavy sarcasm*
And yep to your question. I went to the one in Piccadily Circus in London during the week and it was shoved in the back corner next to the porn. (most of the ADV stuff was going cheap from £8-15, some Beez stuff at around £13 as well so it's worth being looked at like a pervert for) |

Hmm well as this is HMV Online do you mean that your bedroom, or wherever you have your PC, is full of sweaty guys looking at your porn collection? |

hmmm, I wondered what that smell was! LOL
I guess it's just the Hanley branch, back when I was in uni my anime lovin' cohorts and I all used to go and check out the new releases, it always annoyed me, the way they sticked the anime next to the porn like it was no better than it or something!

They have actually just relocated the anime section (and the Martial Arts section along with it) in Manchester to be right next to the games section, which is kind of appropriate. The shelf is right opposite the wall where the chart DVDs start, which is kind of nice . |

Time to check that link again! For those who held back on pre-ordering this it's too late as the price has gone up to over double at £22.99 (which in all fairness is still cheaper than most other sites).
I've preordered this and apparently it's still at £9.99 so hopefully they won't change their minds! |

It came in the morning's post! I am happy.
Nice little thinpack release, with 7 DVDs being crammed into 4 cases. I like!
The headline on the back page is "What do you do when the girl you love becomes a weapon of mass destruction?". I couldn't help but laugh, are we really supposed to take this show seriously? [/cold-hearted]  |
