I ended up with about 5 boxes filled with anime from the 70's to now. "Steve" and I got a box filled with Raijin Comics and Animerica Extra, two manga anthologies that I read ages ago Very surprised with this, especially with Raijin Comics. "Steve" and I agreed to split the box, me getting the Animerica Extras and "Steve" getting the Raijin Comics. May not have been the smartest decision. I mean, I love Animerica. Just not as big a fan of the "Extras". Don't know why either, seeing as I am a fan of Video Girl Ai, Banana Fish, and many of the others. Maybe it was the fact that Raijin Comics had Fist of the Blue Sky, Slam Dunk, City Hunter, Guardian Angel Getten, Baki the Grappler, and Keiji. Damn it, "Steve".
At least I have the millions of fansubs of series I have been meaning to download but couldn't find...oh wait, my VCRs didn't work. Damn it. I went and bought a newer VCR, and I was ecstatic to find that my tapes worked. Another unfortunate aspect of this great day was the fact that most of these tapes were S-VHS, or Super VHS. The VCR couldn't play these tapes. After smashing a few things, I went to the Salvation Army store and low and behold, I found a VCR with S-VHS playback. PERFECT. Now, I am watching some classic OVAs and TV series, like Heavy Metal L-Gaim, High School Kimengumi, and Akazukin Chacha. Expect some reviews from all of these series, especially the OVAs. Many of them are absolutely unheard of, and that's pretty sad, considering I'm a huge fan of the stuff. The Cockpit, for one, is still one of the most powerful anime ever, and that was never really given a fair shot outside of its crappy Urban Vision release.
..Whatever.
