@Code

2:25 Actually Funimation & NISAmerica as of the past year have released Limited Edition Boxsets which generally consist of:

*Blu-Ray & DVD Combo Packs

*The Complete Series/All The Episodes + extras like OVA Episodes, Interviews, Commercials, Etc

*A Chipboard Artbox

*Freebies like a hankercheif, calender, keychain, artbook etc

AniplexUS does this too but theirs are a bit more pricey @_@

I completely agree bro! Your lemonade example was simple but brilliant. And I love how you pretty much ended it with "sell shit, that people wanna buy." XD complete epic discussion and rant code! Thumbs up.

@funclip31 thanks a lot dude, good to see you back!

Nice opening/ending & Jump cuts NHK!! Definitely think that companies like bandai and viz don't realize going digital isn't going to take off like they expect. Unfortunately one day manga will probably be out of print form but until that day i'm going to keep collecting the physical copies.

@AniMangaWorld and thanks ^_^

@superotakushow sorry, i love manga, but im not going to contribute to the death of the physical distribution of manga.

Definitely agree with you. Although, yes, switching to digital saves the company a ton of money, it's not what people want to buy. Plus, I also read somewhere that if you DO sign up online, you can only keep the issues for a year, and then they get deleted. Not cool. It makes me just want to continue buying the physical copies of books whenever I can scrape up some money and schlepp myself off to the nearest bookstore. That limits me to the few series that I'm actually going to pay for.

@ CodeProvider A small part of me is going to die if I see physical manga turn into nothing more than a relic of the past. I cannot pinpoint the reason why, but I am significantly more entertained reading physical manga than I am reading it online, or otherwise on a screen. And another thing: Why do Viz and Jump think that they'll make better sales by putting their product on ipads and computers (which not everyone has, or can afford) than they will by selling $7 - $10 physical books?

100% agree with everything you said!!! i hate this whole digital movement!!! manga loses its appeal online, the only manga i read online is hunter x hunter cause the long hiatuses. FUCK YOU SHONEN JUMP, DON'T KILL MANGA!!!

@Deathgod840

Joo has da lemonz infatuation

[TheBboytwisted]

@superotakushow bullshit

[stuckreadingmanga]

The fact that Bandai is going online is stupid, because not many buy Bandai volumes as much as they buy something like Shonen Jump or Yen Press. It's not as well-known - I suspect that in a couple of years Bandai will crash, burn and die.
