Wait a minute, you BOUGHT anime, Carl? You're shattering my illusion of a Carl Horn who absorbs and retains all of the anime data he needs in his mind, leaving his modest studio apartment relatively spacious. You once told me that you kept a small collection because you "internalize"-- I wish I could internalize 800 DVDs.
Last thing I bought with money was the Dirty Pair sets. Just seemed like a colossal no-brainer to me.
Since you brought up Eden of the East, it reminds me of something I wonder about-- the volume of sales that anime conventions are responsible for. Funimation, at least, tend to sell out of several titles at every 'big' con they go to At NYAF, they brought several thousand EDEN OF THE EASTs a few days before street date, and sold every single one.
