I barely have the money for anime DVDs in the first place (had to wait till
Christmas to get the early Eva DVDs and still haven't completed my
Escaflowne on DVD collection since its such a ripoff).  Two hundred and
forty dollars has been spent on that series, and I sure as hell don't feel
like spending anymore.  As bad as it is, I think I'll keep the lower-quality
original first disc and just buy the box.  Its not like I'd even have the
money for it if I had the choice to rebuy the first DVD. :(  ADV's doing
nothing but trying to rip us off even more.  *Sees the new 'Directors Cut'
DVDs for $40 each in a year or two* -_-
