Releases for the week of 05/05/08 photo



Happy Cinco de Mayo! This is the week of spending, my friends! This is the week we have all been waiting for, the week when the anime Gods have smiled down on us and blessed us with a plentiful harvest.

We have a lot of great releases this week, such as the highly anticipated first volume of Lucky Star; now go and buy so you may see my wife in action. If that is not your thing, then maybe Night Shift Nurses: Karte 5.5 is, because of its "adult" nature (wink wink). We also have two new BIG Edition releases of the Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z manga; I’m not sure what that consists of, but it sounds GIANT. Start salivating after the jump.

Night Shit Nurses? I can no longer think of this as hawt thanks to you God Len, and instead imagine a video about a bed pan gathering group of interns.
*shudder*
 
God Len

hahahah it worked
 
nilcam

Tweeny Witches and Eden are mine.
 
The-Excel

Lucky Star is released already?
 
Xelotath

Lucky Star SE ftw! but I hate that t-shirt. A huge Konata face at the back and a small lucky star logo at the from would be awesomer.

 
Chibi_Zero

I've had Lucky Star for a few weeks now. And I agree the shirt is pretty meh.
 
Heero Yuy

Yeah, animecornerstore delivered their box set preorders a while ago. I've had mine for two weeks at least now too...
 
Peter H

Wow, Azumi 2 came out?
 
Tertiee

That Lucky Star t-shirt is very disturbing when seen live.
 
yuetheguardian

I now own the lucky star box and love how its smaller then the haruhi set. even though its twice as long ^_^;;
 
Chibi_Zero

yuetheguardian: It's not much smaller than the Haruhi Box.

Also, I actually use to enjoy Night Shift Nurses... until I saw it completely uncut.
 
shadowrep

hmm i am sooo tempted to pick up that lucky star box
aslong as it is reasonable for pricing im picking up haruhi box for £40 which does not hurt my wallet
