The gripe? Only 2 episodes on each DVD *dies*
24 episodes = 12 x 6,930 Yen = 83160 Yen (approx US$850) You’ve got to be kidding me (o_O) And that doesn’t include shipping cost *faint* Erm, and please don’t do a Darker than Black / Koutetsu Sangokushi and release an additional episode 25 that is on DVD only (unless it is also included in the vol 12 DVD *grin*)
Update 28 May 2008
Hmm… there’s some “conflicting” info about the number of episodes that will be released for this series. There wasn’t any confirmation that there will be 24 episodes, was there? Just a rumour? Cos upon closer inspection… if each DVD only contains 2 episodes and only 6 DVDs will be released (I just noticed that the marketing promo text at comi-comi was saying that the 6th DVD is the final one o_O) So logically there are only 12 episodes? Unless plans are underway for Season 2… *rubs chin* Anyway…
Update 29 July 2008
Yup there’ll be Season 2 ^^ Official announcement out. Season 2 first episode will air in October XD Yay~ more Junjou goodness to look forward to.

It is amazing.
Eh, not really..the only Daiso in my city is located inside the mall and it isn’t something like department store. it’s just a space as big as couple of convenience store.
The shop assistant hollering and hollering in Japanese language.
Does SG have Papaya supermarket? I heard it’s from Japan. LOL, thou they dun have papaya over there.
Wow that’s quite big! XD Our Daiso outlets are most probably smaller than that.
Ooo~ not heard of Papaya supermarket lol~ seriously they’re so fruit deprived ^^ It is something SG take for granted too. We have so many varieties of fruit. Very fortunate. My teacher used to tell us that never order fruit in Japan cos it costs more than your main meal. Don’t know if it is still true now? I didn’t notice the prices when I was there a few years ago.
Your teacher is right. banana, avocado, coconut, mango, watermelon, pineapple and other tropical fruits are expensive.
I dunno about other fruit, during my stay or whenever i went there i just eat the regulars such as orange and apple. they’re so common but i think those two are imported from China.
Japan is poor is natural resources, they depend a lot to China for food (rice etc)
Fruits in SG are pretty similar wif Indo, right? they have errrr the fruit with similar as SG Esplanade XD
icic… I just remembered a Japan Hour TV program I watched recently. A mango that was planted in Japan cost S$80 (O_O) That’s about 20 times more expensive!!!
That’s interesting. I didn’t realise that Japan is poor in natural resources too cos it gave me an impression that it is very self-sufficient.
I love durians XD YUMMY! Yeah I think we should have quite similar varieties of fruits. Lucky ah we all~
What the….? Well i know it’s expensive but surprised because it’s really that expensive.
We should just pay our figurines wif mango or papaya. they should be grateful. LOL
I like Durian but cannot say i love it. XD I heard eating Durian too much can be dangerous. Durian is expensive in here because we mostly imported from Thailand. Local durian is not as tasty as those Monthong Durian.
LOL I want to do that too XD
O~ well only if you eat the durian and drink hard liquor. The combination is supposedly lethal. I don’t know if it was true tho’ but we usually take heed, just in case hehe
As a health conscious issue, durians are very high in sugar and carbohydrate content, so it is not good for the body if you ate too much.
Thai durians are the best ( ^_^)b The D24 grade is supposedly the king of durians hehe.
Yea, that’s what i meant. Cannot eat ’satay’ too otherwise you’re overheat^^
Have you ever heard the myth of ‘never eat watermelon with sugar or you die.” seriously it freaked me out when i was a kid.
What’s a D24 grade? i don’t have Durian-ology certificate from Stanford XD All i know is Monthong Durian and local Durian.
Can you eat Durian in your flat? I mean i heard that some people are very allergic or disgusted by Durian (and its smell)
Oh~ I didn’t know satay is in the list too XD But usually eating durian by itself is filling enough so we seldom eat it with other foods.
Hahaha Nope… I’ve only heard about swallowing watermelon seeds. They say that the seed will grow into a watermelon in your stomach but I didn’t believe it lol~
Hmm I’m also not sure how the grading works but its common knowledge here that D24 is the best. The durian’s meat is thick, creamy and rich, sometimes tastes as if there was alcohol in it. But nowadays, there are D24 sold everywhere, we’re also not sure if the quality is as good anymore.
Eating durian in a flat is no issue. The smell will only be a problem in air-conditioned rooms. That’s when the lingering aroma turns into the smell of a sewer XD I’ve experienced it before lol~ Really quite bad XD
Hey i heard the same thing about swallowing seeds but in grape, not watermelon.
Satay, ginseng. goat meat that ought to kill you if eat it together with durian.
There is also term of “mabuk durian”, mabuk means ‘drunk’ i dunno what that means because never saw one.
Yuck! so how’s the trick? let the window open or blow away the smell with fan?^_^
Years ago my family and i went on vacation and staying in a hotel. we bought durian but not allowed to eat in the hotel, so we eat durian in the pakring lot XD sure is weird.
ei~ I never heard of “mabuk durian” either. Could it be that it is cos of the taste? Some D24 durians so taste slightly of alcohol ^^
Ah… as long as there’s ventilation and open air-circulation, the smell won’t linger but if it is air-conditioning in a closed room, it is a different story. The smell would stay inside the air-con for days and it will smell like the sewer. And with air-con, it doesn’t take long for the smell to “circulate” haha. This is especially serious if you’re talking about buildings like hotels with central air-conditioning. XD Some of my friends wanted to bring durians back for their families so they bought a pack. But they find that they couldn’t contain the smell in their hotel room even after 3~4 layers of plastic. In the end they had to throw it away cos they were already too full from eating the durian before that ^^
Oh~ we also can’t bring durians into MRT too XD Eating durian at the carpark lot… that’s a memorable holiday experience!
