Junjo Romantica / AnimationSHIPPED! Hohoho ^^)v Arrived!

Library scene uncensored *evil grin*

Anyway these 2 episodes of Nowaki x Hiroki are both my favourites cos besides the hot smex, it was rather touching and angsty :)

The DVD contains episode 5 and 6. It also comes with the short manga and a cute brown place mat with chopsticks. Both mat and chopsticks are printed with teddy bear Suzuki-san’s face I’ll post the photos when I can. I love the cover illustration and designs too. Really pretty. Gaaa… this series of DVDs are saccarine sweet. I’m so glad that season 2 is going to air in October! Love to see more Junjou cuteness xD

Expect reviews and clips soon! Oh yes… and the drama-mama library scene… (more…)

BL Anime: Junjou Romantica DVD Release!

Posted in Anime, Character Goods / Misc, Manga by ponytale on May 20th, 2008

純情ロマンチカ Junjou Romantica DVD vol 1. will be released on 25 July 2008! :D

There’ll be two versions, limited and normal.

Junjo Romantica / AnimationDVD Vol. 1 LimitedLimited Vol. 1 DVD will have the following goodies:

  • DVD outer box (left pic) illustrated by Nakamura-sensei
  • DVD jacket Illustration (right pic) by Nakamura-sensei and 8-page liner note
  • A special 16-page manga #1 that features the characters
  • Junjou Romantica rubber ducky X3
  • Coupon #1 for exchanging limited version dvd tokuten
  • Non-broadcast preview trailer

The Damage? 6,930 Yen (w tax)

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.
