Finished Akame ga Kill! and the only thing that comes to mind is for an original ending its really good. Not sure how others look at it but I always feared them cus well most of the shows that ive been watching and ended in different way that source werent what I would expect. Will have to rewatch it and look at it from other perspective. + Show Spoiler +One thing that bugs me is that too many characters died imo, I know it is to be considered cus the its the final showdown and all. Would have been bit better if each episode wouldnt end with someone losing their life <lubba, mine, leone>. Duel of sisters was really well done and I can forgive them with this one. Would give a solid 9/10 if I had an acount lolloolo

I thought it was good aside from that one skip near episode 19-20 and what you said. It was my only pickle with the show lol.

if you want to get the expensive ones you usually have to pre-order as someone from outside Japan. I'd assume the stores you link order them themselves based on how many pre-orders they got and the only other way to get one once that's over would be local stores or ebay?
Maybe ask Kaze if he can find it for you lol

Hobbyfan is legit afaik, though their actual stock on the website may not be up to date

+ Show Spoiler [YuYu Hakusho ep18] +Finally a quick fight wow. I love Hiei for cutting that bastard in pieces within seconds. Those fights with the saint beast has become annoying. Especially that Tiger dude. I mean what the fuck? First he exploded. But then he is alive. Sure, fine. Then he drops into lava. And then he is still alive. lol Only to get cut by his mate in one blow. I guess that was only to show of the strength differences between Hiei and the rest or something.

Depends where you live. Overseas shipping is expensive as fuck. Larger companies can probably afford cheaper shipping.
Interestingly, my credit card company denied a charge from Hobbyfan when I tried to preorder a figure from them. =( Oh well, I forgot I preordered the figure from them anyways.

Death Parade followed the exact same formula as Death Billiards. Didn't care for that. I'm really glad that they're mixing it up and exploring the world some more in the next ep.

Log Horizon?
+ Show Spoiler +who's the lvl 100 guy in Kanam's party? Is it the first lvl 100 we meet? Seems pretty badass but the Leonardo the ninja frog with the obvious homage is cool, too.^^

Most of the series will likely be like that anyway.

+ Show Spoiler +it was mentioned that he's some kind of special NPC from a group of knights that are supposed to protect the population in the lore. Those knights disappeared on the JP version but there's apparently this one guy on the China server? Comparing him to Thrall in WoW would be an overkill but he's kind of like that, some super special named mob. I just don't know WoW well enough to make a decent comparison

Some quick impressions.
Aldnoah.Zero S2. Good news is that visual production value finally got an necessary update. Bad news is that anime is still the absolute worst mecha anime man could've come up with. Its scenarist doesn't even know there's no such thing as wind in space, yeah. 2/10
Tokyo Ghoul Root A. Aka Mm-hmm the anime. Aka take-a-shot-everytime-you-notice-a-naruto-ripoff the anime. Aka how-to-become-Buddha-in-less-than-ten-minutes the anime. I think we would watch the shit out of it, it's only 20 minutes of our miserable lives 'a week. 4/10, I guess, the earthquake was animated decently.

So much hate. Wow. I actually think that Tokyo Ghoul is heading towards a good place to make something interesting this time. First season sucked, but I believe that that was some sort of introduccion, which we'll see here. I'm really looking forward to what they'll show us. I haven't read the manga yet, but people says that they changed some stuff, so I'll just watch it weekly without any complain.

+ Show Spoiler +Slaine didn't shoot hime, Saazbaum did? Slaine shot Inaho. Whatever, they turned Slaine from a cool character into an idiot. The only way I can think of how all this could make sense if he is acting to rescue hime. If it turns out he is just an idiot that shot Inaho out of jealousy and now thinks supporting false hime and destroying the humans will make hime happy the writers seriously should consider dropping their job.
Also, how is Inaho alive? Some random doctor turned Tenma level or what? This is so stupid. So much with "having the balls to kill of two main characters. This is like the tiger guy from YuYu Hakusho I mentioned today. lel. High possibility I will drop this soon.

Its bad writing, but its not a surprise. We already knew this anime didn't have the balls to kill anyone.

It's actually really sad how they adapted Tokyo Ghoul, considering that a straight, faithful adaptation with a proper amount of episodes and the right pacing would have blown pretty much most other shows right outta the water.

^ I'm sure they must have had a reason for the way they adapted it.

Slaine ended up shooting Inaho, probably payback for when Inaho shot him down and he was caught and beaten before being released and partially due to jealously. ya, I dunno why Slaine sided with the martians. I mean, I recall him being told that he's one of them by another Martian in the last episode of season 1 but why would you work with the Count who shot Hime-sama and left her in that coma state. I also hope that he has some reason for going along with the current flow instead of just killing the count and sticking with the Terrans (maybe they don't have the technology to keep her alive like that?)
We've known that Inaho will be alive for a while now. They said that it went through his eye socket which explains the new eye he got lol. While it's true that he shouldn't have survived considering they had to get back underground to do the surgery and he lost a lot of blood (maybe he had enough time or something, who knows), I prefer that he stayed alive. My favourite character and I like how he stays calm and analyzes the situation just like how he took down the kataphrakt in today's episode. Here's to Inaho kicking Slaine's ass in an upcoming episode. Wouldn't be surprised if the princess wakes out of the coma if Inaho ever gets onboard their ship lol.
As for aldnoah, seems that blood is key since it was indirectly mentioned by his sister. I'm not sure how he managed to turn it on though, maybe the ones on his clothes? That or somehow, that time he saved the princess when she was choked was the key here.
