Finally got around to watching RIN Daughters of Mnemosyne!! I don't know why I waited so long to watch it. Really enjoyed it though. The sexual stuff was a little weird sometimes but overall it didn't bother me. I haven't bought any anime in a while except for High School of the Dead and am about to start that one. I'm looking to get back into building my anime collection and I'm not the most knowledgeable on the different series and was hoping I could get a few recommendations. I think Eden of the East is the next series I'll be getting. I guess I prefer the more mature series' if that helps to point me anywhere.

Nice, I just started Highschool of the Dead myself and loved the way the series begins My top recommendations would be Baccano and Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood!

Do most of you order your anime from RightStuf? Are there any other good sites? Amazon has most things but I'd like to be able to shop around.

Some shop at RightStuf. Others at Robert's Anime Corner Store and Amazon.com. It's whatever works for whether pricing is the main purchasing decision. Keep in mind though anime specific retailers will ship out anime earlier (usually around 1 to 2 weeks before the street date on some releases) than the likes of Amazon.com.

All 3 shows are great. I started HOTD as well and through the first 3 episodes I like it a lot.

Yeah, no doubt. I only wish they'd release the series in the US already.

Blu-ray.com's review is up if you haven't seen it already: link. Other than that as far as I know, the extras are still the same from what BEI Store listed. Nothing has been reported on a slip cover, so I would assume that's a no.

Sorry I couldn't be more help, but I did hold onto myself from explaining to you what Robotech actually IS, which would be needlessly complicated to someone new to the franchise.

YOU can watch it fine without seeing the robotech show. it also has some of the nicest asses on an anime ever.
