How weird. I was expecting there to be a really big downpour this afternoon, but I managed to get to the mall and back within two hours before anything bad happened. It’s still pretty cloudy outside, but there hasn’t been much rain yet here.

From today’s excursion, I managed to salvage Mai-HiME Vol. 6, Mai-Otome Vol. 3, and box sets for Full Metal Panic! and Gunslinger Girl. Suffice to say my DVD player will be very busy this week. In hindsight, I probably could have saved myself money by grabbing the Gunslinger Girl episodes individually from iTunes…they only cost $2 there. They’d probably be gone within a few months, though, so I think getting the actual DVDs might be better for me in the long run.

On the literature side, I got the Azumanga Daioh omnibus, which packs all four volumes of the manga into one gigantic 600+ book. It’s drawn in yonkoma (four-cell comic) format, which should still make it an easy read. Along with that, I also picked up Ouran High School Host Club Vol. 4 (in anticipation of Friday’s announcement of the anime version’s release) and Chibi Vampire Vol. 2 (while simultaneously lamenting Geneon’s collapse, which left the anime version of Karin unfinished). No boredom for me this week, no, sir!
