Cardcaptor Sakura on blu-ray

I just preordered what I think might be the most expensive anime box set I've ever bought.

It's the whole of Cardcaptor Sakura, on blu-ray. Discounted on Rightstuf, but still the equivalent of over £100. (It will probably be more like £150 when shipping and customs charges are added. I should probably think about getting a dedicated region-free blu-ray player as well...)

I really like that series. It's a super-cute magical girl series, where everyone is friendly - even the monsters.

It shows many, many kinds of love, and not as a weird taboo thing, which I think is good to have in a show for kids.

It also made me love takoyaki before I had even seen or tasted it.

I hope NIS America do a great job on this box set. It comes out in August.
