Where did you preorder it from?

My copy of #4 is en route from TRSI and I expect it to be delivered on Thursday. /images/graemlins/cool.gif

I'm a bit mixed over receiving it because it marks the end (for now, at least /images/graemlins/wink.gif ) of one of my current favorite series, but I do want to see what happens.

I wonder if Comic Party Revolution has been licensed. /images/graemlins/wink.gif /images/graemlins/sdsmiley.gif

I guess we'll find out in about 10 days or so. /images/graemlins/devil.gif

Holding out for the complete box set, glad this series seems to be real fun though.

Your copy of #3 is still reserved? /images/graemlins/stunned0.gif

IIRC, that was back in late April/early May when it entered processing with another item and then was put back into "reserved status..

Has there been any shipment from that order at all since then?

If not, then the 45 day PSR should have been met and your order partially shipped by now. /images/graemlins/sweat200.gif

You're kidding, right? /images/graemlins/sweat200.gif

Or did you actually forgot about THIS (http://www.anime-expo.org/)? /images/graemlins/sdsmiley.gif

Anyway, Shawne mentioned (http://forums.animeondvd.com/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=region1&Number=536153& Forum=All_Forums&Words=Wait&Searchpage=0&Limit=25& Main=350374&Search=true&where=bodysub&Name=41&date range=1&newerval=1&newertype=m&olderval=&oldertype =&bodyprev=#Post536153) it recently in reference to TRSI, so I plan to pay close attention to what's going on that weekend. /images/graemlins/wink.gif

Then, there's the fact about his trip to Japan not too long ago. /images/graemlins/wink.gif

All I know is that something might be in the works and I'm hoping that Comic Party Revolution is a part of it.

Nope nothing else has been shipped from that order. So Comic 3 and Fruits Basket Manga 3 are just sitting there. I hope they ship soon. Just counted today is day 47.

Well officially the release date for 3 is 6/29 & 4 is 7/27. So actually a lot of places don't have three yet, let alone 4.

In this case instead of my usual habit of ordering TRSI anime from TRSI, I went with DDD; I know my fault...

Hmmmm, overall I would give this disc a B and the series between a B and a B+. It was good stuff but just felt hollow and incomplete..... I know there is ?another series? after this plus some manga but after 13 episodes I felt kinda blah. Not to mention that Kazuki was really freaking annoying, almost unbearably so, for 1 1/2 out of the four discs. I just wanted to slap him. What we didn't get enough was 1) shounen comedy romance 2) fanservice /images/graemlins/wink.gif 3) character development. What we did get was 1) Annoying, assholish lead 2) too many characters introduced then forgotten 3) Annoying, sidekick. I'm not saying I didn't enjoy Comic Party because I really did, I actually loved all the female characters, but 13 episodes plus 4 mini-episodes (which contained more fanservice in 25 minutes than the entire show) wasn't enough time to build any kind of interesting story. I can summarize the whole show in a few short lines. Not really a spoiler but I wanted to be safe. <span style='color:#dddddd;background:#dddddd'>Boy gets interest in a hobby. Boy fails at hobby. Boy becomes depressed. Friends help boy regain interest in hobby. Show ends......</span> A lot of shows can pull off being only 12 or 13 episodes long, this one couldn't

I really really enjoyed Comic Party. I'm probably going out on a limb here, but I'm going to put it in my top five anime series I've ever seen. Sure it was a litttle too short, and the sequel *should*

My Brothers and My Sisters! I give this show an A! Now comerades, watch it again and again. /images/graemlins/wink.gif
