So I suppose, like you, I'll wait for the inevitable BD Box in a year or so for Horizon I and just purchase Horizon II now to support a third season. I guess it'll be similar to you having Strike Witches II and not Strike Witches I and catching up by getting the BD Box. I've never really imported in such a non-linear fashion before!
I would be curious to know, what exactly makes the "odds very high" or "inevitable" for this show to have a boxset? I want to get this show, like I previously said, both seasons in a boxset for each season... I can wait, that is no problem, but why do you think this one will have a boxset for each seasons at a later date?

While, I'm at it, how "high" are the odds for Yuru Yuri and why?
I suppose the reasons for the assumption of a BD Box being inevitable is because its becoming some kind of trend now. High selling BDs have nothing to lose if they get BD Boxes, if anything the company will earn more money for the BD Box than just selling the singles sell as they are, plus it adds interest to the series.

I think it's more possible with Horizon than YuruYuri though as Horizon is a very high selling series while YuruYuri is a pretty good selling series, but it's still possible for YuruYuri just not any time soon in my opinion.

I guess the problem with "will this get a BD Box when it already had BD singles?" is that there's no found criteria for if it'll get a BD Box other than another season is coming/has happened. Though if you're like to know my reasons for a Horizon BD Box it's because the LE BDs are out of print and only the REs are in print. They said they'd be reprinting the LE BDs but that has yet to happen.

But yeah, I don't really know. I guess it just "feels right" for Horizon to get a BD Box soon because of how popular it is. And YuruYuri seems like the kind of show which'll get a BD Box if it gets a third season in a year or two.
