Don't order from Deep Discount DVD

In mid-February, in an attempt to save money, I ordered the third volume of Tsukihime from Deep Discount DVD, because it had the lowest price listed by comparison site DVD Price Search (and because attempts at finding volume 2 in stock at the local Target and Fry's proved fruitless).

I vaguely recall telling myself not to buy from them before, and now I remember why--shipping took forever.

It took about half a month for my order to finally be delivered, admist worries of whether or not the shipment had been lost, with no tracking info available. So I don't think I'll be ordering from them again.


At least I did finally get it, and as the third volume is the last in the series, have now finished the series. It's quite an intrigng story, so I was hoping that they may have produced follow-up stories for it. It doesn't seem likely--based on the collective info found on the web, the anime series is based on the Japanese adult computer game (H-game) of the same name, which was a graphic novel game with a branching story.

The way they ended the series in the anime, it doesn't seem likely they'll be able to do much in way of a sequel. Not without serious deployment of Deus ex Machina, at any rate.
