@ Ggultra2764 - I know you buy a ton of shows, so I'm curious as to what sort of physical backlog you have. Do you have a sense of what percentage of the shows you own that you've actually watched? I've got a terrible watched percentage. I have several hundred titles and I think I'm only around 20% in terms of having watched them.

Exactly eleven titles. Have six that are individual films, three that are part of a film trilogy (Laughing Under the Clouds), and two that are part of the Martian Successor Nadesico set I recently bought that I've yet to see (Prince of Darkness and Gekigengar III). Though that number will eventually pop up to twelve, as I still have the Digimon: Last Evolution movie on pre-order that should be getting sent my way this week.
I've actually been on somewhat of a hiatus from viewing older anime of late, as I wanted to dabble into a retrospective project with watching and reviewing all the mainline Disney animated films that I wanted to dabble into for a while and been involved with over the past month. I'm still following current titles. Just any older stuff, I'm putting on the back burner until I get the retrospective completed.

Man, I am super impressed. So you are one of the smart collectors who actually watches the stuff they buy instead of putting together a mass of dust-collecting items. Kudos!

Used to be the type that collected titles I've yet to watch and let sit around for months until I'd watch them up to recently. Last year around this time, I winded up selling a decent chunk of my collection off since I was tight on money and needed it to keep afloat. Currently, I'm attempting to replenish my collection with titles I've seen in the past and that I enjoyed. Still plan to buy up the occasional title to dabble into whenever I feel like getting around to seeing it. But I plan to stock up the majority of my shelves with older titles I enjoyed from the past for right now.

Finally decided on getting the LE for ID: Invaded. There aren't many shows anymore that I like enough to buy, but this show is in my Top 5 for 2020.

Just bought a lot of Blu-Rays off eBay for $125
Own a couple already, but what I don't keep, I'll resell... and one would sell for 1/3 to 1/2 of what I paid for the lot.
Colorful on Blu-Ray,
Just yesterday I was looking at my old Amazon wishlist and feeling sorry that I never bought this when it was in print. Especially since they're being listed for $70+ on eBay now
...though comps show they actually sell around $40
(Prime Day sucked, All I got was IT Crowd: The Complete Series and I bet it was for a pretty typical sale price)
May also keep, or watch once and decide:
Mirai on Blu-Ray + DVD,
Napping Princess on Blu-Ray + DVD,
Okko’s INN on Blu-Ray + DVD,
HAL on Blu-Ray + DVD,
LU Over The Wall on Blu-Ray + DVD
Own these and could lot up and resell for maybe $60+ (haven't researched) but depending on what they're like, may keep these G-Kids versions and sell my Disney versions of the Jibblies.
Mary and The Witch’s Flower on Blu-Ray + DVD,
Whisper Of The Heart on Blu-Ray + DVD,
Howl’s Moving Castle on Blu-Ray + DVD,
Spirited Away on Blu-Ray + DVD,
The Girl Who Leapt Through Time on Blu-Ray + DVD.

Picked up Prince Freya Vol. 3 and The Demon Prince of Momochi House Vol. 16 today. I think I'm going to re-read Momochi House all the way through before I read the final volume, though.

A couple years ago I also bought up the TV series at a very reasonable price. 4 were from a 2nd & Charles BOGO sale and the other 3 were from different eBay sellers getting rid of their singles.
