Not only am I bored, but I want to see how many DVDs I have compared to others. I've been been into anime for less than a year, so I want to get an idea of my collection compares.

25 DVDs (26 in a few hours)
Also I have the 8 disc sets of Eva and Gasaraki.
and thats just the anime stuff, I have Season 1 & 2 of the Simpsons.

Ummm, a lot. Razz If I go by just each DVD (I have a lot of box sets.), the last count was 72, but that was before I got back to the States. It has grown larger. Yes, it out number live action DVD (around 50.)

Oh yes, and my manga collection. It's around 53 (I have a ton of Animerican Extra and Mixx Zines. Too many to count.) Razz

A nearly-complete list of the videos in my collection can be found here:
http://www.animenfo.com/myanimedb.php?userid=891

I have a few miscellaneous items that aren't on the list because the site's database didn't have a relevant listing for them (Twin Signal, and my Sailor Moon fansubs for example) but otherwise it's pretty accurate.

I have 77. It would be a lot larger, but paying for school really sucks and really saps money away from anime, especially since I just graduated and have now decided to go back to school for another degree. But when that's done, I'll hopefully be able to get a more stable job than my current degree has gotten me and allow my collection to grow very fast.

No where near Cookie's collection or Chris Beveridge's collection, but fairly decent:

My Anime:

The leftmost rack is my non-anime music CD Collection.
There are a couple DVD missing, and it doesn't include the sizeable number of screaners that I have for review purposes.
Also not shown is my box of VHS tapes... maybe I should just toss those.

My Manga:

These are in English and in French. (and 3 in Japanese and 1 in Chinese)
The Picture up top is an Original Cel from BGC 2040, my one and only Cel.
Not Shown is the magazine pile on the bottom shelves of this book case.

Mines tiny, only about 10 DVD's and 8 VHS's. But that doesn't count the number of fansubs I've destroyed in the past few years, nor does it account for the fact that I'm a preferred customer of Retropolis of Lakewood, possibly the biggest anime rental shop in all of Ohio. Any time I want to get something to watch, I pay the two bucks to rent it from them. The stuff I buy is the stuff I really love. And I'm working on collecting, too.

I have about 6 DVDs right now, but since I'm broke I usually have to sell the crap that I don't like or don't watch anymore to buy more stuff... that I will not like or watch after 3 times.

It's a vicious cycle.
