Add to my List:
on Order:
DVD
-Rosario + Vampire Seasons 1 & 2
Yeah, thatâs why you should just use http://www.dvdaf.com/ for all your DVD listing needs instead. A link might not be as impressive as a text wall, but at least it saves you from the carpel tunnels. :lol:
Tell that to my database I spent weeks developing and inputting content to.
Well, backups are always a wise idea too. I have an Excel document, myself.
No alphabetical order?
Do you have all of Stellvia? Itâs not a series worth owning, sadly I found that out after 100s of dollars were spent on it, but this list says âstellvia foundationâ, which as I recall is the title of the first dvd of the 8.
For Vandread, a series that is worth owning, do you not have the ovas, since you listed the first and stages separately?
No hellsing ultimate?
Some import stuff on there baffled me for a second, I almost thought that I had somehow missed Sentaiâs release of the second Mardock movie on BD.
I will NEVER use Excel. I use 123 and Approach.

I made a point of noting that the list WAS NOT COMPLETE. Right at the very top.
Stellivia is an 8-disc set and I have all of them.
Vandread was sold as that way. First Stage and Second Stage were sold as separate series.
I have Hellsing Ultimate. I just didnât list it. I havenât gottent around to it.
Yeah, I saw that. It doesnât answer any of my questions, so I asked 'em. Sheesh, some people. 
So you donât have the Vandread OVAs?
I still donât see why you refer to Stellvia as âStellvia Foundationâ. The discs are labeled as âFoundation Xâ, where X is the volume number, but it isnât the title of the show. Which is why I considered âStellvia Foundationâ to be only the first volume. Itâs a tragedy that someone else out there also bought and watched the travesty that is Stellvia. It was the Fractale of the early 2000sâŚ

lolwut?
You kids. You are too young to remember a time when Microsoft was not the only game in town for Windows platform office-type software.
Just because I OWN them, doesnât mean I bought them. Some of them were gifts. I still havenât gotten around to watching them (Stellvia).
So after some messing around I realized it sure would not let me add anymore to the first post. So I did some modding and moved some post from a old thread no longer in use to give me some room. This thread being one of the oldest threads I made I could not find one old enough to post before the second post in the thread so I moved my collection to this post and the one below.

I liked WordPerfect back in the old days, now use OpenOffice.
I personally highly enjoyed Stellvia and its one of my favorites.
I like the ageism in the original post
If you want to be a Luddite and use antiquated software that was eclipsed by Excel and others 20-some-odd years ago, be my guestâŚas long as I donât have to open your files I donât care. Out of curiosity, do you use Alpha 5 for your personal database needs still, or will you accept other solutions?

Own but havenât watched??! Does not compute. :silly:
I donât know how you can enjoy Stellvia. Did you enjoy Fractale? The show started off with promise, became highly illogical, got to the point where it could only be described properly by profanity, and then ended exactly as it started. The only positive to come from it was the theme song. Iâm convinced it contained subliminal messaging to keep me watching that schlock as it certainly wasnât the plot or the characters, such as they were.
Has anyone managed to add Persona 4 to their blu-ray collection? Iâve noticed that RightStuf has been most unusually slow in shipping out my copy. Weâre ~3 weeks from street date, Iâve come to expect Sentai preorders placed with them to be in my hands by then. What gives? The early shipping is the #1 reason why I use RightStuf 
:ohmy:

Never heard of Fractale but guess what people can like things you donât. I happen to highly enjoy the characters and loved the story.
I just canât fathom this. The show went no where, it almost literally ended where it started. Scenario wise, it did. What did it accomplish? Nothing. Was there character development? Not really. Shoot, there were really only 2 characters, everyone else was just there for fluff, and those 2 characters were almost Shiji-level emo. Prozac was needed, in large quantities. You know it 
I didnât care for the âprogrammed, not pilotedâ ships, but I could have gotten behind them, as well as Koutaâs ridiculous CG-kaledoscope-vision-machine plot device, had the show retained its original (interesting) conflict. Sadly it kicked that conflict to the curb and replaced it with one that isnât worthy of the name. âThe aliens slaughtered our people. Theyâll rue the day, we wonât rest until we kill all the aliens!â âOh, sorry, you only nuked our space station because you were trying to communicate with us about some totally lame pending disaster that you canât solve? Well, in that case, weâll totally give you a pass on killing our fellow humans. Then weâll just accept that you aliens, despite your vastly superior technology, couldnât resolve the crisis by yourselves and couldnât figure out how to communicate non-lethally with humanity for far too longâ
I think Carrie Savage is in the dub and even that couldnât save it. Itâs been the better part of a decade and Iâm still disappointed by the show. It should have been awesome. Why couldnât it have been awesome?
At the very least, why couldnât Geneon have made a proper box for this? This was mentioned recently here, in another thread, but digging out my perpetually unboxed Stellvia DVDs due to this thread has made me pine for a box again.
Well, getting back to something slightly more relevant to the thread (though Stellvia is in our collectionsâŚ), I literally just got confirmation of my Persona 4 blu-ray shipping. Just when I was about to start losing faith in RightStuf, they come through.
Hopefully Iâll get that by the weekend. Nice

You should pay closer attention. I already stated that I use Approach. Are you old enough to have ever used dBase III/IV or Paradox? My 1-2-3 is less than 10 years old and it can still do a better job than the latest Excel. MS tried to copy 1-2-3 and did a lousy job of it. Only their OS preeminence made their crap marketable.

In case you havenât been paying attention, I have 100s of anime series and movies on DVD, Blu-ray, LD and VHS. I also have several THOUSAND movies and TV shows. I havenât had time to watch everything.
I went through my DVDs last night and made a list on http://miquelfire.dvdaf.com/owned/anime.
Anyway, list of DVDs I had before I hopped onto Anime Network:
- Armitage 2-Disc Set
- Armitage III OVA: Perfect Collection
- Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within - Special Edition
- Kikiâs Delivery Service
- Sonic the Hedgehog - The Movie
- Spirited Away
- Tenchi the Movie 1 - Tenchi Muyo in Love
And stuff I got this year, after I hopped onto Anime Network (in order of purchase, grouped by purchase groups, and counts for 2/3 of my Blu-Ray collection):
-
Infinite Stratos - Blu-ray
-
Secret World of Arrietty - Blu-ray
-
Princess Resurrection - Complete Collection
-
eX-Driver: The Movie
-
eX-Driver, Vol. 1 - Downshift
-
eX-Driver, Vol. 2 - Crossroads
-
Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos
-
Psychic Squad - Collection 1
-
Psychic Squad - Collection 2
-
UFO Ultramaiden Valkyrie OVA Special - Bridal Training (RS $1 Bargin Bin)
I manually entered a vast majority of my list (I think I was at a 1000 anime disc at the time) by hand using wordpad originally. Iâve tried several programs over the years really me keeping track by wordpad and DVDaf seems to work best for me. I use to actually do a price list of how much I spent against how much was original MSRP. That list got screwed when the original forums were hacked and I could not go back to get the last 4 months of prices I paid for stuff.
I say whatever works best for you is what you should stick with.
Also just for fun I have:
747 titles, 1319 discs in my Anime DVD Backlog
50 titles, 122 discs in my Anime Blu-ray Backlog
956 titles, 1655 discs in my Anime DVD watched list.
26 titles, 61 discs in my Anime Blu-ray watched list.
I just hit this big burn out a 4 or 5 years ago ,but because of all the deals that hit around that time I never stopped buying. So my Backlog just kept a growing. Rightstuf abundance/clearance and FYE stackable deals really made my collection grow faster then it should have. Iâm sure I have crap in there that I never should have bought ,but because I got stuff for like $4.00 a disc or stuff buy one get one free stacked with 50% off sales I bought it.lol
Sigh, ageism. The lame attempt to make oneself superior to others because they think theyâve gone around the sun a few more times.
Age doesnât necessarily preclude one from having used old programs. I unfortunately have used those. Some people have an unfortunate tendency to cling to the outdated technology that they know rather than embracing the superior more modern technology (something you obviously understand).

So? Thatâs hardly unique, having a great many titles on home video in a thread about collecting. Since youâre making claims of your advanced age, you should have had plenty of time to have watched the backlog. Thereâs little excuse for the ancient items in your backlog, the ones on laserdisc and VHS. Ageism
BTW, I think a great disservice has been done to humanity by those who believe that spreadsheets should be used to contain simple databases. Spreadsheets crunch numbers. If youâre using it to simply contain a giant list of anime series you ownâŚwhy?!!
As they say on the interwebs, âUr doinâ it wrongâ.
