Yuri!!! on ICE: The Complete Series | |||||||||
Amazon | |||||||||
Rightstuf | |||||||||
Comments | Alex: The hit figure-skating anime from last year. The limited edition release comes in an chipboard collector’s box with 3 art cards and an artbook. |
Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “Yuri On Ice has gotten a lot of praise, from the writing to the incredibly excellent animation for the show’s figure skating sequences, which has put it on my to-watch list.” Blaine says, “I have only seen three of the four movies in the James Stewart collection, but those three are all great.”
I’ll be picking up Gotham by Gaslight because it looks interesting and, so far, everything the DC Animated team has done has been very good.
(Also, if this does well, I’m hoping to finally see Red Son on the screen)
