Thanks for the deal, I've been wanting Excel Saga for a while and the $10 off $30 with Google Checkout and free shipping made me bite. Can't complain getting the boxset for $23 shipped.

FMP: Fumofu was 100% silly fun, without any of the serious episodes from the first series. Recommended if you liked the lighter parts of the first season.

Edit: and I second monkeypox8's recommendation of Kino's Journey if you like your anime thought-provoking

I can't recommend kino's journey enough. the animation isn't spectactular, but the characters and story are top-notch.

EDIT:

Don't forget to use the $10 off $30 with Google Checkout - will work over and over again. Thanks SScorpio00 for reminding me.

Anytime I put FMP Fumoffu in my basket, it denies me use of Google Checkout - says item does not qualify. WTF? Anyone else been able to order this - perhaps it's a preorder thing? (yes, I had other items so order was over $30). Every other item would go through by itself.)

Agreed, it was good. Don't be misled by the title, it's (roughly) modern psychics not sword & sorcery.

Zone of the Enders was good, and a nice deal at $25 for 6 DVDs, 26 episodes plus OVA.

Kino is out of stock, FMP and Elfen are preorders which from what fargus says could mean you can't use Google Checkout.

Also, don't be surprised if you see a mysterious $1.95 "handling" fee even with "free" shipping. They added it on to my order tonight.

FMP fumoffu is a good one, unfortunately R1 translators, as always ****** up translation. I very much prefer fansub.

Yup. Maybe these companies found out that fans aren't willing to pay $30 for a disc with 3 episodes.
