Topic: UY Series Boxset??

[Superchick24]

Hey..i was just wondering if anyone knew if Urusei Yatsura had the tv series in a dvd boxset?? I know Animego sells the dvds seperately like every 4 episodes on one disc. It just seems more expensive to buy them that way then just getting it all on a boxset. I would hope the boxset would contain the movies and ova's as well. Anyway...thanks if you have any info you can give me.

With UruseiYatsura DVD's: what you see is what you get. There aren't a lot of choices available 25 years on. Thankfully, AnimEigo has made the DVD's much more affordable @ $7.99 each.

When I started buying them (through AnimEigo), they were $23.99 each. Box Sets made sense (and cents) then. With the prices this low, the Box Set concept has precious little merit (in fact, at $7.99, individual DVD's are less expensive than the Box Set price).

Thanks for the info...I appreciate it. I am gonna start purchasing them. Just thought i would ask first.  Appreciate the help.
Oh btw i found this site on the internet which is a fan based website based on Toshio Furukawa (Ataru Moroboshi) Only problem is its all in Japanese. If anyone here speaks or reads japanese im sure they could get insight to who the real person behined the voice is. Anyway it is nice to look at the family pictures and stuff. Maybe anyone who wants to will enjoy it as well. heres the link : http://www.topio.jp/ If the link doesnt work for some reason let me know and i will check into another way to look at the site. Enjoy!

You're welcome, and thanks for the link to Toshio's website. I almost teared up when I discovered his longtime doggie companion was named ... Ataru.


Ataru Furukawa

Sadly, Ataru Furukawa departed on May 12th 2008. As Ataru Moroboshi is for all us today and forever,  little Ataru Furukawa was a source of joy for his master, Toshio Furukawa.

aww too cute...I have a doggie companion of my own so i can understand his loss. Is there any way for you or anyone who can understand japanese that can translate what he writes in his diaries or info on pics he posts. I sure other fans would really appreciate it i know i would. That picture is too cute. What type of breed is it??
