Hang on let me just sell my kidneys first.

I don't need them right?

Jesus fucking christ almost a THOUSAND DOLLARS just for the original Kamen Rider on blu-ray. Get the fuck out of here Japan with your ridiculous pricing. I get that you're an island nation, so you have to import everything and blu-rays don't sell in your market, but jeez.

No one can defend this bullshit. For $1000, I could buy a PS4, Xbox One and almost a Wii U at new price.

Well that's a load of horse shit if I ever saw it.

Well, I guess I know the next series that's not gonna get updated subs :p

Man, it's going to be great to see this show in glorious HD!

Wait a minute...

Looks in wallet~ wowzers let me just get my stealing money from bank kit

Everyone's feelings right now...

Cool.

<Okay, really just came in here to see everyone's response to the price since everyone acts like this is the first their time learning about Japanese media prices.>

Yeah that's ridiculous; everyone's reactions are priceless though.

What's even more ridiculous is that the 1st set is the last one to come out according to the release dates on the main page :rolleyes

I was expecting 200-300 dollars but 1000? That's insane even for them.

I was thinking exactly the same thing :lol

Western release as a complete boxset for 40 bucks please.

On average, you're paying a solid ten dollars for each episode here.

That's like, nine dollars more than any episode of this show I've seen is worth. Maybe 31 was worth three bucks or so. Who knows.

Really does look like something that should be at most 60-70% of this price though.

Haha, same here.

So is this getting a fancy HD remastering done to it?

Welcome to the japanese home video market.

I am not surprised its that expensive so I have no reaction to this. Especially considering I would have never bought it no matter what it had cost. And honestly who on here had the intention of buying it in the first place?

Its actually not that insane when you take the ever Blu-Ray releases into account.

The Blu-Ray sets for Rider usually cost around 500 Dollars. So thats 500 Dollars for around 50 Episodes. The original Kamen Rider has almost double the amount of episodes so it was pretty obvious that its going to cost alot more than that.

How much do you think Japanese videos cost?

I paid 9800Y for each Zyu, Dai, Kaku, Ginga, Time, Flash, Oh. Rider Black, volumes I own. I paid 5800Y for each Aba, Magi, and Blade volume I own (not to mention I used to own Kabuto and 555). The Gokaiger BDs cost me 6800Y a piece.

My only experience is with anime dvds and imported games.


And guys I'm not pissed about this never was just amused that Japan prices it's dvds like it's still 2000.:p

Oh god :D :D

Seriously though, that's costly.
