people do realize there's absolutely nothing out of the ordinary regarding the pricing of this set right?

that's a good idea, and actually a very basic principle of economics. Cent & Yen are just terms used to label the currency, they each represent the most basic form of monetary value and each hold the same purchasing power in their home territory.

And this is why I've been turned into a scumbag torrent user. I guess I gotta support the show through figure purchases.

I don't like blue-ray, it looks to real to me

This show was filmed with real actors in real, handmade costumes. So yeah, there's a bit of realness there.

*yes, I realize I'm being a snarky bastard. Couldn't resist. :) *

Much as I love W, no way would I pay that much for just sixteen damn episodes...

So about a dollar an episode give or take?

Not really. Unless it actually comes with 222 episodes instead of 16.

Whoa I read the Yen wrong. Fuuuu.

MAybe not to you, but if I had a full time job, I would be buying them. I think W is one of the best KR series of all time.

That is the whole point.

Oh yeah, I agree...

But $222 for 16 episodes?
