So I Know I Don’t Post Here A Ton But If No One Hears From Me On Here For The Next Few Weeks, Here’s

Just so people in the US know, Hulu will be raising their subscription price next Monday, when Bleach: The Thousand-Year Blood War premieres. I signed up for the ad plan which is currently $6.99 and will be $7.99 on October 10th. I assume the no ads plan will be similar. I know this isn’t a huge price increase but I still think it’s worth mentioning. So get your free trials while you can.

Cool Bleach Stuff That I’ve Found Working at Vintage Stock

Alright, so I’ve been working at Vintage Stock for about five months now and from time to time we’ll get in some pretty neat stuff, whether it’s from corporate or a customer selling us stuff. Today, I’d like to highlight some of the Bleach stuff that we’ve gotten in. It ranges from really cool to funny to strange. Here we go!

First up:

This sick Hollow Ichigo mask. Bought this in from a customer. Cost $4.99. Immediately bought it for myself. It’s made of plastic so it’s not super high quality but it’s still pretty sick. Of course, like a week or two later, corporate sent us this:

I’m not 100% what material this one was made from but it was much higher quality. Cost $29.99. A customer bought it within a few days. I’m not too upset losing out on this one since I already have the other one for much cheaper. On to other things!

For context, I’m saying “Oh no”, because I know I’m going to buy this later. I actually didn’t though. I bought this one instead.

It was worth it. 😊 Anyway, at Vintage Stock we sell all manner of collectibles, DVDs, video games, and more. This includes figures, of course. So when we got this one in:

I knew I needed her immediately. I actually didn’t have any Bleach figures yet so this was pretty nice. We also had figures of Ichigo when he gets his new Zangetsu and Uryu in his Sternritter uniform but those got bought pretty quickly. We also have a couple of pre-owned figures. And, man. Are they funny.

I don’t know what’s funnier. Renji getting Mike Wazowskied twice or Byakuya costing ten dollars more. Anywho:

Obilgatory Funko photo. I don’t like Funko Pops. The only ones I own are gifts, aside from a Baby Groot one my wife and I bought after the first Guardians of the Galaxy movie came out. However, this one is kinda neat. Especially since it glows in the dark. Is it worth $59.99? Absolutely not. At least for me. Last thing on this list is DVDs. We actually bought in several box sets this evening.

Pretty standard stuff. We also already have Bleach DVDs in stock but they’re a bit… different.

Notice how it says, “Chapter 325-366,” the final episodes of the first anime, but the art is everyone in their season one looks. Also notice the art on the DVD on the right.

That, my friends, is fanart. We have bootleg Bleach boxsets for sale. 😂🤣 This was what inspired me to make this post in the first place but I wanted to wait until we got more stuff in. Here’s hoping I get more neat Bleach stuff in my store.

Most people on Halloween: going to parties, getting into costume, trick or treating.

My wife and I this Halloween: splitting a CBD gummy, making pigs in a blanket, wings, and pizza rolls, playing Luigi’s Mansion 3.

Happy Halloween everybody! Be safe!

Just something cute I wanted to share. I was putting on the newest Bleach episode before going into work and my dog, Ammy (named after Amaterasu from Ōkami), decided to join me.

She left not long after the opening finished because she wanted to lay in bed while waiting for my wife to get out of the shower. I did catch her looking at the screen a bunch when we watched Dan Da Dan the other day so maybe that’s more her show.

Y’know, sometimes you log into Facebook and you get the weirdest ads. Like this.

I have so many questions about this ad. Like why is a One Piece quote being used to advertise an article of clothing based on Bleach? I checked their website, they have One Piece merch. Why not use that in the ad? Though that doesn’t really matter as Luffy has never said this. This is not a real quote. I get that it’s just another anime clothing store you can find anywhere on the internet but it’s befuddling. And funny. On another note, Barragan is an interesting pick as the rep for this ad. I would’ve picked Grimmjow or Ulquiorra, personally, but oh well. And yes, they sell mesh shorts for both of those characters too.

I GOT NEW GLASSES! FOR THE FIRST TIME IN SIX YEARS! (I think.)

I have desperately needed to update my glasses for a while now. I normally wear contacts but sometimes it’s nice to just wake up and not have to stick tiny lenes on my eyes. Anyway, it’s nice to have glasses I can actually see clearly out of. My previous glasses hadn’t been changed since I got them and my eyes have definitely changed since then. Hooray!

Well, it took four and a half years but I finally caught COVID. It’s just mild symptoms but I’ll still need to isolate for about a week. Hopefully it’ll pass pretty quickly. In the meantime, let’s look at the positives. I’ve got a backlog of games and anime to work through so that’ll be fun.

Man. I really just want to play Scarlet. I want to meet a bunch of new Pokémon and have a great time. Unfortunately, my double pack is getting delivered so I can’t play it right away on Friday. Got the double pack because my wife and I both love Pokémon. And this way we can trade version exclusives! Really should’ve ordered it for pickup. Oh well. I’m going Ninja Sex Party in concert tomorrow so that’ll tide me over. And if the games take a while to come in I can just watch the new episode of the Bleach dub. It’s been pretty good so far. I’m starting to ramble a bit, aren’t I? Anyway, I’m excited for Pokémon and I can’t wait! :D
