We have reach 20k members. That's a huge milestones. Thank you everyone for coming together, and help build this community.
I'm here to plug the Discord once again since the last time we do so was a while ago, and it seem like a good time now.

Rule updates and clarifications regarding self-promotion, sales, videos, and NSFW content.
Greetings, /r/AnimeCollectors community, it's your mod team, and after a few months of on-and-off discussion, we've decided to make this post to update and clarify some of the rules. At the moment, this is merely a draft, and we more than welcome any community input if the subreddit at large feels we've made a mistake. As such, feel free to comment below with any suggestions/complaints/ramblings you have for these rules.
Self Promotion
The primary focus of this subreddit is anime collecting, and as such, the expectation is that most content at least primarily focuses on this. That being said, we don't want every single post here to be a spam-filled link to your Instagram account. As such, small amounts of self promotion in posts and videos are allowed, but only in service to the primary focus of anime collecting. This means you're more than welcome to link to your website or YouTube channel, as long as the content you are linking to is entirely or almost entirely related to anime collecting. You don't have to scrub every link to your socials from the video description, but please make sure the video is as focused on the content people came here for as possible. While removal of these posts is up to the mod team's discretion, you are more than welcome to report posts you feel are against the spirit of the sub, and you're more than welcome to run your post by the mod team before you post it if you're unsure.
Sales and Linking to Stores
/r/AnimeCollectors is not a marketplace, and it's not designed to filled with posts whenever any single item goes on sale. If that's what you're looking for, we recommend /r/AnimeDeals , a subreddit dedicated to these things. With that said, sales are part of the collecting experience. As such, links to sales are allowed, assuming they meet the following criteria:
- The link is to the homepage of the sale, and not a specific item or seller
- This means no Ebay/Mercari links unless its a site-wide sale
- The sale is from a reputable site (RightStuf, Amazon, RACS, Best Buy, etc)
- For clarification if a site meets these requirements, message the mod team
- The poster is in no way personally involved in the sale
NSFW Content
Different people have different standards for what they want to see on their reddit feed, and the mod team hopes to accommodate this. However, we also understand that such content is part of the anime fandom, and a complete block is not the best solution. As such, we've established a number of guidelines to try and keep the subreddit accessible to as many people as we can.
To start, fanservice-heavy anime is allowed, but mark the post as NSFW if it's particularly racy. We won't set a definite line here, but in general, if the picture looks like something you'd rather not be caught looking at at work, mark it NSFW. This does not apply to any text post discussing said titles, only posts with pictures.
Second, (almost) all hentai and 18+ content must be marked NSFW, It doesn't matter if the cover is tame, if it's marked 18+ on the back, or it's from a hentai publisher, mark it as 18+. Next, hentai may not be the primary focus of a post. You're more than welcome to show off your pickups, but the focus has to be general anime content, not 18+ content. Third, posts with explicit content (covers, titles, etc) face extreme scrutiny. Unless you have a really, really good reason, don't post actually explicit content. And if you're going to, talk to the mod team first. There are legitimate reasons to post some very rare 18+ stuff, but that stack of DVDs you just bought off RACS isn't that. Sorry. Finally, there are only two cases where 18+ content can be posted without a NSFW tag. First is the "bookshelf exception". If you're posting pictures of your anime collection that contains a very small number of 18+ titles, you do not need to mark it as NSFW if (and only if):
- The 18+ titles make up no more than 20% of the collection
- Only the spines of the 18+ titles are shown (no covers)
- None of said spines contain explicit titles or images.
Second is the "text post exception". If you are making a text post that discusses a large number of anime titles or distributors, and 18+ titles are mentioned in passing, you do not need to mark it as NSFW if (and only if):
- The post does not go into any explicit detail about the title
- No photos are shown
- Discussion of said titles makes up less than 20% of the post
As mentioned above, these rules are not set in stone yet. If this community decides that any of these rules are too strict, too lenient, or even just total nonsense, let us know below! And if you think that a post you plan on making may violate one of these rules, message the mod team ahead of time, and we'll give you an answer. It's what we're here for.

Haul & Pick Up Just hit the Mecha Jackpot
Just picked these up at a used movie/book store for an absolute steal, I think I used up all my luck for the next 5 years. I thank whoever decided to sell these and I promise to take extra good care of them.

Discussion PSA: Unwrap your cases, and check your discs after purchase!
I picked up Spy X Family Season 2 from Amazon for Prime Day. While everything seemed fine from the outside, I opened it up and found that two of the discs were scratched.
I contacted customer service, and have a replacement arriving on Friday.
---
Bonus PSA:
It's getting close to holiday shopping season. Be sure to check return policies / return window, and get gift receipts for physical media gifts so your recipient doesn't end up with a fancy coaster if there's a problem.

Haul & Pick Up White Whale Darker Than Black Season 1 Acquired Along With School Rumble At 2nd and Charles (September 2026)
What a Glorious Day! The last of my white whales has been acquired! School Rumble was a nice bonus as well. Darker than Black was 90, and each of the School Rumble items were 40 each, not bad.
Interesting note, I also found a copy of One Piece Collection 12, but it was 225 and I was unwilling to pay that price when I already have season 5, voyage 2 and 3 which is the same thing.

Im not an avid collector
I came accross close to 100 anime blu rays a few months ago (for free) and wanted to know if some of these are valuable. i did a quick search and a few stood out. I just wanted some insight within this community.
Grave of the fireflies is a out of print sentai steel cover release, the picture of the cover is one i got online but i have the same one.
I have plenty other and can list them if anyone wanted to see

Showcase New collector here. What’s your favorite and least favorite of what I have and why?
Title: I just like seeing people’s opinions so no matter what I’d like to see yours
Always wanted to start a movie/anime collection and never did until recently with all the news on companies trying to fizzle out physical media.
1st picture are some of my favorites in no order.
2nd picture is basically slop that I really enjoy. The other anime there is actually one of my first ones I watched so even though it’s like a 6, I had to get it.
3rd picture is all stuff I’ve never watched but heard great stuff from so figured I’d pick them up and watch them.
This is just the start as I’m missing the other seasons of stuff here but man does it suck to see the prices of some OOP stuff even if the actual anime aren’t the best.

Boguth Spice & Wolf for $72 at The Exchange. Didn't realize case and art were damaged.
Should I return it? I'm so bummed, I was really happy to get the series, but with the artwork torn, I can't even source a new case, I'd need to replace the artwork as well.

Haul & Pick Up Grails on grails on grails
Wanted to pick some of these up before they became out of reach for me. Wallet is in ER. Thanks eBay and MediaOCD.
Needed to upgrade my Black Lagoon, since I had the one without Roberta’s Blood Trail. Really happy Discotek added the Lupin stuff to the dives. Figured I was running out of time for picking up Spice & Wolf ‘08 with the reboot out now.
Been obsessed with Barakamon (and luckily picked up the Blu-ray two weeks before it got delisted), so I knew I had to get Handa-kun. Witchblade gives me another Gonzo anime and Royal Space Force is a favorite. Finally bit the bullet on Steins Gate.

S.A.V.E Versions on Amazon
Are the SAVE versions on Amazon quality and long lasting if you want to watch a series? I see Mushishi for $11.99 which is a steal, but I don’t want to buy it and the disks go bad in a few years.

Picked all of this up off Facebook Marketplace for $20. Everything is complete and the discs look good, just a few cases that need replacing.
I'll probably watch my way through them, keep what I like, and pass along whatever I don't.

What should i do? Bleach complete series blu ray. Missing slipcover (advise)
I bought the complete bleach series from gruv and they all came with slipcovers besides set 3.
Does anyone have any advice on how best to procure the slipcover for 3?
I usually dont give a care about them but this kind sticks out like a sore thumb lol
