Wow, I really did pre-order the collection without realizing that it included the very thing I've been looking for from this series, lolz. I guess I just felt that the Blu-Ray discs themselves were worth the ￥36,000 that Amazon was charging. That collection is going to look really nice next to my copy of Garan no Dou signed by Kalafina, Kajiura Yuki, and Atsuhiro Iwakami.

Speaking of spending too much on a series, I was rewatching episode 5, and was reminded that I've been meaning to find a sword like the one Shiki used. Is the one in the movie based off an actual existing sword/sword-type? It looked very elegant yet simplistic. I'm probably no where near ready to pay the cost of a real authentic sword of that nature, but would give me some motivation in my kendo training.
