My first box! July! Much excite! So ecstatic!

It was just luck that while scrolling Instagram an ad for “The Otaku Box” appeared and—having recently run into rather a lot of cash (insurance payout)—I thought “Why not‽”

And I am so glad I did. My first box arrived today and I couldn’t be more tickled pink at just what’s inside! Liz, you and your team are on point! This is a delightful treat and I can’t wait for next month.

I mean just look at this tee-shirt:

I already wore it out and got some appreciative glances.

The scroll I framed and mounted:


Although maybe I should’ve taken a warm iron to it first?

The light-up acrylic is really nifty:

I have no idea what anime or manga that is, but I do like how it looks.

And these figures are adorable:

My credenza needs many more!

Thank you so much for creating this charming resource. It’s exactly what I needed even though I never knew I needed it :laughing:

I remember i had the same feeling when i got my first box and still feel that way to now. The acrylic is Rias from Highschool DXD!

I dunno, I kinda like it framed all wrinkly. Gives it a historic feel.

That, “Ooh, I love my box!” feeling? It keeps happening, month after month!

I got the Anime Lootcrate for a few months and all but one was an utter disappointment. Too few items in the boxes, rarely anything I’d even want. I cancelled it as soon as I got my first Otaku Box and do not regret it.

I also got the Manga Box for awhile. It came with one random manga and a bunch of snacks, but those were 90% stuff I wouldn’t eat, so it got cancelled too.

Someone on here said they got Nihon Box so I’m going to give that one a try to see if it’s worth it.

I’m the one who gets the Nihon Box as well. if you want an example of what comes in the box I just did my review for August’s box on my Instagram (look up zoysite13 on Instagram). Here is a couple of sample pics of everything I got in my July and August Nihon Boxes.
The Nihon Box and Otaku Box are the only ones worth subscribing to, as I’ve tried many anime boxes out there.

Awesome. I appreciate the insight. I should get the September box as my first. Looking forward to it.

My first one just got shipped, and considering where it is coming from, I’m not expecting it until next month.

i’ll have to, someday, ook at nihon box. OtakuBox is my first box, as I only recently started to actively collect, and, sadly, can’t quite afford two boxes currently :smiley:
