About MARIA WATCHES OVER US (Maria-sama ga Miteru) - Season 1When Yumi Fukuzawa entered the Lillian Girls' Academy, a prestigious all-girls Catholic school in Tokyo, she never imagined she would catch the eye of beautiful and demure Sachiko Ogasawara, one of the school's most popular students. Now Sachiko has offered to be Yumi's soeur -- her "sister" and guide for all her years at the academy. The whole idea has Yumi completely flustered: After all, they hardly know each other! The entire campus is abuzz with rumors about the two of them, but Yumi is conflicted over accepting Sachiko's offer. While she admires Sachiko, being her soeur would also mean constantly being at the center of the entire school's attention! Contains the complete 13-episode first season, plus the Season 1 "specials." MARIA WATCHES OVER US (Maria-sama ga Miteru) - Season 1 DVD Collection

This is a totally blind buy (unless you count a few screencaps), yet your almost-understated sales-pitch-disguised-as-an-announcement, combined with the smothering love exuded by fans, have managed to get a pre-order out of me, even though I said I could wait for a Nozomi sale, no matter how far off the next one might be.
And since I'm an obsessive completionist, I'll probably place orders for boxes 2 and 3 as soon as I have other things to pre-order with nearby release dates.
You win again, Alison. <shake object="fist" implication="someday..."/>

I've never seen this show, but my sources tell me it's well worth the watch. And I trust my sources. So I decided to preorder all three!

Will the first episode being going up anywhere for preview before the release of the first set? I admit I'm deathly curious to see how the translation was handled.

I was thinking more along the lines of free preview.  I don't really like Otaku USA, not enough to spend money on it, I'm just curious about the subtitles. Which will in no way determine my buying, I should point out. Unless they're 4Kids bad, this show is mine.

We've done previews on IGN and on DVD with both OTAKU USA and the old Newtype. (It's something upon which I place a priority, especially with the set-only releases.) Keep an eye on the forums, newsfeeds and Twitter.

Keep an eye on the forums, newsfeeds and Twitter. Alison's got us all Twitterpated. I'm looking forward to everything little thing that comes out for this show. I'm also hoping the anime will give it enough exposure that someone will finally release the manga and novels.

Yeah i havent gotten my shipping notice yet either xD. I guess it just means we have to wait longer to get it xD Did you order it by itself? Or with other items? (Sometimes the system holds shipments to wait for all -- or most -- of the items to arrive in our warehouse.)
