School Rumble Nigakki ~DX Pack~

After searching for a while on ebay for low-priced anime games, I noticed that the american amazon store had limited editions of these for extremely low prices (10-20$). These are sold by japanese retailers and as the packages are usually sent på SAL (takes about 1 month to reach the destination), the shipping cost is very low.

I brought a lot of limited editions after noticing this, so my next posts will contain the items I've received. First out is "School Rumble Nigakki", a visual novel for PS2 based on the popular school comedy series by Jin Kobayashi. It's the story of a class trip to the beach gone horribly wrong after having visited a haunted house...!  The full, awfully long title is: "School Rumble Nigakki: Kyoufu no (?) Natsu Gasshuku! Yokan ni Yuurei gen ru!? Otakara wo Megutte Makkou Shoubu!!! no maki"

The contents in this box are few, but still noteworthy. It features a special box (of course), a drama cd, some stickers and an artbook containing everything from sketches to character profiles. The game itself is avarage, but it should be interesting to fans of the show as long as you can understand the language. Every playthrough is only 2 hours long, but as the game is propped full of CG and alternative story lines led by your own choices, it's sure to last for a good while if you're a completist. 

                                  The front of the box. Simple and plain, with great artwork as well

The back of the box. Mentions what the box contains, as well as
a plot summary for the game, together with screenshots.

The side of the box. The box has been in sunlight for too long...

An artbook with different kinds of content. 
Harima as a naked angel on the front.

                                    An original short story featuring the School Rumble characters
           
                                  Enviromental artwork. These are used as backgrounds in the game

                                                       Some character sketches in full color

A bunch of character profiles. These are my favorites.

                                 A 12-minute long special drama CD. A story about the gang visiting
                                          an abandoned mansion and experiencing creepy events.

                                       The back of the drama CD. Resolution turned out horrible.

Two stickers bundled together with the drama CD. All that
glitter makes it look girly
