FWIW their response to my post was more reasonable than I'd expect from a troll. I don't know your prior interactions, but hopefully it was just a hasty misreading in a difficult and stressful time. This is bsky tho so I can't fault anyone for blocking early/often as is the culture here.

Yeah, that would be my guess. Probably counting tankobon/etc for the individual titles but the magazines for Jump. I do wonder how you would even count something like this Weekly Shonen Magazine/Weekly Shonen Sunday anniversary fig that's *primarily* but not exclusively Urusei Yatsura.

The takeaway makes some sense when you see the theater in context: that it's in what used to be SLO's Chinatown right next door to a restaurant with a "chop suey" sign (now a noodle house instead of a classic Chinese-American food place) and that there was more left in '88 when the theater opened. 😅

It was fun, and I'm glad it filled in to at least 10% capacity or so by showtime. For some reason I couldn't get Michael Cera out of my head when looking at Giancarlo Giannini in it tho. 😅

I agree. I certainly would never be interested in random ephemera that clearly had care and design put into it with recognizable branding and characters... (looks at General Products shopping bag from 1984 I snagged on Y!A a decade or so back) 😅
