UNBOXING: CrunchyRoll Box, May 2018




This unboxing is a little different from something I've gotten before. 

I was super excited to find out CrunchyRoll would be coming out with 
a box full of anime goodies and that Hot Topic would be carrying them.

I didn't expect to find them; they seemed to sell out pretty fast. But then one day I 
was lucky enough to find just one more box in a Hot Topic store that was a 
little further than my local.

So, let's get to the unboxing...
