I disagreed with everybody complaining about its expense.

The first CLIP BOX was 9800yen. Since this box has about twice the content, it should only cost double the first one (about 19600yen for DVD and 20600yen for BD), not far off the RRP.

Imho, considering a normal Japanese video release is about 5000yen, the price is not relatively expensive. Anime box sets are JUST as expensive, if not more. For example Nadia, The Secret of Blue Water Blu-ray BOX is 48000yen. Tiger & Bunny (3 episodes) is 7000nen. Full seasons on BD are usually 23800 (26 episodes, 3 discs worth).

The target audience is Japanese consumers who are accustomed to Japanese pricing. NOT US.
