UK Anime Blu-ray & DVD Bargains

they’re still pushing that red carpet scam.

I fail to see how it is a scam.

I saw the first season of Familiar of Zero recently and really hated the protagonist. He was basically isekaid with magic, almost instantly accepts that his role in life from then on is to be spat on by aristocracy, voluntarily becomes tsundere girl's working slave and willfully puts up with everyone's crap for the rest of the show. Jesus dude have SOME self respect.

Tried it myself as well and wasn't a fan either.

Don't think I got past the first few eps!

 

[ActionFaust]

Not watched the series but it's funny seeing the reaction to it as this is one of the biggest influences on the isekai genre. Many writers like Re:Zero's Tappei Nagatsuki got their start writing Familiar of Zero fanfiction.

I guess many writers thought they could do better lol. Like the creation of the Tim Tam.

Spirited Away is down to £8 at Amazon. The lowest I’ve seen a Ghibli BD.

[Oldmario]

wonder if they're clearing stock and moving the brand to that new company

New company doing Ghibli?

 

[Oldmario]

New company doing Ghibli?

they're called Elysian Film Group, it's the guy from studio canal that did the ghibli stuff that left and made his own company, annoyingly too they're doing away with the spine numbering on their Earwig release

I see thanks. I wonder if this might mean a reprint of steel books if I'm lucky.

 

[Yami]

He may have left, but the licence will surely still be with Canal. And I can't imagine them giving it up unless Elysian has some serious cash behind it.

Punchline's actually pretty good and I'd recommend it

 

[João Gomes]

Is Punchline better as an anime or as a game? I've been willing to buy it for a while now but still don't know which version I should get

I have not played the game only watched the anime, sorry I can't be more help with your decision! (I'm just not much of a gamer)

They've different endings. The anime doesn't follow the good ending iirc.

 

[Luna]

I've watched some play through snippets of the game.It has an entirely diffrent ending. Also reused anime footage on a lot of places, but also mixes it with some 3D gamey figurines. It wasn't aesthetically as pleasant to watch with the style inconsistencies, but the alternate ending wasn't too uninteresting coming from the anime.

I couldn't tell you anything about the game, João, but I rate the anime very highly, for what it's worth.
