I don't have the game yet and won't get to play it for a while I'm sure, but your initial comments on why you haven't played previous Ace Combat games but decided on this one mirror my own experience so it's really good to read how much you enjoyed the game. :)

I might misremember as I haven't played the game in a while, but I don't think even Miku has anything said at the start of a race when you normally get the exchange with your rival. She has the little quips while playing when doing tricks and such that none of the other additional characters...

The lack of Ulala has been really disappointing, and them showing a Space Channel 5 themed section on the Segaland track just made that feel even worse. I've felt that both the free and paid DLC characters have been a really mixed bag. I also thought Megaman and Pac-Man were fine, TMNT was ok...

Arrow has put up a subtitled trailer for Pedicab Driver. This is the originaltrailer; not one showing their restoration:

While fairly uncommon, LPs are sometimes done at 45 RPM if feasible from a time length standpoint because the sound quality can be better. The two sides not being the same speed is not something I remember seeing before though. There have been some audiophile pressings of things like classic...

The second movie is pretty standalone. My personal bias is I like both movies more than the series. I own the movies but do not own the series. I have watched all of it but felt it was too expensive to buy for how I feel about it. I missed getting the complete series from DiabolikDVD when they...

The first movie is a retelling of the story of the TV series. It was directed by Rintarou so the experience is fairly different. I think the tone is much darker and there really isn't any comedy relief like there is in the series. Since it's obviously shorter than the series, all of the...

Ooh, thanks for that. I got the previous movie, Scarlet Bond in its Japanese release as it has English subtitles which I see this one does too. I didn't know this even existed until seeing your post; I'll put it in my next CDJapan order.

Or, he could just put us on the ignore list if he's bothered so much, like I did with him many months ago, instead of this continued backseat moderation. I don't complain about his posts; I just don't read them. :rolleyes: Vinyl is a big part of anime collecting these days, and it isn't much...

Wow, I didn't realize Gold of Babylon is OOP. I know DIscotek has let the individual TV specials go OOP because they're doing them in sets now...which is annoying since they didn't finish them that way so people like me who bought the individual releases can't complete the set without rebuying...

Cat III isn't my thing, but those look like really nice packages with really good cover art too.

Indeed that is true as well. Even with the jewel cases it seems like the plastic is more clear without imperfections.

Whenever possible back then, I used to buy Japanese vinyl, even for western artists as the quality was consistently better with much quieter backgrounds, flat records that weren't warped, and so on. When playing older records that have been played enough to have wear, on something newer or...

Hah, I recognize that cabinet; it's a CWD (Custom Woodworking and Design) cabinet; a company that I assume no longer exists. I had two of those same cabinets, though I didn't have the drawer, along with a lowboy cabinet that held a CRT monitor, and a base that all the pieces fit onto so it...

There might be some kind of licensing issue with Gunsmith Cats, as it's the only one of the AnimEigo blu-ray kickstarters that has not gotten a rerelease under AnimEigo's new ownership.
