    UK Anime Distributor MVM Entertainment Discussion Thread

    That’s a rather recent DOTW to repeat. Seems I bought S2 at that price in January (and S1 longer ago).

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    The French customers will presumably be in the same boat? As there’s no French subtitles either (it seems to be a multi-language disc requiring selection before the main menu loads). Added to the UK release, that’s likely quite a lot impacted. Or is there a fixed version over the channel? Just...

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    I was watching my copy of Yohane the Parhelion earlier, and (all) the shorts are missing subtitles (English or French), similar to the reports in the defective discs thread. @Hanners is there a fixed disc for this (I presume as it’s not exactly a minor mistake) - who do I email / ask / send for...

    I’ve already got the four transparent sleeve “Hosoda Collection” titles (with booklets), and then there’s the combined “Hosoda collection” set. Admittedly I don’t have it in 4K, so at least that combined with the soundtrack and bonus disc will make me appear a little less crazy. But if there’s...

    Ok, so I’m now trying to get through Gibiate. There’s not really anything to recommend it, is there? It doesn’t deserve to exist, let alone have a physical release, let alone have a CE, let alone have a CE with some actual extra bits. I’m just going to say that it’s akin to one of those early...

    Not an Ultimate (teacher) Edition? I have Gibiate in my to-watch pile. Don’t think I have King's Game, while Ex-Arm wasn’t cheap, so… I’ll evaluate. I did look up Ex-Arm on AL’s site, and the synopsis is just random confusion. Admittedly a lot of anime synopsis’ seem to fail at actually...

    Defective or Disappointing UK Anime Discs

    You seem to be detailing this as an audio problem, but I think it’s more likely the picture being delayed. When I first read (skimmed) the issue, I thought it was the audio needing to catch up, but no; it’s ahead… Does your tv have some form of ‘game mode’ that you could try (which usually...

    There tends to be an Easter Sale around the start of April, doesn’t there? Just thinking out loud…

    Figure discussion/picture thread

    I assume the reason for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is because Grandpa Joe is doing the same pose.

    That was part of my observation; I did have several other deliveries with the “usual” box containing bubble wrapped bundles and air pillow packing. I only order CE/LE/UE/Steel titles (from AL), so such packaging seems basically sensible (I assume Amazon and the like are ok with a 50:50 or so...

    One of my orders from AL (3 items) was rather minimal just soft card and bubblewrap wrap-around. Took me by surprise, as used to be entirely small boxes (with air pillows).

    And now I do have an email on this subject of shipping. Although I guess no detail, just reassurance that the orders are not forgotten. So the criticism and suggestions have presumably been noted and acted on.

    UK Anime Christmas Sales for 2025 [Anime Ltd's 12 Days of Xmas + More]

    The AL Xmas stuff is always subject to delay and disaster. I expected some of that, but am slowly getting items. At best there would only be a pound or two of interest earned/lost (1%?) I’ll come back for hugs in February if the last of mine hasn’t made it by then.

    Shows how much I know! I had assumed the new release having the same title was therefore the same thing. The good news is that I won’t be double-dipping then.
