Did anyone else order multiple copies of the Blue Giant Collector's Edition and only receive 1 poster? The packing slip confirms 1 poster, referring to it as a "Bonus Poster", in contradiction with the shop listing which includes it under "Packaging and Physical Contents". This has got to be a...

My day 1 stil hasn’t shipped either. Nothing on back order. Just the usual disappointment from AL. There’s no way I’m seeing that order this year now.

Still waiting on my Day One order to ship. Meanwhile, my Day Seven order shipped on Day Nine and arrived today. I’m expecting I’ll see the Day One order sometime next year, just like the abysmal 2018 AL sale.

Don't get me wrong, I love trash, but AL are releasing them in overpriced editions with nothing to justify the cost, while the same titles are a small fraction of the price in Sentai's constant sales long before we see a finished product.

I'm sure the lack of new titles has nothing to do with the fact that the majority of their output is the trash you can pickup from Sentai dirt cheap, and half of the time it's MVM or Animatsu's sloppy seconds. Silver lining though; at least with the lack of early birds, we won't be bent over...

Everything Embracer touch turns to ****.

Another total rip off like Season 1. I am saving so much money every month ever since AL went to ****.

In November according to LinkedIn.

I expect the Chief Marketing Officer leaving AL the month before Christmas has probably played some part in the absolute pathetic display we’ve seen lately.

It's a self fulfilling prophecy to some degree with AL though. With Kakegurui, for example, they announced season 1 over a year before Sentai did in the US, and kept telling us to wait. Sentai then announced season 1, got both it and season 2 out the door before we even got season 1, and AL have...

Such a disappointment. I struggle to get excited about AL for home media anymore. They're the reason I started buying blu-rays properly, and it's depressing to see them resort to just phoning it in all the time after 10 years. Rent-a-Girlfriend - Love this anime, but there's no point buying an...

I think AL should just put out a deluxe edition of the Suzume soundtrack that matches the Your Name and Weathering With You CEs stylistically and just happens to have an empty slot where one could place the Suzume blu-ray

£45? Can’t trust them not to screw us like Kakegurui again since Sentai have already released season 2. Factor in the lack of dub as well, which will inevitably be on a Sentai re-release, and it’s just not worth it.

Crunchyroll also get cool colour variants of AL vinyl releases while we just get black. The UK is fast becoming an afterthought.

I have the JP release, but I will reluctantly buy the Suzume steelbook for the collection, and then inevitably triple dip for the eventual 4K release. I'm not happy about it.
