And Little Witch Academia could also be possibly be freed from Netflix jail!

DOES THAT MEAN YOU CAN GIVE US HOME RELEASE OF SAKURA QUEST PLEASE!

Yes, they are apparently printed and will be up soon although given their headaches with some other releases having production issues, the shipping backlog and I presume a slate of newer titles (Her Blue Sky!) that will need to go up for pre-order I can imagine it might be a few weeks into next...

A surprise delivery from Anime-on-line, it’s Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken!

'Tis Time for Torture, Princess....again! This will (fingers crossed) be the light hearted dumb fun between Freiren and Trigun.

Bocchi the Rock Vol 7 from Amazon. Crazy how quick we have caught up, Vol 8 just came out in Japan!

My copy of Blue Giant arrived from AllTheAnime, I got an early number!

Just to combo on to this there was an interesting (and I think overlooked comment) from the BBFC in their recent analysis of how anime is viewed by the public from a ratings perspective. The market for physical anime is thriving. Of course this statement doesn't speak to the likely collapse of...

Of the 3 non-SLA anime I've seen at the cinema this year I had to cheat twice. The Colors Within I had to drive an hour to Leeds Showcase, COLORFUL STAGE! The Movie: A Miku Who Can't Sing was at my local Odeon and Chainsaw Man The Movie: Reze Arc was at CW (but in 4DX and it was a nightmare!)...

Group 1 cinema kings rise up!

You've beaten the 3 a month films needed to 'justify' it and ultimately you have to value your time. I don't go see films for the sake of it with Unlimited. My friends were very surprised during my biggest year when I hit 95 that I didn't 'go for the 100' but that beats the point because I'd be...

It's funny that my annual Cineworld membership is almost the same as the Picturehouse Membership (which I gte to use the 10 free tickets at SLA because its cheaper, even though my nearest PH is over an hour away) and they part of the same group. I've seen 66 films at the cinema this year, 9...

Post covid I think my train and hotel costs for SLA have basically doubled. It really shouldn't be £500 to get to and sleep in a city in my own country for between 2-4 days.

Do we think its back to the Filmhouse next year?

I would rate this year as a C+, ultimately placing the Lupin OVAs the wrong way around was not great. The Last Blossom was the only "must buy on home release". I wonder if All You Need is Kill is hurt by presenting itself visually as dynamic and exciting but its lead protagonist is quite...
