[Overseas] Anime News & Announcements

So Funimation are Dubbing Space Battleship Yamato 2199 and I have every finger and toe crossed that this means they will release the show on Blu Ray also. Here is hoping that unlike the last Yamato Anime they licensed this one actually comes out!

At what point do we give up on Anime Limited and start importing? I want to support the UK releases but it gets harder every quarter to justify it.

Already started for me. Importing IBO and Wing CEs this month. AL dropped the ball not announcing any Gundam stuff at MCM, especially with no releases scheduled past ZZ part 2 atm.
 
I've kept my IBO preorder with Amazon US and I don't see me cancelling at this stage, much as I would like to keep a shelf of matching AL Gundam Collection releases (don't really give much of a toss about Wing, my old Beez DVD set is good enough). Nozomi is really blitzing out their Gundam releases but I'm hesitant to import any since they just don't say "quality" in the way the nice AL releases do. If they're coming, I'm happy to wait. I just wish we knew if and when they are coming.
 
Those Gundam announcements! Oh, how I'm salivating!

Mostly over Gundam AGE, to be honest. I don't really see a need to trade up from my Gundam Unicorn and OO DVDs. But the talk of a OO OVA has me intrigued. I didn't even kno there was one!

Plus, I'll have money to spend on anime again in 2018. YEEEEE-EEESSS-AAAHHH!

I'm REALLY looking forward to buying more shiny discs, posting here a bit more often and annoying you all with my righteous campaign to protest the high cost of anime. You'll all be sick of me this time next year! I promise!
 
As I wrote in the Anime Limited thread (where this news was re-posted), great news to hear, especially the Unicorn OVA package, as I wasn't sure they'd ever actually package them up, and I have been long resigned to stick with my DVD versions due to not being able to afford the high-priced stand-alone blu-ray releases...

Sadly I have no means to play imported Blu-rays, so I am still very much in Anime Limited's hands when it comes to Gundam on Blu-ray, though I'll admit if they ever announced no more would be released here I'd have to look into it...
 
D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-DISCOTEK DAY
