In a similar situation as Rosencrantz. My order contained an item that was on backorder. Only ever received the 'order placed' email and decided to contact them. Their response was also along the line of '(...) regret to inform you that the order has been denied/cancelled by our lost prevention...
Sort of not surprised and surprised at the same time. From the start I thought there was potential, especially considering the parties involved. It just didn't really take off, but it felt like they just needed a bit more content/awareness. I was actually expecting them to stick around for...
Ah.... that's strange, probably a bug :rolleyes:
Most likely there is a check for the region code, but not against a (simple) value, causing the checker to interpret a random value as region code, resulting in the question mark.
All it means is that there is an instruction on the disc that checks for that region, but that's all the checker can say about it. How that check is used can range from blocking or allowing that region to showing different titles, subtitle tracks, etc....
Most of the time, however, there's just...
I did end up making a little utility: BD Region/Country code checker
It's slightly less useful than an earlier prototype I had, but I realised you could, with some effort, say it was "circumventing geo-restrictions", which is legally a bit grey.
Anyway, this version also does it's job, but only...
There's no need to test it for region B explicitly. As IncendiaryLemon has stated, the disc will play fine on a region B player as long as the country code is set to US. Likewise it will refuse to play on a region A player if the country code is not set to US. To be more precise, the region code...
The thing is that "geo-locked" titles only look at the country code and never even access the region code register.
In other words, the discs are effectively "region free".
It's been quite a while since I watched AKB0048, but wasn't at one point stated that the entertainment ban was there to boost productivity at work(?). It was Nagisa's father who found research/reports pointing to the opposite.
In any case, I do agree that the show should have explained it more...
The Anthem of the Heart
Great film, was really blown away. Reading the synopsis, it sounded like the most improbably and illogical situation, but the actual flow of events made it surprisingly plausible.
A bit melodramatic at times and somewhat predictable, but not to the extent that it limited...
Although it wasn't My Love Story and I don't live in the UK, I did receive one of my orders from zoreno last Friday, for what it's worth.
Only received the shipment notification mail from Amazon (no mail from zoreno) and it came in a jiffy bag, but luckily it wasn't damaged.:)
Eccentric Family 2 ep 11-12 (complete)
Not disappointed with that ending, overall a solid season. Not as good as the first one if you ask me, but great nevertheless.
Alice and Zoroku ep 11-12 (complete)
Nice way to wrap up the show, but is it just me or was that last bit needlessly sad? At...
Thanks for checking, the funny thing is I'm also using the app on my LG TV.:D
Now I don't live in the UK, so that might be the cause. Both in the app and on the website it doesn't indicate that those particular episodes have subtitles, while on the AmazonUK site it does.
I just can't understand...
To anyone who is subscribed to Amazon Prime Video, does the third episode of Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's have subtitles for you?
I was happily binging the show, but now can't continue due to missing subtitles. It appears that episodes 3, 4, 8, 10 and 14 all lack subtitles.
Sure the...
I do watch it and look forward to it every week to some extent, but I'm not sure what to make of it, actually. It certainly has some things going for it and most of the reveals actually worked quite well IMHO, but at the same time the story doesn't seem to have a clear focus. There's hardly any...

Natsume Yuujinchou 6:
This season is similar to the previous five and in a good way. Normally you'd expect it to worsen with each new season (or lose it's appeal), but every time it just manages to capture the same vibe and it never gets old. :)
Eccentric Family 2:
I was actually expecting...
Yesterday, I finally sat down and watched some of the anime films that were starting to collect dust on my shelves.
Patema Inverted - Really liked it, a fun and engaging story from start to finish. Would definitely recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it yet. :)
PSYCHO-PASS Movie - Was...
Akashic Records of Bastard Magic Instructor - Episodes 1-3
Despite being a 'generic LN adaptation', I thought it was quite enjoyable. All the clichés you'd expect are there, but it actually has a few things going for it. Also thought the directing and pacing was remarkably good. (Though, I have...
Ah, I indeed interpreted it the other way around, my bad :oops:
Still I think anime generally tends to heavy-hand everything as if the viewers can't remember a single thing.
I couldn't agree more. Thanks to Fate/Zero I had quite high hopes for the Fate/stay night adaptation by Ufotable, but was very disappointed (apart from the overall eye-candy and fight scenes).
While I haven't seen Monster yet, it's a big problem with most anime IMO. Everything always has to be...
