This news is irrelevant to people in the UK. The Crunchyroll news is not though:

This is years old news. And actually the live-action film is looking awesome, there's some Korean actress playing Saya and the stills from the film that've been leaked look incredible.

Absolutely 0 is confirmed with regard to this news, so the whole news is moot.

Likewise. What's made it even worse is that the drop happened in literally a day, going from affordable to a vast amount more per item. That's the shock, I just can't buy anything now. And just when the industry was going over the boxsets.... Damnit. I could get so much for under the customs...

As far as I know, the retailers will buy the stock from the wholesaler at a set price, it depends on the retailer to set their price, so it's best to get something for as cheap as you can find it. The extra money only benefits the retailer, not the anime distributor.

More information is needed on this development. I'm utterly clueless as to what's going on with it, and ANN's news post just confuses it more. Hopefully there'll be some kind of update.

I need this SO badly. Why oh why does the exchange rate have to be so utterly disgusting just when tons of awesome things are coming out!?

The fact is, it's not. B&M shops will always account for sales and when a large B&M shop goes bust it hurts anime distributors. B&M stores buy a lot of stock and give it shelf space, so this stock is technically sold, so the likes of Beez get their money from it, unless it gets returned. And...

You lucky J-Rock/Visual Kei people, I want my J-pop/various other Japanese music artists to come to the UK. The best I get is Kokia in France, and I have no idea if she's touring there again anytime soon : x .

It's currently being released on DVD in the US, and has been on TV in the US too.

I think you should read this thread a bit more thoroughly before posting this kind of stuff. Andrew spends time on this forum as and when he wants, out of hours, this isn't a service paid for by Beez, it's just something that came together because Andrew wants to be here. Just out of...

Personally, I prefer to buy the CD.

The Bandai shop isn't "Anime-on-line", Anime-on-line has been running for years and built up wholesaler/distributor relations. Beez/Bandai obviously don't have any intention of doing such a venture, and I don't blame them, I'd imagine they'd only be able to sell Bandai/Beez products too, since...

The fact is that the vast majority of people who buy anime are going to buy it in B&M stores or more-so online from retailers who are well known (play.com/Amazon), I bet if you did a random poll of 200 people who buy anime DVDs, less than 10% would say they even knew about a Bandai store. It...

Who wrote this? Just seems like something some random person has written. They don't seem to know about the situation with Dragon Ball in Europe.

Not everything is about getting anime on the cheap. I've said it before and I'll say it again - the majority of people (and even distributors now trying to cater to this mindset) vastly devalue anime. People don't think about what actually goes into making an anime. Anime is the price it is...

I bought as well (not at the Expo though), it looks quite fascinating.

That's absolutely incredible. Seriously.

Funny that, I just did a motherload of a manga order and instead of buying all 27 (or around there) volumes that have been published so far I just picked up volumes 2+3 (already have 1), otherwise I'd be way over budget. Hopefully when I get some more funds I'll get the rest of what's out of...

Many thanks for that Andrew. I didn't realise Harmony Gold are only affiliated with the Robotech saga part, I thought it was the entirety of Macross. It's interesting to know that HD rights are different to Blu-ray rights and DVD rights. So many rights!
