I was always surprised they were able to offer free shipping for all orders within the UK to begin with, since there's no way it cost them nothing. £3.50 per order is still almost nothing compared to their international shipping cost, and in my experience it's a fairly standard rate for domestic...
Huh. The back cover says Danish, Swedish, Finnish and Norwegian subs, even though I don't think those were ever officially listed on AtA's store page. Can you check the discs to see if they're actually included? Thanks.
I was wondering why I hadn't received any dispatch notification for Eighty-Six and turns out it's been silently delayed by a month to October 28. (Edit: Oh, they did mention it in the schedule update, I just missed it since my attention was drawn to the newly announced releases.)
On the plus...
Pleased to see Eupho on the schedule and very surprised about Kaguya-sama. I really hope they will release seasons 1-3 as well because the AoA sets are expensive and the S1 one doesn't even have the dub (Kaguya-sama being pretty much the only anime where I care about the dub), and it would be...
Wasn't the SE released after the BBFC logo update?
Well, if Crunchyroll licensing it means that seasons 2 and 3 get Blu-ray releases on this side of the ocean, I don't mind. On the other hand, the worst case scenario would be Crunchyroll picking up the license for S1 and then not doing...
I'm sure Sentai have their own worries over reverse importation (if so, why not just pull the same card used on them from Japan and require MVM & co. to geolock discs to block US players?), but it sure would be nice to be able to buy a reasonably priced release of Oshi no Ko now and not in 2026.
At least Ex-Arm has enough name recognition that some people will buy it because it's terrible. Gibiate, on the other hand, will probably sell so badly that it'll be less than half of its EB price in every sale from next year until the license expires.
Also an EU store. German and French BD/DVDs ship to the entire EU, so I might use it going forward if there's any multi-language releases from Crunchyroll that interest me.
That's an amazing deal for a great show. Also reminds me, have MVM said anything about getting the movie? It's already been a while since Sentai's US release.
I was thinking the same, but at a closer look it looks like it's just the inner cover of the box. Then again, product renders are just product renders 🤷♂️
Yeah, for someone like me who has the JP standard edition there's not much reason to get the UK/US version unless it has at least some of the extras that are CE-exclusive in Japan.
From CDJapan (Black Friday):
Sound Horizon 7th Story Concert BD Märchen (second-hand copy via proxy service)
Sound Horizon 5th Story CD Roman (Re:Master Production UHQCD)
The Heike Story Illuminated artbook
Suzume Standard Edition BD (with shop-exclusive bonus item)
From Amazon UK:

Shirobako was what I was waiting for, so I've made my order. An order that coincidentally(?) includes not one but two anime about filmmaking (Shirobako and Pompo the Cinephile). As well as... a lot of other stuff. Yay for free international shipping~
Amazon UK is price-matching at least some of MVM's Christmas sale discounts - I was able to get Garden of Sinners for a bit cheaper than I would have from AOL all things considered, even with Amazon's more expensive international shipping.

Those CE deals are really good. Now I regret buying the SE of Liz and the Blue Bird earlier... I haven't even seen the film yet but I already kind of consider double dipping! Well, even if I don't, those stocking fillers and the eventual Shirobako early bird will already make this probably my...
I might get Shirobako, although that will depend on the early bird price as it'd be a blind buy for me and I'm careful with those. Nothing else for me in the new pre-orders, but hopefully the catalogue deals will be better.
Happy about Re:Zero S2. I've been interested in Shirobako so that's nice to see as well.
What's weird is Naruto. Starting another forever series, really? Why not One Piece too while you're at it (assuming Funiroll only has the DVD rights).
