    Yep, sorry for the radio silence on that but it is coming! We're currently seeing what materials we have access to, and we'll hopefully be getting to it soon. It certainly hasn't been forgotten! :)

    We don't have a date for it currently, but we'll certainly be releasing it on home video! We're probably looking at 2023 at this point, but we'll share more details once we have them.

    A strong choice (and another project I was lucky enough to be product manager for!) Definitely very proud of everything we managed to pile into that Collector's Edition, and we had so many amazing materials and beautiful pieces of art to work with!

    Far be it from me to spoil people's speculation!

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    Mobile Suit Gundam titles are licensed and handled on a title-by-title basis - it just so happens that Cucuruz Doan's Island ended up with Crunchyroll so they hold the UK rights on this one, but that doesn't have any impact on our broader plans for Gundam releases. Indeed, although it's been a...

    The not particularly helpful answer (sorry!) is that it isn't that quite that simple, and especially for more ambitious products - it isn't really a series of sliders where you can drag one down and another up, as there are a lot of complexities to consider. Sometimes making a book smaller can...

    Mine is utterly personal, but Cardcaptor Sakura. In terms of the historical importance of the title, it's been the biggest product release I've been manager on since starting here - I started out having never seen the show and ended having watched the whole thing and loving every minute of it...

    So, our Blood-C Ultimate is an interesting case of us doing something outside of the norm - we haven't tried doing a limited run Ultimate Edition like this one, where we printed less units than we typically do for such a release. What we've found as a result of this is that to keep the price of...

    This is always a delicate balance, and my policy when we handle delay e-mails is to give details where we can and when it's pertinent (for Violet Evergarden the movie, it was a very specific paper stock shortage for example), but at the same time we don't want to give the impression that we're...

    Absolutely, this should be the bare minimum, and I'm sorry that hasn't always happened in some cases. Personally, I'm of a mind that these delays should be communicated at least a week prior to the stated release date, and that's the kind of minimum I want to work towards (barring last-minute...

    I wondered why my anime-senses were tingling, and now I know why! So, let's get into this... First and foremost, I do owe a lot of you apologies for late notifications of delays, and to be quite honest at least some of that is on me. I'm well aware that being notified late or on release date...

    Sorry folks, was a genuine and honest human error there, so profuse apologies for the mistake.

    It isn't true to suggest the Gundam isn't a priority for us at all - as always, there are many moving parts in play with releasing any title, and that can change timeframes markedly at times. We're still as committed to releasing more Gundam titles and have plenty of plans in the pipeline, and...

    It'll be the same as Funimation's latest US release.

    Hi folks - just figured I'd chip in on this one as our e-mail newsletter is very much in my wheelhouse (so let me also take this opportunity to apologise for any and all bad puns in newsletters ;) ) This is actually really useful feedback, so the discussion is appreciated here - it's all about...

    It still exists at the same location it always did. We'll be further overhauling our site hierarchy in the future - the first step was getting the new design and front page in place so that we can start making things slicker elsewhere around the site.
