    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    I’m pretty sure I have my answer in that others have the same email. I doubt the origin or headers would show anything unexpected, although even if not spoofed; there are other possibilities such as some temp with access taking a backhander. If you still have an interest, the points are: The...

    That’s partly why I’m uncertain; it’s obviously targeted, although you could say that about a lot of dubious ‘adverts‘, and it’s not like other retailers cough theHut cough Amazon cough haven‘t tried to get people to subscribe under the pretence of “free gift offer”. But on the other hand; the...

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    Anyone else get some email spam/scam purporting to be from AllTheAnime, trying to flog a subscription to azuki? Wondering if there’s some data breach, or if AtA would really do this to their customers.

    UK Anime Distributor MVM Entertainment Discussion Thread

    I’m just one of the Blu-Ray snobs inferred earlier. And an ‘Edition’ snob to go with that. In other words; I’d think it ‘worth’ £30 if it were a BR and/or some form of set with a bit of background material (the artbooks or cast/crew analysis or CDs), but a DVD just means I’m going to double-dip...

    UK Anime Christmas Sales for 2022 [Anime Ltd's 12 Days of Xmas + More]

    Post in thread 'MVM Entertainment Discussion Thread' UK Anime Distributor - MVM Entertainment Discussion Thread Aw. Sod it. It’s only £30, so ordered. Methinks MVM are going to arrive at work on Monday, and wonder what happened to cause this fresh pile of orders! Edit: probably a bit late to...

    That seems like a pretty decent selection to me in the DVD pack (excepting having the third movie in a sequence on a DVD?) Now I’m torn; I quite fancy the titles, but that’s £6 per DVD set. Or £7.50 if I ignore the movie.

    UK Anime Christmas Sales for 2022 [Anime Ltd's 12 Days of Xmas + More]

    Even if tipsy, you managed to evaluate the offering better than me: I thought the ‘standard’ CCS here was the complete thing for £35. Before realising it was two parts at £35 each. Which makes more sense than the CE having a 20 page book costing a couple of times more than the discs… But no...

    Oh dear. Looks like I’m slightly worse off with 6/10 duplicates. Still; I knew that was a risk, as the number of less-old possibilities is a little small.

    UK Anime Christmas Sales for 2022 [Anime Ltd's 12 Days of Xmas + More]

    The MVM one has a further annoyance (for me) in that at least a couple of the titles have been in recent DOTW or sale listings (or both) - I would have hoped / expected that a ‘blind’ bundle not include any recent promotional items… That ‘Testament..’ pricing observation is quite strange, as...

    UK Anime Christmas Sales for 2022 [Anime Ltd's 12 Days of Xmas + More]

    I’ve got the JP Perspex box version, and the disc holder part in that is pretty similar to the card version pictured; a blue ‘book’ of disc trays. I think the point probably is to tie in with the same colour scheme and appearance: it’s sort of a ‘Eva blue‘, just like the dvd box is an ‘LCL /...

    I’ve done the same in previous years; getting all the Gundam in the BOGOF offer, with the intention of working through it all. The end result is a pile up to my knee of a few hundred hours of anime, and I’ve watched maybe half of a set… I now need to check which ones in the current BOGOF I...

    UK Anime Distributor MVM Entertainment Discussion Thread

    @MVM is there any fixed disk2 of “The Hentai Prince and the Stony Cat” available? I‘ve added to the “Defective discs” entry of this title (see quote below): I don’t think the startup loop is a major thing (as it’s skippable), but the second issues with the subs are a bit less minor.

    Defective or Disappointing UK Anime Discs

    …and on PS3, and on Xb1X, and stand-alone Toshiba player for me too (as well as the aforementioned PS4). Endlessly loops, but at least navigating to a menu works. And this disc2 also seems to have a bit of a mess up with the subtitles of the special features; they’re missing from the second ep...

    Showing off your researching abilities? ;-) I haven’t even seen a trailer. My decision making is basically: 1. Anime? 2. (Not) owned? 3. Good price? I guess the last two are optional.

    I’m waiting to see if there’s a third £15 DOTW in a row. That would probably indicate all this “cost of living” prediction stuff coming true.

    It was also the price. I was half way to pressing “buy” when I saw the “CE”, and half way when I saw the first digit was a one. However; my brain is based on an old Pentium processor, so it didn’t quite add up to 100% I‘ve already got Big Order CE in my pile of shame. But while we’re pleading...

    For a moment I misread that as ‘The Big O’, and got excited to see what a BR CE would be like.

    I’ll second that “luxurious af“ comment. I‘m tempted to import a copy, as that’s what a release like that should be, and it seems fairly cheap at the going rate for auctions.
