Nothing much more to note than I've previously reported - it's in progress, but it's been a long-running process to get all of the materials and everything together. We're getting there step by step, and we'll share more once there's more we're able to!

Like most of these kinds of screenings, this was a public screening where we held back a small number of tickets for press/influencer coverage. Needless to say, for something like Kiki's Delivery Service the focus there is firmly on broader film and family audiences and raising awareness amongst...

Needless to say the Netflix release date curveball has caused us to have to scramble to realign everything (we've effectively had to start over on discussions with cinema chains too), so we're pretty hopeful that this is still happening, but we're currently trying to secure the when and where...

Macross Frontier is very much coming and in the pipeline - it's a big project that has had some cool plans bolted to it which means it's taking longer than we initially forecast by some distance, but we really want to create a release that's worth the wait!

As the office's resident "will shout about Toradora at every opportunity" person, it does, doesn't it... (Also I've been away for a couple of weeks, and returned to a mountain of meetings (can meetings form a mountain?) and work backlog to catch up on, some of which I am now avoiding by...

Our fulfilment house has had to switch away from Royal Mail due to some serious issues with them. Keen to keep tabs on how things go with this new courier, so please do feedback experiences on this!

It's another big project so it's taking a while, but definitely progressing pretty well just now, so hopefully more news soon!

Not just yet on BLEACH, we're still held up on approvals with the final volumes there.

Funnily enough we've actually just this week received approval on this, so this should be slotting into the schedule for later in the year.

Still progressing slowly but surely - no ETA on it currently, but it very much hasn't been forgotten.

This new tax is directly leveraged against the shipper rather than the customer, so it's all handled and charged before any item reaches a customer - we don't make the laws here, we just have to adhere to them. As for IOSS, this is actually something I'm working on right now - there are legal...

This isn't a full theatrical run, it's a single, brand-new 35mm print we've had struck and is available for interested cinemas to screen on a one-off basis to tour around - it's just a cool thing to do as part of our celebration of the history and heritage of the film (and as far as I'm aware...

The date is only tentative because we need final confirmation of dates from cinema chains, and from experience that can change as other film date's shift or films consume more screening slots than initially anticipated. Last thing I wanted to do at MCM is shout "THIS IS THE DATE" and then have...

Just wanted to drop a note here that I've seen people's concerns/issues with this one, so I've raised it internally for us to look into what we can do here. No promises, but I wanted to acknowledge that we're aware and investigating! There was always supposed to be a relatively subtle effect of...

Did we.... not confirm that at MCM Comic Con? I know I have MCM fever dreams (and stress dreams), but I'm sure that one actually happened....

If we're talking about BLEACH, it's a Friday/Saturday release. More broadly, cinema chains do insist on showing non-anime films too - rumour has it that some of them even generate higher attendances than anime, especially at weekends! Unthinkable I know, but this is the scurrilous chatter we...

Just to double-confirm, yep, it's definitely happening! It's in the works currently.

Speaking of stuff we've been working on...

Our theatrical and production teams are entirely disparate (barring us marketing folks who straddle both of course) so our cinema slate has no bearing on production work; work on Naruto and Bleach actually isn't eating up as much production time as you'd think, so it wouldn't be fair to say...

We're in the process of moving to different social media management software that (from early testing) seems to actually work properly with BlueSky - once that's finalised and we're fully migrated we should be able to start posting everything there more easily.
