    No excuse, competitors also release books with a lot of textual contents, some are indeed plagued by lackluster QC, others can be absolutely fine. If you ask a premium price, you proof read it. Also I am asking again @andrew_anime, what about the french boxset of gunbuster? Are we getting new...

    Easy: do not do any QC whatsoever. One or two months ago I tried to raise awareness about the french branch giving up on any form of QC and the products being all defective in one way or another. This could very well be an internal AL "global" decision, and the results are only showing up now...

    Good analysis, the whole point of this CE is to have it on shelves and online market places and lure the uninformed into a silly purchase. Quick cash grab, little to no effect on the company's image as long as the runlength is advertised properly, so the blame can be put on the customer.

    Not at all, UK staff is frequently credited for working on FR sets. It's just easier to mess with customers overseas I suppose.

    Still no comment on the french issues? Here's yet another to the pile: Eureka Seven with fancy FrenCh suBs p Ÿ No disc replacement? I suppose you will to continue to ignore e-mails, Tweets and alikes? No QC, no customer service, a total disrespect for the clients, nice.

    You're mising the point. The disc must deliver a faithful representation of what the artists worked on. Then you are free to use whatever terrible playback software or monitor and have it messes with it. You are also free to care and use the appropriate equipement. The main point is, a release...

    "Look, there are numerous complaint on the internet, video reviews of french boxset that shows sufficient evidence but let's pretend this is not real and ask for yet more evidence." I don't wish a poor product for anyone, this is exactly why I am complaining here and trying to get attention...

    You need to observe that I have shown a still from a movie with changing lighting conditions during a scene. The color bands moves around, as a part of the movie. A re-release should be better than the previous one, not critically worse. If you pay close attention to the wooden area on the...

    @anime_andrew @Hanners Sorry to tag both of you but this is a continuation from the rant here. The Garden of Words steelbook just released in French speaking territories and it manages to be quite WORSE than Kazé's release. This is absolutely outrageous and plain disrepectful to your client at...

    Dear Anime Limited staff. In the past months, AL France has released quite a few titles in the dear lands of baguettes, fries, and chocolate. While home video lovers appreciate the flow, most if not all titles are absolute lackluster in terms of quality. There is evidently NO quality check...

    This press release is missleading and untrue…? The French Cardcaptor Sakura BD uses the 4K remaster and was released in 2018.

    Defective or Disappointing UK Anime Discs

    It does, but you have to interlace the footage from 25p to 50i then flag the video as progressive before encoding. Cheap blu-ray players will bob the video to 50p while some more advanced ones will "understand" and blend the fields to get the expected 25p.

    The german release is a separate authoring and LEONINE will not replace the discs. They made it very clear on their facebook page that the users have to live with it.

    @Magical Senshi: There will be one additional file to store the discs. That is it.

    LEONINE generally does not chapters the episodes of their series. With their belief that NTSC and PAL are still a thing, they are evidently stuck in the VHS era, where the FF/RW buttons are your only life jacket.

    Don't overthink it. The US/UK sets have 6 discs (if you ignore the 5 dupes for the ADV dub). Five are for the show and one for the two movies, with all of the extras spread across those 6 discs. The German edition uses 7 (with only the historial dub). Four for the show, one for the two movies...

    The English discs are not affected as far as we know. The german distributor authored their own discs (and also used AC-3 on all audio tracks for the bonus content 🤦‍♂️).

    Their explanation makes no sense, there's no such thing as television standards (NTSC/PAL) for Blu-Ray discs. So they're just avoiding the problem and putting the complaints under the carpet. In fact this was one of the whole point when HD arrived: get rid of anything NTSC or PAL, those obsolete...

    As I have stated all of the discs in the set are scratched in some ways. Their surface are in direct contact to the cardboard below, just like the Evangelion set (and a fair share of german buyers are reporting scratched discs on Leonine FB). Any hard dust below while the disc turn and it will...
