    What did you BUY today?

    In case you are not aware, PleaseRewind is Sony. Perhaps a third party operates the store (I don't know) but it's Sony's direct thing. I've bought from them a few times and it's always gone well.

    The Gaming News Thread (for news that doesn't need a thread)

    That explains the main image of the single turtle. I wasn't aware of the source material though given the style of the teaser that makes sense. Hadn't thought about that in terms of gameplay; never liked Bayonetta (and I totally suck at that type of game) so I'll keep my expectations low.

    The Gaming News Thread (for news that doesn't need a thread)

    I felt I knew as soon as I saw that butt so we are on the same wavelength apparently. 😆 Yeah that was a fun surprise. Nothing was really shown to give a clue what the game will be, but Platinum's TMNT game might be interesting too.

    UK Anime Distributor Crunchyroll/Funimation/Manga UK Discussion Thread

    Given there's little inconsistency to what Crunchyroll does that's impossible to predict, but I don't recall them doing any complete season rereleases for what was already released in two parts in recent times, except for the cases where they did a steelbook. Maybe I'm forgetting something though?

    The Gaming News Thread (for news that doesn't need a thread)

    Because of it being from Fumito Ueda, gen ATLAS caught my attention: Otherwise, FFVII was enough for me to be satisfied. Also interested in the new collaboratons for Sonic Racing Crossworlds and curious about the TMNT game. I'm not much into horror and definitely not into gore so a lot of the...

    UK Anime Distributor Crunchyroll/Funimation/Manga UK Discussion Thread

    Oh thank goodness, was starting to wonder if they just weren't doing anything for the UK anymore. So two months were skipped compared to one in the US, but since most titles lag a month behind and with the small slates in the US there wasn't really much that hadn't already gotten a UK release...

    [Overseas] Anime News & Announcements

    I have some Funimation DVDs that will never make it to blu-ray like Witch Hunter Robin, Kanon, Air and a few others I don't remember offhand. Those came from Rightstuf but I also got a few OOP things from ebay like Sentai's Living for the Day After Tomorrow. I kind of gave up on trying to buy...

    Overseas The Discotek Media Thread (plus AnimEigo)

    There was some North American plant that made many Warner Bros DVDs that were notorious for rotting, and I unfortunately have had quite a few of them. Worst thing was in my case a lot of them were discs in TV series sets, so most of the discs might be fine but a couple would fail making the set...

    Overseas The Discotek Media Thread (plus AnimEigo)

    Valid points. With regular blu-ray, I'm ambivalent about what Discotek does. Their encoding tends to be ok, but it could certainly be better if they didn't try to cram so much data onto a single disc, putting twelve episodes on a single disc instead of the 6-8 that Crunchyroll or others do. Old...

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    I'd be ok as a choice, but as I hate steelbooks that would just guarantee I'd never buy another CE, though I generally don't anyway so I suppose I'm complaining about nothing. 😄

    Overseas The Discotek Media Thread (plus AnimEigo)

    I wondered about that but didn't know if it was the case. That definitely makes it worth it because all DVD subtitles I've seen are huge and also pretty unattractive where they tend to kind of spoil the experience for me.

    Overseas The Discotek Media Thread (plus AnimEigo)

    Not quite 3 years for me; I bought it November 2023 and haven't watched it. My understanding is SD-BD should look better due to better compression quality; if that's true I'd be willing to get this. If I do, it'll be the first Discotek release I've bought in a very long time since most of what...

    UK Anime Distributor Crunchyroll/Funimation/Manga UK Discussion Thread

    It was the Sony-owned Funimation, who were more of a home media company than a streaming one, that bought Crunchyroll. But in changing the name to the latter, it really does seem like they're behaving far more like it was the other way round in who was the buyer and who got bought. In the US...

    May is almost over and still no announcements from Crunchyroll UK, so June is going to be another month with zero disc releases from them. :(

    Oh that's interesting; I didn't realize it was out of print and considered rare. But as I wrote above I also didn't realize the second release was five years ago. The first version was dual format so if anyone specifically wants a DVD for some reason that's the only one with that.

    Ok I have to laugh a bit at this one: This is the third version of Girls Und Panzer: This is the Real Anzio Battle! that Sentai has released. That isn't unusual for them, but they usually get completely different cover art, but that isn't the case here. this one looks almost exactly the same as...

    What Games Are You Playing?

    Just be very sure of this before doing it. I've never done that on any large scale but long ago did it in some smaller sense a few times, and sometimes came to regret it later.
