    Lol, Clash of the Bionoids was so bad! 😂 Re SDFM, we didn’t even get a full run of the Macross chapter of Robotech, Kiseki crapped out after 17/18 episodes. We never got anywhere near getting proper Macross. You don’t need to watch SDFM or DYRL to enjoy Macross Plus, it works well as a...

    My god Gunbuster needs a proper western blu release! Series please, not the film only like Sentai 🙄 Or both, I’m not picky as long as the series is there…. 😂

    I’d be really interested to hear what the global strategy is. Is the model something akin to Eva? Something like Gundam? Something else entirely? Excited to hear the details.

    That’s right. SDFM and DYRL seemed unlikely at the time of the original announcement last year, but that was over a year ago so hopefully things have moved on since then. Given that that one of the main drivers behind finally sorting this mess out was to unimpede the live action Robotech movie I...

    Haven’t checked in for a few days, mental busy, but thanks to @anime_andrew for comments re potential Lupin III and El-Hazard In the future. Completely understand you not wanting to give anything concrete away but I’m happy enough with what I’ve heard to cancel my US pre-orders and wait to see...

    I’ll probably end up doing what I did with the Magnificent World, imported and then swapped out for the AL release when it became available. Handily, my brother loves El-Hazard too so the discs don’t go to waste. Lupin, I’ll probably just pick up the Disco release. My Lupin collection is a...

    I got the same question when I asked, and I’d purchased directly from AtA, so I think they’re just asking everyone. Once I stated the issue I got a polite response saying that I’d been added to the list. Re El-Hazard, I asked a while ago but got no response, so I just imported the Nozomi...

    Evangelion is one of two….maybe three anime that I’d pay almost any price for. The others being the original Macross, and possibly El-Hazard (although I have the JP Bandai set, so only if it were a mega set incorporating both OAVs and the series). There’s other stuff; Lum, Maison Ikkoku, City...

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    Any news on more Evangelion rebuild movies, or are we still theorising that they need to wait for Manga's license to expire? Re Gundam, can't really describe the experience as anything other than bitterly disappointing. AL editions are without doubt great, but the pace of...

    Our Favourite Classic Anime

    Oh I agree - nostalgia is a very powerful force, and can certainly continue to blind you to the relative merits. For a fair reflection you almost need to be able to detach yourself and observe remotely, and therefore objectively, which is incredibly difficult to do. It's hard to quantify how...
