UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

[ConanThe3rd]

Nothing to add from MCM Glasgow. I poked in regards to the lack of Broadcast Dubs and it's smoething they're lookin' into.

Which they should cuz that's the last bastion upon which Pirates have a foot.

 

[Lutga]

Broadcast Dubs? As in Anime Ltd dubbing stuff themselves? Or them bringing over Funi's dubs to the weekly streams?

 

[GolGotha]

I think he meant gaining access to the broadcast dubs from Funimation?

 

[ConanThe3rd]

basically,yes

It's nearly a year old now, but I just stumbled upon a brilliant in-depth interview with Yoko Kanno that has gives some particularly fascinating insight into the Terror in Resonance score

 

[Shiroi Hane]

Has Ping Pong been delayed? It's January 11th on both Amazon and Anime on Line.

--edit--

Likewise, SAO II Part 2 is showing as November 23rd on both stores.

 

[Robbl]

I noticed that SAO II is a "Collector Edition" and not a "Collector's Edition" which is weird since all other AL CE releases are Collector's Editions.

Btw, is there a way to request or make wishlists for animes that haven't been released? Anime Ltd. is my favourite european anime distributor and seeing them release some of my favourites like Eureka Seven or the upcoming One-Punch Man anime would be awesome. (I don't know if Manga UK also has the Blu-ray rights for Eureka Seven)

Could be a matter of getting more stock in but Kill La Kill Part 3 (Blu-Ray) on A/L's own store state's it's "Sold Out" : http://www.alltheanime.com/products/kil ... 1170949908

It's probably nothing, like when it was noted Wings Of Mayonnaise was sold out but it could also mean the big black box for the Blu-Ray version is soon to be OOP.

 

[Lutga]

Could be that the first print run is all done, wouldn't surprise me as its sold well.

They can't have One-Punch Man, Viz Media Europe, and therefore the French company that Andrew will not name (Kazé), has them. I guess we better hope Viz Media US don't screw it up.

That is true but *technically* shouldn't Viz Media Europe & those who shall not be named have the rights to the K movie & second season?

I don't think it was ever confirmed Viz had European rights for K the movie and K2. Bear in mind Viz Media and Viz Media Europe are apparently separate companies as One-Punch Man was specifically acquired by a group comprising of Anime Consortium Japan, Viz Media and Viz Media Europe.

Suppose one can hope I imagine it's the sort of show FUNi will be all over so may be sublicense able

Why would Viz Media buy One-Punch Man only to sub-licence it to either FUNi or AL? Sorry to **** on your dreams, but I'd be very very surprised if this isn't a Kazé shitfest.

 

[Lutga]

In that case let's hope it doesn't end up like Terraformars then...

 

[Robbl]

:evil: Dammit, I hate, you know who, with their yellow subs... gross
What are the chances for Eureka Seven?

 

[st_owly (witch)]

One Punch Man is too good and valuable a show to let the likes of Khazi ruin it. I smell a Bakuman if they get it.

 

[Buzz201]

It's too late, I'm not talking about a rumour, I'm talking about already announced solid fact. Viz and Daisuki have already co-acquired most of the world.

 

[st_owly (witch)]

I know. I'm still holding out hope that the physical release ends up in someone else's hands though.
