UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

kinda hoping my wish of a standard Durarara X2 comes true now considering the last 2 days

I would also welcome this, particularly if they corrected any issues with the part sets, as it's got an excellent dub and I'd really like to rewatch it

Unless it’s a major issue that’s already had a recall, their re-issues usually use the same discs as the originals so I wouldn’t get your hopes up for any corrections

Samurai Flamenco is an amazing show! It surprised me so much and was an utter joy to watch.

Also apparently low stock alert for Wolfs Rain UE (maybe that was already known but just in case)

Why? It’s a NEW TITLE waves hands

But it is a new product! You couldn’t get this movie with an English dub befofe!

Seriously, this has been a huge let down so far. They better have something good and special for the last day.

One day I was okay with . Three not so much

 

[RaeDra]

Very pleased Miss Hokusai is being released with the dub, finally time to pick it up.

This is an interesting situation.

The only difference now is that GKIDS has the Making of Featurette on the Blu-ray (Hanners confirmed on Discord they weren't cleared to use the US BD, which reminds me of the Mirai situation).

Anime Limited has the Making of Featurette as well as the Director Interview on the DVD which I'm surprised was carried over into the limited edition release.

In the end, it basically boils down to "are you a big of a fan to import the US release just to have the 'Making of' in HD".

 

[thedoctor2016]

The DVD is sub only as well. Yes this release is somehow than 4 year old discs thats impressively bad….

 

[João Gomes]

I love how aggressively uninteresting the EBs have been so far lol

Took the plunge on Wolf's Rain before it sold out. Feels good. Feels bad. I don't know how I should feel. Urgh.

TBH I was happy with the one day, its a popular film and the other 4K copies sold out really quickly. More than happy to support AL

3 days of re-releases? Not so much. Especially when today's re-release you could buy the UE of for like.... £15 last year. That came in a nice premium wooden box

Okayu Avatar is my exact reaction to this announcement

 

[Darren Skippings]

The unannounced title tomorrow should be....interesting?
At least it won't be Eva or CCS, So it won't be offensively expensive.

 

[thedoctor2016]

I’m expecting something stupid like B the beginning got for Cardcaptor Sakura. Better be the 4K scan otherwise what’s this wait for.

 

[Azar]

Who else has correctly predicted all 3 so far?

Inuyasha up tomorrow.

 

[thedoctor2016]

Inuyasha’s announced though?

 

[NormanicGrav]

Who else has correctly predicted all 3 so far?

Inuyasha up tomorrow.

Honestly nobody predicted three catalogue re-releases for 3 of the 4 early bird slots lol.

That being said, I do think InuYasha will be on offer this month but probably not for tomorrow. My last prediction is that tomorrow's a surprise announcement and not a already known title getting any special treatment.

Bonus note: If tomorrow's announcement turns out to be Gundam, that makes up for the sale.

 

[Oldmario]

i predict season 1 of Jashin

Spoiler

LET ME DREAM DAMNIT!

 

[SkwigglesWorth]

I shall quietly hope if there sticking with there re-release theme they go Black Lagoon.
