UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

[demiopedia]

@bakura You might want to rephrase that. While I get as frustrated by delays as anyone, no one is paying AL to engage with the community on these forums, so the least we can do is be civil.

Hi guys, sorry for the delay as I've been out of office enjoying some annual leave before my inevitable summer sale breakdown. Also thanks to @Jon O Fun for basically doing my job for me and saying exactly what I would have It's an early bird offer so the product isn't currently on hand, it's a special pre-order price before manufacturing that helps us gage interest and helps our marketing plan for the product before it's released.

Also I completely understand your frustration, but we're going through the same product delays that every UK company is going through and we absolutely want you to have the titles to you as soon as possible. No one enjoys announcing delays but it's an inevitable part of the process. Fingers crossed you get that chonky Gundam ultimate asap!

A little upset about the lack of official clarification about Jujutsu Kaisen S1 Part 2 as if I knew that definitely was not gonna be up for preorder this week I would have bought the Memories CE at EB price. I acknowledge it's not the end of the world but

Fingers crossed that CCS isn’t getting a last minute delay
I assume it’ll get dispatched some time this week for pre orders?

Since when was there a Blood-C Collector's Edition, and what are the odds it will be in people's hands before the Ultimate Edition?

I think the best approach is to assume it'll be delayed and then be pleasantly surprised when/if it actually arrives!

Considering the new release date says from 25th July there is another week before they in theory can start to dispatch.

This is probably their scheduled 'normal' release considering the Ultimate was due in Feb? Mar?

Hmm true

My logic was it says 25th on the store page and last pre order I had just received (Belle 4K) had shipped a few days prior to release rather than on it

Considering the new release date says from 25th July there is another week they in theory can delay it yet again.

Fixed that for you...

Couldn't they have used some different artwork on the box as compared to the Ultimate set? And are they using manga images or something for the box art? Saya doesn't look even remotely like that in the anime.

At this point I'm starting to think AL find out what they're releasing from retailer announcements

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Getting closer and closer to when CCS should be getting dispatched if it’s going to happen this week

Morgan Freeman voiceover: "It was not dispatched that week."

 

[HellCat]

Just had an email saying Dragon Ball Symphonic Adventure has been cancelled, citing "unexpected scheduling issues".

 

[awadama]

I heard a rumour AL had to call the brass section in to help make sure CCS gets out on time.

Still waiting on the Blood-C Ultimate Delay Edition.
