I can confirm Anime Ltd. never released The Ancient Magus' Bride. That would have been Manga Entertainment for the two parts (1, 2) releases and Crunchyroll for the complete series collection. The OVAs are included in the Part One set and also the complete series collection.

I think @Gigabomb could be referring to the French release, which was released by All the Anime over there. If that's the case, then I had a look on the images of their release and the OVAs appear to be on Disc 1.

Partly true: This only applies to the Blu-ray. All English-friendly DVDs, including DVD-copies in combo packs, are missing the OVAs, despite stating otherwise.
 
There's two narratives here for what happened. Either Crunchyroll forced it on them as part of a deal, or they cared about it so little that they basically gave it away for free and AL wanted to do something very funny.

Most probably the former, but I hope it's the latter.

Even if it's forced on them, giving it a COLLECTOR'S EDITION instead of just a standard blu ray is insane.

There is ZERO chance they recoup the costs of producing it and almost certainly guaranteed it'll be a yearly fixture in their Xmas sales until the heat death of the Universe 😂

The thing is, if it was like £20 or less I would buy it instantly purely to gloat that I have one of the worst anime ever crafted on my shelf. Not sure I'd ever watch it, but it's just kind of funny to own.
 
First it was Kings Game

Now its Ex-Arm

Do they want to release the Island of Giant Insects and Pupa while they're at it...

Hell if Crunchyroll originals are an option. High Guardian Spice is 100x better than Ex-Arm

Announcing the "critically discussed" EX-ARM on April Fool's Day. Well played AL.

Sorry not sorry, but WTF WHYYYY?! 😭 Out of all the titles they could have licensed and given a Collector's Edition they go with f*cking EX-ARM? 🙈 Who the heck will buy this piece of garbage? EX-ARM gets licensed but The Rose of Versailles or Oniisama e/Dear Brother doesn't. I have to laugh, otherwise I will cry.
