My copy of Naruto Shippuden Set 1 CE has been dispatched as well - looking forward to seeing it in person.

This was 8 days ago. What's the situation now? I've specifically made an account on this forum because the website/email communication has been so abysmal/non-existent. Anime Ltd's reputation is irredeemably in the mud for me.

I’m in the exact same position, I’m a very long time lurker who has finally felt compelled to register here to say just how disappointed I am at how the Perfect Blue situation has panned out. I preordered it the day it went live, but because my order also included Diebuster, which ended up being delayed, I had to wait…and wait….and wait.

The lack of any communication to folks who are still waiting for this title has been poor, almost as poor as the fact that enough copies weren’t initially set aside to fulfill preorders.

And now we’re reading new titles are being dispatched to people! That’s the icing on the cake. Getting copies of Perfect Blue to people who bought and paid for them in mid-October should be the number one priority.

I’ve been a long time fan of Anime Limited - bought their very first release day one and have spent probably thousands of pounds on hundreds of their releases over the years, but the way this has been handled has been rubbish.

Lupin Zero (CE) has been dispatched!

Spy x Family CODE: White (CE) has also been dispatched!

As I've mentioned elsewhere, we're currently waiting on other parties to process the returned stock, so beyond chasing them (which I'm doing regularly), there's nothing I can do to speed things up at this juncture. Delaying orders of other products for other people would achieve nothing.

Again, we're incredibly sorry about how this one has panned out, and we're determined to get it resolved, but the idea that we've somehow parked this issue to deal with other products simply isn't correct at all.

Curious if we might see AL exhibit at MegaCon. Haven't attended myself but it's run by the previous MCM owners now their non-competion clause is up. Seems to be getting better feedback too.

Naruto Shippuden Box 1 and Spy x Family Code: White have dispatched. Nothing yet for Love Live! Superstar!! Season 3.

Love Live! Superstar!! Season 3 should be next on the ship list, so wouldn't be too surprised if they shipped tomorrow.

It's definitely something we're looking into (at the very least for attendance and panels) - we love what MegaCon are doing, so it's really more about scheduling and availability on our side (and an event aligning at a time when we have some big things we want to promote there).

So, in short - possibility! But in the meantime our MCM London May plans are very much underway.
