UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

[anime_andrew]

Andrew, I asked on twitter, but I think it got missed, are we allowed to take written notes at the Q&A?

Absolutely! Notes are fine for it so don't worry . It's just video recordings and photos we're enforcing - will let folks know if that is relaxed though too on the day .

Best,

Trying to jinx it?

Love the fact that on that Twitter link there is a multiple reply conversation between someone and Anime Limited France that boils down to them saying "It's in Sunrise's hands, we can only release when we can." and "The champagne will be out when it's finally released in April". It's literally several pages of this thread translated into French.

One question about the Sunrise/Gundam thing- does the deal they currently have with AL determine anything for streaming? Just curious given that UK is on a cliff edge right now if we'd lose the streaming of the franchise on platforms like Daisuki if the physical releases were lost. Sunrise do practice region locking with them.

Found this on the AL Facebook page which was posted a couple days ago (regarding Belladonna of Sadness):

Hi Sam, the latest on this is that our release of the film looks be coming out in April now. However when it comes to the big book that was also part of the offer, we're actually expecting those in sooner. So chances are they will be sent in advance of our actual release of the film, and the film itself will follow as soon as it's ready. Hope this helps

It would truly make a beautiful Anime Limited CE.

Indeed! I'd buy the hell out of a CE for that!

Same, I would definitely buy it if it came to the UK

I'd think @anime_andrew or @Jeremy Graves would've given us a heads up if it was.

Not as far as I know, probably just a stock oddity there!

I want to be mad at AL for, once again, using better artwork for the CE of a former UE, but I really don't care anymore. I'll just have to buy the FMP CE and trade in the three seasons at CEX without the artbox.

Full Metal Panic Complete Collection... All 3 Seasons in an artbox, limited to 300 copies £49.99 from All the Anime, £39.99 early bird, out on 6th March

I went for this as a blind buy
