I haven't watched my copy yet. What's the subs issue?

It's the live action clip that is missing the subtitles, I don't know exactly what that is but it's supposed to be a parody or something?

The issue doesn't really affect me, as I never watch the extras on any of my Blu-rays, anime of live action, they just don't interest me at all. But, for possible resale value down the road, I'll still probably request a replacement disc.

I'm glad to see some Shuzo Oshimi among the manga titles being offered, there was some other stuff that interested me as well (both manga and LN), I'm also assuming we can use our 10% off Anime Unlimited codes on orders of manga and LNs from AL's webshop? :) I am not massively into the isekai genre bu they are not just offering that so I'm pleased about this :)
 
Got a replacement for full metal panic IV today and this one has a cracked Blu-ray case :( strangely outer box is fine so must have happened before it was shipped

Is there any chance or hope for Anime Limited to license A Place Further than the Universe and Yuru Camp? I noticed that Crunchyroll still hasn't let anyone give them physical releases.

would love both, just looked it up and no Yuru Camp release in the US either? considering how popular the show is that is a surprise.

Symphogear only has 10 fans in the UK and they all imported the Discotech release so neither :p

I think it has more than 10 since in the 2019 Anime UK News Readers' Choice Awards Symphogear won the category for "Most Wanted Anime License". Or maybe those 10 fans were so passionated that they used different email addresses and accounts to vote it multiple times 😆

I assume Discotek Media's release of the first two seasons are region A locked and would therefore require region free player?

It was a joke on how obnoxiously vocal some Symphogear fans can be.

On a more serious note I think someone from Anime Limited said it was unlikely they'd license the series. This was in the Discord server so I'm not sure on their exact wording.

And yeah Symphogear should be Region A. Didn't stop it being a big seller on UP1 though.

Also the fact Discotek haven't released past G yet does raise it being pointless to license until it’s complete. Then it would be 65 eps of something that’s cult but not very widely popular so that’s an issue due to BBFC costs.
 
In regards to Symphogear, there are fans at Anime Limited, but when I've talked to them about it, they've expressed concern about its commercial viability. However, the last time I spoke to anyone there about it, that was before Discotek's release, but also, obviously Crunchyroll being acquired by Funimation. So who's to say how it'd balance out now? Anime Limited have surprised us with some obscure passion projects before - like Bartender recently. However, a title like that doesn't have the prospect of five seasons to BBFC.

I imported Symphogear and G from Discotek in North America, but I'd be delighted if the series was licensed here. I'd file it under the "unlikely but would be great" box in regards to expectations. We know it was a strong seller for them in North America, but there's likely other reasons for GX not being announced yet.
 
Followed up with UP1 yesterday to find out if they would be shipping my SAO War of the Underworld P2 CE soon as I noticed it's in stock on Amazon and UP1 came back to me this morning saying they aren't receiving any stock from AL due to a distribution mixup and most of the stock being taken by Amazon so they've had to cancel my order 🥲😭.

Gutted as I missed the Early bird for this and had gotten it for a little less on UP1 but now gonna likely have to pay full price on Amazon to ensure I get a copy before it goes out of stock again

Ah that sucks man. If you have Anime Unlimited you can still get 10% if you go direct
