UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

So i finally watched cyber city oedo 808 and my thoughts on it are ........................................................................... GIVE US MORE GUNDAM AL. Sorry thought I'd channel my inner @HellCat .

all in all i did enjoy it and is a great example of a product of it's time particularly the dub. Must say however I prefer the Japanese soundtrack and given the desire these day's for more accurate dub's I wouldn't mind going back again like the re-dub of akira.
Wash your muddy-funstering mouth out with muddy-funstering soap ya muddy funster! The Cyber City dub is an all time goddam bite you on the d*** classic!

I'd kinda like to see a modern re-dub of the OG Devilman anime but for some reason I just don't think it'd be as good without an unnecessary f'bomb every sentence 😂
 
Because it came up in conversation elsewhere- still wish we could have seen that Tomino video that was shot for MCM London 2016 but glitched. Just feels there should have been a backup somewhere that could have gone on the blog or something.

Similarly the footage they took that we were told was going on the Japanese blu-rays never got used either.
 
Can someone confirm or deny:
Do Seraph of the End and Heroic Legend of Arslan use the Universal Discs - including French & German language options?
I can confirm that Seraph of the End uses the Universal discs. Unfortunately, I'm unable to confirm anything regarding The Heroic Legend of Arslan as I don't have the release.
 
A couple of frames of the new Cyber City disc, and I am happy. The disc that should have been released to begin with. What's funny is that the documentary contains clips from the first attempt, and it only highlights just how bad that was.
Had a look myself and yeah, it's stunning. Takes me right back to 1994 whenever I watch Cyber City: almost 30 years later and finally it looks perfect. Worth the wait.

Annoyingly, I can't sell the old version as there's no way I can part with the amazing art/info booklet.

UP have stock btw, few quid cheaper than the current AL store price.

The soundtrack CD is a big draw as well. I am not pleased with the way AL handled the Cyber City releases. I wound up spending £50 on one title twice, even with an unimpressive £5 rebate. For me, the first disc was faulty and should have been treated as such.
 
Of the titles announced, the one I am definitely getting that I don't already own (CCS) or have pre-ordered on Blu-ray (GbDonglees) is Jujutsu Kaisen Season 1 Part 2 CE, the price point is as expected and I loved the first half of S1 so will def be buying this :) I looked at Levius on MAL and it has 7.2 out of 10 at the time of me posting this, so I'm not ruling it out, particularly as 2 OST CDs are included in the CE, but I'm not entirely sold on it either... keeping in mind that I really do not expect CGI anime to be Nth level perfect looking and generally enjoy CGI as muc as traditional cel animation and digital cel animation, would people here recommend this series, and how is the OST and the English dub? :)
