UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

Is the Anime (Un)limited subscription service worth it for international customers, in any way?

It's not clear to me what AUL offers, besides a coupon code for the current sale and a physical magazine. Not sure what else it does offer through out the year.

You get a 10% off code for all orders plus a 15% off code for sales.

That’s pretty much it but the coupon code for 10% is valid all year round and then you get a 1-time use 15% one for the Christmas sale. So it’s ‘value’ basically boils down to how much you spend with AL over the course of a year.

Ah, good to know! Might wanna crunch over the numbers after a year or so to see if it's worthwhile. Their page indicated "exclusive products" available for purchase as well, but seems like it's either not noteworthy or nothing of that calibre has been put out yet by ATA's team.
 
Gundam Build Fighters arrived today. Thankfully it's VDMS authored (they worked on Cardcaptor Sakura, Inu-Oh, Jujutsu Kaisen & Levius to name a few). My concern was that it was given to Com' On Screen who worked on a few of the previous Gundam titles like Gundam Narrative, Reconguista in G, Zeta Gundam, and Gundam ZZ.

Has nice menus too. Animax English dub is on the disc and it looks like all of the Nozomi extras carried over as well.
 
OK. My copy of build fighters was supposed to arrive today between 11:05am and 3:05pm and still say's it's supposed to be delivered today. What the hell royal mail?

Thanks for checking.

As much as I want to buy this version, can't justify AL splitting the series in two halves. So I imported the US version for much less.

I wouldn't put Blood-C in my collection if they paid me £40 to take it.

Heheh I actually quite liked blood-c and the slow mystery build-up. Thanks to the infamy I had sufficiently lowered my expectations and therefore didn't even mind the ending, which seemed like they were trying to do End of Eva but ended up more with animaniacs. I recall not being as impressed with the movie which was more an action flick than the slow burner thriller that the series was, but then my expectations for that were higher from what I'd read heh.

Blood-C is okay, worth a watch but that's about it. I can't imagine slogging through those first five or so episodes again.

The sequel is somehow worse, an action movie with barely any action; starts well enough then slows to a crawl with more focus on the who-cares side cast than Saya. And that dreadful ending...
