UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

Later they mentioned that it grew, so 7 is okay. There is great music there. I am surprised by the addition of Blu-ray discs, which will increase the price - I have them from another box!

Problem I think they will have is the weight of 7 vinyles and packaging will end up with delivery folk throwing it around. So either crushed corners or some of the vinyles going through the inlay cards

Hopefully I can be proved wrong -_-
 
Out of these announcements I'm honestly most excited about Devilman: Crybaby as that is a fantastic show and I called it some months back somewhat, I don't remember the context of the conversation but I mentioned if AL licensed Devilman: Crybaby I could see it likely being a dual UK / US release.

I just hope it does include the dub as that's how I watched it originally but if it isn't, it'll be a shame but I'm glad it's getting a home video release at the very least.

Means nothing. They likely used DCP materials from the French release.

Well regardless, in one way, I find it rather misleading to use the logo before the screening, seeing as it made me believe that they have it for a UK release, but on the other hand, All the Anime is one of the partners for SLA, so they can just about get away with keeping the AtA logo on the screening masters, so on my next SLA, I won't expect a UK release from them just because of the logo appearing before a screening of a certain title because, as you rightly said, they would likely use DCP materials from an upcoming French release. In regards to Galaxy Express 999, I'm guessing @Anime France had the licence prior to November last year.

No you're not missing much. The French branch will have these:
  • Blood: The Last Vampire (Blu-ray)
  • Blood+ (Blu-ray)
  • Galaxy Express 999 the Movie (Cinema -> 4K home video)
  • Adieu Galaxy Express 999 (Cinema -> 4K home video)
  • Tokyo Ghoul 10th anniversary release
As well as Arcane: League of Legends and Macross Zero (these two UK got the announcement prior).

AL made it clear back when Galaxy Express 999 the Movie was at SLA that they don't have UK rights to the films.

Completely missed the French Blood+ announcement! If they've managed to wrestle the license from Sony in one territory maybe there is hope for a UK release.
Shame if it is actually AL for the first few years it'll still be cheaper to pick up the Sony DVD's for £300 a cour going by how the handled Blood-C.
 
Seven months into this year and there is only one release from AL which I'm interested in (Arcane) and it doesn't even have release date announced at the moment I'm writing this 😭 AL, please, give me something!
 
I actually got a newsletter today from AL promoting Babylon, hopefully this means they've sorted out the problem with marketing e-mails and the like.

I've also noticed that a number of sites (AOL, HMV, Zavvi) have delisted Naruto Part 2 and onwards so guessing they weren't supposed to put them up so early.

I also received that email. Hopefully it's back to normal now in time for the August sale and the AnimeUnlimited code! Although, I know people on here are really helpful for giving it out anyway.

Good spot on the Naruto front - although, Amazon still have the Set 2 CE up, if you want to look at the artwork again 😂
Anime Limited will definitely want to debut their own products, haha. There's not as much hype around the second set reveal now.

The collectors edition is really meh imo I expected something nicer like the usual Anime Limited style looks like they are just importing gkids release, the blurays even state region A instead of B on the disk art

Probably explains the quick announcement and preorder, none of the discs or cases seem to have any AL logos apart from the standard blu ray (could be wrong).
So them just putting out Gkids / Shout Factory's release.
Not a bad thing, will at least get QC'd that way 😂

I'd say it's AL heading the designing for the CE. It isn't unusual for the US and UK CEs to be nigh on identical if they're handled by GKids/Shout Factory and AL.
