UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

Yup I also went to the screening with a friend that actually has the promo cards because he's been testing the new TCG. He told us that this card is going for crazy money online and that the Americans in particular are furious that the Brits had access to it, especially as many probably will never play the game and it'll sit in a drawer for years to come 😅
Mine is on display at least, no intention of selling it. It's mine! Maybe I'll play the TCG one day too, I'm sure my mate is gonna drag me into it somehow.

America has been getting preferential treatment on Gundam for years. Recent years have been better for us but after ages of being left out in the cold, I feel no guilt over the rare time something works out for us over here instead.
 
Really enjoyed GQuuuuuuX, my only complaint and this is for other similar anime screenings is that the font outline for the subtitles is dreadfully thin, it made it really hard to read the subs in lighter scenes

is this just the font they're given? is there no way to edit that

I wonder if it's just a me problem but it has happened a few times I've gone to alltheanime screenings

I had the same problem with Spy x Family CODE: White and my eyesight is bad enough as is, even with glasses so wasn't the best experience though I picked up on most of it despite not being able to read some parts.

This is why it's fun to see it on IMAX, where the subtitles are the height of a child.
 
Prince Charles Cinema will be screening the Eva TV movies soon. The poster for one references AL, but given it has a dead URL on it I assume it's just a specialty cinema reusing available images. Because otherwise I'd be tempted to prod about the Gundam 0079 trilogy and Char's Counterattack..

I'm glad Eizouken has finally been BBFC'd and may not be too far off. Any news on Blood OVA and Devilman Crybaby? Feels like ages since AL released anything I'm interested in.

I would expect them to pretty much be a Shonen Jump factory until they finish releasing Naruto and Bleach. They've really tied their hands by committing to two extremely long series at the same time.

Adjacently, I'm sure Crunchyroll torching Nozomi isn't helping get any Gundam releases.

I suppose when Crunchyroll is gorging itself in general, getting Shonen Jump shows is a boon for AL on paper.
 
Oh, I'll get the AL-ported-to-US release of Woodpecker Detective's Office if it gets the same packaging over here.

I just received the exclusive steelbook version of the Spy X Family Code White movie in the mail yesterday, so I won't need to get the AL CE.

They are releasing some anime that isn't shounen jump, just not the particular ones I want. Though Vlad Love in an interesting surprise. If they announced that, I must have missed it.

Also, Macross Zero is out Monday according to the AL store. I remain to be convinced, mind, as that listing has clearly gone unattended for a while. It still has the blurb about the early bird price in December 🥴

AL's new blog post is up, revealing April's pre-orders, includes...

  • I'm Standing on a Million Lives (CE)
  • Bleach (Part 5)
  • Woodpecker Detective's Office (CE)
  • Vlad Love
  • A Destructive God Sits Next to Me (CE)
It also includes a first look at the Spy x Family CODE: White (CE)

More titles from the Crunchyroll catalogue which is good to see. I'm down for pre-ordering BLEACH Part 5 and I'm Standing on a Million Lives together. Interesting to see Anime Limited release the latter before Sentai does but on the plus side its both cours together.

The other CR titles I'll stick to standard Blu-rays.

Vlad Love is not something I ever expected to get a physical release. I quite enjoyed it despite it's flaws.
 
I'm baffled that Vlad Love is getting a physical release because it's (sadly) an incoherent, disastrous mess. The first episode was quite promising but after that everything just went downhill and the whole anime ended up being a waste of time. One of the worst shows I have ever seen.
 
Now I'm all confused about Vlad Love.

Only joking, the school nurse seems interesting.
Red head and a potty mouth, simple enough reason to watch.

Same there. And they go up for preorder close enough that they can be bundled together and get free shipping.
