Any idea on if I should replace any of these with the US versions? I’ve got them in UK form unopened. UK versions of Erased, Kill la Kill, sword art season one and all of three, full metal alchemist brotherhood, Rascal bunny girl senpai, FMAB, fate Zero, Anohana, promised never land season 1. These were all UK versions not yet opened. All recently bought. Not sure if any errors have been fixed
Erased, Bunny girl senpai, Promised Neverland and SAO S3 UK BDs are quite good from what I've heard. Dunno about SAO S1.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! What are burned in subtitles? Kill la kill that is
The translations of the Japanese signs are not in the subtitle track, but they're actually burned into the video instead.
Regarding Sword Art Online Season 1, it was authored directly by Manga (now Funimation UK), and unsurprisingly, there were subtitling issues, specifically showing more than one caption at a time, plus poorly placed chapter stops (the lack of chapter stops anyway), most of the Sword Art Offline shorts are missing and the shorts they did manage to include are 50% slower in runtime. resulting in distorted audio, lower pitched voices and juddering animation.
Sorry. I’m half getting it. Isn’t that a good thing since I don’t understand Japanese? Is there a picture example of the difference? Thanks and apologies again for the questions
Good to know. I guess I’ll go with rightstuf on this one as well.
It means that if you were to disable any subtitles, the translation of the sign would still appear because it's baked into the video. It's I suppose not necessarily a bad thing if you don't speak Japanese, but I prefer a soft-subtitle approach.
Ahh gotcha. Ok thanks
Persona 5 BDs looked pretty good, I watched them on a 75in tv and didn’t see anything bad pop out at me, although I don’t own the Aniplex discs so I can’t do an direct comparison, anyone own the Your Lie In April BDs? how do they compare to aniplex discs ?
You are simply built different. Love your Aniplex collection as well as the shelf organisationI have eight Aniplex series on Blu-ray that I've purchased the less expensive UK releases for:
Fate/stay night Unlimited Bladeworks
Kiznaiver
Magi Labyrinth/Kingdom of Magic
Granblue Fantasy (Standard Edition)
God Eater (Standard Edition)
Record of Grancrest Wars (Standard Edition)
Silver Spoon
Your Lie in April
But, I eventually ended up double-dipping with the Aniplex of America sets for all but 3 of those series - Kiznaiver, Granblue Fantasy, and God Eater. So unfortunately, those are the only 3 titles I've even remotely saved any money on! And, for some of the Aniplex of America titles in my collection, I have also purchased the Aniplex of Japan releases if they include English subtitles, so I'm certainly not saving myself any money there!
I actually just posted an updated photo spread of my complete Aniplex US/UK/JP collection over on blu-ray.com two days ago, so I'll copy those pics over here into this thread, to illustrate how much money Isavedlostwastedblew on Aniplex releases over the last 10 years of anime collecting!
