I imported the JP releases for the first two Heaven's Feel sets, but I have not picked up any of the AoA sets yet. I'll definitely be getting the third JP set next month for the completion of those releases. Thanks for reminding me!

Would love to order the third Heaven’s Feel movie from Amazon JP, but unfortunately Amazon JP still doesn’t ship to Belgium for most items :(

I've tried the DVD one a year ish ago, but DVD collection can vary from 1-7 for some sets wasn't what I would call ideal. Blu ray might be a bit better as there is genrally less discs per set.
But the DVD mix I got was i think gungrave, under the bridge, solty rei, witch blade and I think Paranoia. and all random volumes and the odd one was 2 of a similar volume (but no duplicates), There may have been some other titles but off the top of my head can't rememeber.

EDIT: I also think I saw it mentioned for a previous pot luck that it is just returned stock that had damaged cases or art work or something like that (but the disc are always perfect)

But also as Vincentdante mention appears to be down as empty stock, maybe it'll come back.
If it does come back I might give it a go with it being blu rays.
 
So since Sentai Filmworks licenes include the UK and they go to MVM I think pretty much of all of the time, would this to be right place to question Redo of Healer that's currently airing, and wondering if it'll get a physical release and how the BBFC might handle and look at it. It's not a show I myself have watched but I have seen and know about how much it can be.

While I plan to watch the uncensored version for the same reasons I did with Interspecies Reviewers (research purposes and curiosity), I have seen comparisons between the different versions that Redo of Healer has (there are three), and the second episode alone is enough to provide potential cuts especially when the MC is and I quote "dick slapping a girl in the face".

Sentai will likely release the series uncensored so I doubt their release will be an issue (probably won't get a dub due to the subject matter unless they want to use a Hentai cast or something), plus their sets are geolocked so it'll play on UK games consoles either way.

it's more of a question of are they going to be harsher because it's anime because i'm sure shows like game of thrones include similar things in the show and those released fine on home video
 
I can’t remember any actual pornographic scenes in GoT they show “sex” but it’s implied so not the actual sex. Violence which is why GoT gets 18’s and anime is fine for that.
 
Speaking of Interspecies Reviewer I somehow missed the part where RightStuf would be releasing it under one of their labels and I wonder how that works with Funi and the possibility of the UK getting it (I do highly highly doubt we would/could get it)

I really don't think so. The biggest problems this show has is the premise and how much it will repeat the central concern with its content (basically what's shown, context and the "justification"). Based on what i've read about what has aired, what will likely happen and how its variants differ, there is almost 100% chance that, in it's uncensored form, it will be at least cut heavily if not outright refused for classification (it could be submitted again with presubmission cuts at further expense). There is a whole host of reasons why would this happen and why other comparisons are poor at best but it's better to keep the forum civil so i'll stop there.

I'm sure that press release would be a dozen pseudonyms and, I dunno, Yara Naika? Same thing happened with IR but I don't even think Brittany Lauda would be in this thing.

Is MVM's store the best place to guarantee a preorder? I know people have had experiences with Amazon and Zavvi selling more stock than avaliable, wondering if anyone has ever had that happen with them to MVM?

I've personally never had an issue myself. One time I pre ordered the DVD version instead of the blu ray and they let me return it and order the right one.

Yeah, its pretty rare even with Zavvi and Amazon, although it happened with AOT s3 P2 and the Goblin Slayer LE which sold out in preorders and some pre-orders had theirs cancelled. I'll put my order through with MVM and just hope manga have made enough of the Clannad LE 😬
