UK Anime Distributor MVM Entertainment Discussion Thread

A nice batch of titles there.

Definitely getting Lycoris Recoil, Tokyo Mew Mew and The Vexations of a Shut-In Vampire Princess.
Gungrave - Will consider, pending CE contents.
Spy Classroom - Not a priority, will wait for an eventual DOTW offer.
Vermeil in Gold - Already own Sentai's steelbook, so money saved there.
 
Great selection of titles.
Unfortunately, I'm not sure what I'll buy.

I've watched Spy Classroom S1. It opens and closes with action but the middle was slow. Haven't started S2.
I thought Gungrave would be ideal for me. After 6 episodes, I wasn't into it.

I also have the Vermeil in Gold steelbook.
Edit I wonder how the BBFC will rate this and will there be cuts? I don't mind age gaps but 500 years!

Already watched Lycoris Recoil. I would probably buy it. A better than average CE would interest me.

Pretty much the assumption when they announced Fate/Grand Carnival a few months back which I just so happened to receive today. Hoping they'll be able to get titles like the Fate/Grand Order Camelot movies, Magia Record and the Rascal movies. If they're able to do self authors like they did with Yuuna and the Haunted Hot Springs then it'd be great to finally see an English language release for Re:Creators.

I just wished it was 2 cour so the first part could have leaned into the cafe setting silliness more!

Well I think that's why they did the mini anime in the end. The extended media (LNs, anthology manga, etc) have all leaned into that too which allows the anime to keep it tight pacing. Be interesting to see how they balance it for the next season.
 
Does Tokyo Mew Mew have any full dub release or not? never knew if they after did a redub since the og 4kids vers never full produced it. ( probably for the best as they had a nasty habit of removing a lot of the context).

Vermil Gold was not one i expected to come to the uk market, i guess there was more interest in it than realised. Nice to see gungrave getting a re-release and lycoris recoil is a welcome addition. Not sure il buy any of them tough.

I expect this is more likely the newer Tokyo Mew Mew series that aired in 2022 especially given it's licensed by Sentai in the US and has two seasons while the original was a continuous run. The image in the announcement is also from the new series.
 
Hmm, Lycoris Recoil - not sure I'm familiar with that series. If it was a Girls with Guns anime I'd probably know all about it by now... 🤔

<--- 🤫

Ahh, would really love to see that series released in a steelbook, I would double-dip in a heartbeat on the Aniplex US box set I already have in my collection! Hint hint, MVM!
