New 5cm per second release date

Amazon have had it down for 28 March. If it's coming a couple of weeks earlier, I won't complain.

Play have it listed for 16 August.
 
As long as it is dvd only then they can change the release date as often as they want as I will not be buying it - I already own the old region 1 dvd.
 
They've been pushing it back as they were aiming to release it at the same time as the BD. Since they've now given up hope on that front there's no reason to delay the DVD.
They announced the new release date a week ago on Twitter

There were some other tweets but having trouble finding them. For some reason scrolling back through twitter timelines brings my computer to its knees lately.
 
Comments sound like highstreet (HMV) hate re-releases and won't stock them.
So we get a 3 YEAR DELAY so that the BD we're not getting would sell 20% more. :x

Well if it was any later they lose even more sales to it coming out in the US again.
How many people hyped for this in '08 will have forgotten completly by now, I've no idea. I suspect the delay was a massive overall loss.
 
Sounds bizarre, given the number of live-action movie BD re-releases they will have stocked by now. Or did they specifically say anime re-releases? Still seems crazy, with how little testing the specific market of BD re-releases has had.
 
It will be the new Bang Zoom dub commissioned by Comix Wave, same as the Madman release.

The delays aren't all Manga's fault - ADV could have released the DVD years ago when they had the rights but for some reason they never did.
