Eleven Arts have rescued Satoshi Kon's Millennium Actress. Brand new English dub confirmed also.

The film will also receive a new digital transfer. It was once distributed by Manga Entertainment and was dubbed back then. It is unknown if they will include the old English dub for the eventual home video release.

 

[Yami]

Great news, but I would hope that the "new digital transfer" is in fact the new 4K restoration that premiered at Annecy last year.

 

[Lambadelta]

I bet it'll just be the old master with a new filter thrown on it.

Like JP would give us their very best master for anything.

I just dropped my HIDIVE subscription last month because they were supposed to bring out an app for the Roku and never did. To heck with them.

OH **** BOI. ENGLISH SUBS.

 

[Lambadelta]

Interesting decision.

 

[Girls with Guns]

in maybe 30 years we'll have it all on BD.

In 30 years I'm sure they won't even be making Blu-rays any more...

 

[Blaize]

Discotek Media almost certainly have the license and will be announcing this weekend Street Fighter II V for a SD-BD release after a twitter tease.

I was going to share my disdain over not one person celebrating the return of City Hunter's sexual harassment and, instead, having an actual text conversation about Non ******* Non Biyori instead. Then I saw this post, and... <^.^>

I have that old Manga release of Millennium, slipcover and all. The video quality is gash. To think I'll get it on BD, alongside my Maquia & Bluebirdy releases from Eleven/Shout~
