Overseas The Aniplex Thread

Yeah. They changed their stance so that it's basically complete collection sets unless its an oddity (I suspect Demon Slayer would have been the same but COVID delayed the JP sets so AoA changed plans mid-way).
 
Also it’s more expensive than the SAO Alicization complete set so sorry still doesn’t make sense too me as one of them is actually good. And it’s funny P3 which was actually good in their adaptations is dubless but this train wreck isn’t... and took 2 and half years to release

I wish that one word wasn't enough to be an answer.

While I did enjoy P5 a lot, I can agree that SAO Alicization should and is more popular. How on earth can SAO be cheaper? That's the series that had season 2 sold in 4 part. 4!

Guess we can expect a 2 part AL release at some point or a £100+ 'ULTIMATE' edition.

Oh, and...
maybe don't look at that cover art too closely if you haven't finished the game 🤦‍♂️

That's why I'm glad that no matter what, the AL will be better to get. They are solid quality normally anyway, and don't require forking over anywhere near that much money.

Yeah, that's not exactly a good move there. Even the original cover stuff kept that quiet.

I've watched the 1st half of Demon Slayer and won't be watching the 2nd one. It really didn't grab my attention, I had to force myself to watch it.

Still waiting to hear on the Fate Grand Order series too but since this came first it is probably going to be sometime after.
Wonder if this will get a UK release of some kind of whether it'll only get the standard release treatment like Aprocyphra. Or if it'll get a Uk release at all, since Extra didn't.
 
Your Lie in April returns in a complete series Blu-ray set for 22nd December. The set features all 22 episodes dubbed and subbed like before. This does not include the OVA that was released after the anime came out.

Special Features: Textless Openings, Textless Endings, Audio Commentary by English Cast and Director (Ep.1 and 22), English Bloopers, English Trailer
