Overseas The Aniplex Thread

Here's a random thought that I didn't notice until now. Blue Exorcist: Kyoto Saga and Occultic;Nine have the exact same sort of contents with one big difference - the price.

For six episodes, an English dub, a deluxe booklet, and postcards - Blue Exorcist: Kyoto Saga is SRP $74.98 per volume compared to Occultic;Nine at SRP $99.98 per volume.

In other words:
-- SRP total (and occasional UP1 price) --
Blue Exorcist: Kyoto Saga - $149.96 [~£117]
Occultic;Nine - $199.96 [~£155]

-- Rightstuf total (doesn't cover Postage nor VAT tax)--
Blue Exorcist: Kyoto Saga - $119.96 [~£94]
Occultic;Nine - $159.96 [~£125]

For another comparison, Fate/Grand Order -First Order- is SRP $89.98 for the exact same contents that a Kizumonogatari film has with the difference being the fact that F/GO has an English dub. Usually when a title has an English dub the price also changes but in this case it doesn't.

I just thought that this should be brought up as it's a curious thought.

Did they ever actually show Koyomimonogatari in a way we could access it? Not too much longer until I can be put out of my misery and see the missing parts of the series now :s

Considering it was exclusive to a Japanese app, I believe streaming is out of the question.
 
Good to see we are getting a little more notice for Movie 3 on Kizu, felt like movie 2 was radio silence then announced a few weeks before it released.

Just a heads up for the collector's out there, the currency rate is currently at £1 = $1.35 which effectively means the importing fees are, at the time being, much cheaper than they had been for a while.

Just to give an example, ordering Kizumonogatari Part 3 on UP1US will be £66 and Sword Art Online: Ordinal Scale on UP1US will be £69.

Huh, so Kiznaiver is a Crunchyroll show? Wonder if Anime Limited still have it, I quite liked the show (or rather I liked the characters an awful lot) and would really like to own it but not sure I'd pay that asking price.
 
As mentioned on Discord and in the Bargains thread, we have ourselves another Rightstuf sale thanks to Black Friday. What's really interesting this time around is that we actually have Aniplex sets on sale properly for once.
