Overseas The Discotek Media Thread (plus AnimEigo)

- Start date
From my understanding it's like Tiger & Bunny: The Beginning where it starts similar but deviates throughout.

Aim for the Ace movie and Kodocha season 2 are definite purchases.
I'm in two minds about A Wind Named Amnesia. It's a movie I have a fair bit of 90s nostalgia for, but the DVD wasn't cheap considering I've only watched that copy once since buying it. Guess I'll double-check the picture quality on the DVD before deciding.
Discotek's June 2023 line-up is now available to pre-order over on Rightstuf. No new additions to what was said back in the stream.

Just Aiko 4 for me for June Discotek releases, although mainly for completionist reasons. I bought the first release pretty much only to see the nice quality video, and the rest I got just to complete the set.

it's a pity the 2 part OVA are by a different company, so weren't included in this license,
Hopefully they will be able to complete the BD release at a later date.
First few posts have been now been updated. I've tweaked the layout of the SD-BD list so it's now grouped by year given the large number of releases.
I do need to update the DVD list as there's still missing entries from early on in the Discotek catalogue.

The effort is appreciated. This thread takes some of the guesswork out of figuring out which Discotek releases are at risk of going out of print.

Urusei Yatsura TV collection 1 on its way from United Publications. Oh. Mah. Gawd. What a time to be alive.
Got Gunbuster and Wind of Amnesia on order, another two early UK VHS releases. For some reason I never watched Amnesia even though I did watch most of what Manga put out on VHS. Even Sword for Truth

Horus: Prince of the Sun (2017) and Star Fleet X-Bomber (2019) are both now out of print (Rightstuf lists as 'No Longer Available').
Funnily enough Star Fleet X-Bomber was the title that held up my late-Jan order (picked it up more as a curiosity than anything else) which also contained some March pre-orders. Fast forward to the end of March and it was the only outstanding title, and back and forth’s with RS CS said it wasn’t OOP but just OOS. I guess that’s another OOP title to add to the list.

Discotek's July 2023 line-up is now available to pre-order over on Rightstuf. We have two new additions to the mix.
Regarding the live-action film, it's part of a Pink film series by Toei and what Discotek has picked up is the fourth one.

Dang, and I just picked up the Discotek Iria Zeiram Master Collection DVD back in December - now I'll have to triple dip on their DVD and the original DVD tin set with Discotek's new Blu-ray release!

It's good to see that they're releasing UY at a relatively fast pace. Having access to the old Animeigo subs must have helped a lot.
