Viz have posted two dub trailers for the upcoming Tiger & Bunny: The Rising film. Personally, I've got mixed feelings about Golden Ryan's voice.

I know what you mean but I think when your watching it, it will seem more suitable as I think you'll get used to it. I kinda thought he'd sound different to that tbh. I had a feeling for some reason that he'd sound more like Sky High (Deep booming voice). So maybe that's why I think it sounds a bit strange to me. Like I say though sure it will be fine on viewing.

Am I right in assuming Nisekoi still doesn't have a dub? If so I can see Aniplex doing what they did with Blue Exorcist and double dipping later in the year /early next year with a dubbed version. It's not Monogatari and super difficult to dub. (I'm actually still pretty shocked they haven't dubbed it off the bat)

Hello... Aniplex... How can you get people to double dip and give you more money if you release it dubbed right from the off?!?!

Haha of course :p silly me. Allow me to play devil's advocate and say Manga/Kaze should just wait until there's a dub and release it then because ain't NO ONE double dipping on a Manga title let alone a Kaze title.
 
Good price, should be able to lock in for £23 or so. Not bad considering the US volumes would cost more than that for half the amount of episodes. It's a show i'm interested in, and wasn't going to pay Aniplex prices for it.

I just hope it's somewhat a decent disc(s) and it will be an improvement on Manga/Kaze's other releases.

Got a press release: Nisekoi: False Love - Series 1, Part 1, will be released on both Blu-Ray and DVD on 20th April. This first collection contain episodes 1-10. No indication if it is a Kaze release or not.

http://fetch.fm/manga-entertainment/man ... -1-part-1/

Also, Bleach Series 14, Part 2 will be out on 6th April; and Bleach Series 15, Part 1 will be out on 25th May.

That's definitely a Kaze release. The French release contains episodes 1-10 and will also be released on both formats but for 1st April.

Then again, this means that US people will import the UK version and I'll be able to get the Aniplex version without having to worry about it selling out.

Please don't let this release be Shitoge Kazé.
 
On another note, Fetch is doing publicity for Halo: Nightfall???? So Animatsu are doing marketing for Manga but Fetch who do marketing for Manga are doing marketing for Animatsu :S god my head hurts hahaha

That literally just made me laugh out loud in the middle of the office.

Poor Chitoge.

Also, maybe this is a running theme following 'Tetsumi' in the Animatsu Akame Ga Kill trailer...
 
While I know this was probably written by marketing people who have never seen the series and don't know any Japanese, it's still depressing when the companies can't even feign enough interest in their products to spell the names of the characters correctly or get someone to proofread the press releases ^^;

I hope that the actual release won't be another Bakuman-style disaster for the sake of the Nisekoi fans.

Well reading that certainly lightened up my day slightly. Maybe that was what caused the "extreme shock followed by glee" :wink:
I really like Nisekoi, and I'd hope that UK fans get the release they deserve. Can't say that'll be the case in Kaze/Manga's hands though...

Except that was a Sentai trailer. Nuff said.

Kinda a 50/50 moment, it's funny, but god what are they going to do to Nisekoi.

Is it at all possible Manga will handle the UK side I wonder, they seem to have stopped doing the Manga/Kaze joint releases even if they are acting as distributor for Kaze, so perhaps announcing Manga has this will mean they'll handle it all? (Manga aren't exactly on form recently but it's possibly the lesser evil compared to a 100% Kaze prepared release with a Manga logo tacked on)
 
Hahaha, that press release is awful. We don't want it to be but its likely to be telling over how this release will end up. My bf really wants the show but the US sets are way expensive so I'll wait to see how this release holds up & pray the US sets stay in print long enough.
 
Indeed talk about throwing around some names.

But there are other distributors who also need a spell checker, even on there releases, found two strange things on Anime Limited releases. So not only Manga makes mistakes.
 
The spellchecker remark actually puts me in mind of something I've been tutting over.

I bought a second hand copy of Mardock Scramble - the Third Exhaust (NOT paying over £20 for a one hour movie, by the way. And not arguing over it, either.) and noticed, in the back matter:

"They will have to infiltrate the Blue Eggnog, the casino owned by Shell, and find the chip which stores the psycopath's memoriese."

I set type for a living. That rankles.
 
The Kaze blurb print has always been poor - I believe it's auto translated from French, or something like that. Some of the recent Bleach ones are equally laughable.
