Upcoming Overseas Anime DVD Artwork

Anime Limited really are going full steam ahead into the French market aren't they?

I'm guessing its a shared name/design kinda deal, these guys are snapping things up fast and getting them out faster. I Suppose its one of the perks of not waiting for an english dub. If Andrew sees this i'd love to actually know what kind of arrangement/imput they have in the french releases of titles?

On another note, I'm pretty tempted to pick up that Arise set and just put in the discs from the barebones release Manga will put out

Is that a spec photo or one that has already been purchased? But either way, France sure gets a good deal from licensors when it comes to anime releases.

The controversial Aniplex of America have unveiled their plans for Kill la Kill, with the first volume arriving July 15th which is the same release date for the other recently announced sets.

Ano Hana Movie, TTGL Movies & Kill La Kill all on the same day?
Jesus Christ Aniplex, my wallet's going to take a massive battering for July at this rate. Thankfully nobody else has anything worth buying coming out anytime soon.
I'm fine with buying five $60 sets for KlK. What I'm not fine with is how much space that'll take up. I just hope we get Dual PCM tracks this time.

Are Aniplex of America releases always just region A?

By the way isn't it six sets for KLK with four episodes or do the later ones feature five?

AFAIK every AoA Blu-ray release has been region free. Every DVD release has been locked to region 1.

With KlK given 5 parts, the first one is 4 episodes and the rest should be 5 episodes each in order to total 25 episodes.

Thank you. Excellent news on the region free business.

That Kill la Kill release looks great, wish I had been more impressed with the show. Great work collecting so many images together, people who are posting in this thread.

Mother of Trap Cards...

Exclusive to Amazon US and Canada.

Wish I'd held off on buying the individual seasons now though I shouldn't be surprised given the digimon sets. I wonder how the disc trays will be held in place.

Funimation September artwork may show up this week.

I'm guessing the lack of AB from Sentai is because of Australia (sigh).

Not sure if these are final or not.

Like the image of Revy being used.

Not fussed with Fate Kaleid being A only, I'll just get Anime Limited's release (as long as it gets the usual Collector's Edition style that Bebop and Perfect Blue has).

This is actually one of those moments when the opposite will be true for me. Unless AL have some amazing bonuses I'll probably get Sentai's release as I far prefer their nice clean covers/disc designs. It's the one thing which Sentai almost always gets right.
I'm also not a massive fan of AL's seemingly standardised covers, especially the spines.

Gutted about Love Lab being Region A only. Really enjoyed that show, and I really wanted to own it. Chances of a UK release are slim, I feel... (especially a Blu-Ray one).

1. Although unlikely as a sub only release, it could still be AB.
2. If it is region A locked, Sentai's workaround still seems to work.

Sentai's cover design team with another couple of winners. The F/KL cover does nothing special, but it's still a great example of design.

You are right, it's just annoying. This is why I am looking out for a Region A Blu-Ray Player, but can't find one affordable atm. xD
