Upcoming Overseas Anime DVD Artwork

[SnowWolf]

We talked about this in the UK artwork thread and by all means remove it if this already exists elsewhere.

Just a few upcoming titles I'm excited about.






And the cover of the Australian release of Cowboy Bebop blu ray part 1. Yep, I think I like the UK version looks better.

I'm up this early waiting for UCAS to open the damn track system (A2 results), so here's some cover arts that have really amused me:

Elfen Lied: Complete Collection + OVA (Blu-ray) - ETA September 2013

Golgo 13: Complete Collection (Blu-ray) - ETA September 2013

Nichijou BD Box [The most epic cover I have lol'd at] - ETA September 2013

Royal Space Force: Wings for Honneamise - ETA October 2013

and some Australian box covers.

 

[Peachy]

Much prefer the look of that Horizon Season 2 cover to the US one.

Elfen Lied looks beautiful.

Nichijou's looks awesome.

A deluxe collection of Haruhi Suzumiya and Rurouni Kenshin?!

I'm intrigued!

Considering that the Haruhi Suzumiya Collection contains:
Season 1
Season 2
The Movie
Haruhi-chan & Nyoron! Churuya-san

$119 is a pretty tame price for Madman.

Rurouni Kenshin $149 for the entire tv series, OVAs and movie isn't too bad either.

Is the Haruhi boxset BD or DVD?

Edit: Seems it's DVD-only. Not for me then.

Does anyone know where i can purchase australian dvd's, i know united publications has some titles, but there are others i'm looking for.
and if so, are there import costs or other specific expenses. thanks

I used DevotedDVD to import the Aussie Tiger and Bunny BDs. Prices are pretty good, and there are no import fees either. Delivery is a little slow, can take a few weeks, but that's to be expected. I definitely recommend them.

Thanks, i've been meaning to get the garden of sinners set, and have kind of lost hope on a uk blu-ray license.

Awesome, been looking for a good way to get Aus titles.

United Publications are good but kinda specific in what they'll stock, anything that's already out cheaper in the US they won't bother with. Looks like I can pick up a complete Toradora box set + OAV in month or so at last

You beat me to the Index Movie artwork, damn. I was going to post it.
I cannot wait for my copy and I really do love the LN art for Index.

My apologises, I was bored and I thought I'll add some JP stuff.

Speaking of 'stuff', Viz could use this cover for their BD releases:

Ranma 1/2 Box 3 BD

Space Battleship Yamato, final chapter BD

Steins;Gate film BD LE

The Future Diary BD front cover

Record of Lodoss War OVA BD

Urusei Yatsura Box 3 BD

Free Vol. 2 BD

Infinite Stratos BD

Red Data Girl Vol. 4 BD

Fate / Kaleid liner Prisma Vol. 1 BD

Gargantia BD Box 2

Code Geass BD Season 1 '5.1ch'

Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods BD

A Certain Scientific Railgun S Vol. 2 BD

Mobile Suit Gundam 'Memorial' BD Box

Star Driver the Movie BD

Oh, and anime-inspired RWBY is getting a Blu-ray release for November 12.

Ranma 1/2 Box 3 BD.

Viz? Good cover art!? Hahahahahahaha! You got me!

In all seriousness, all of Viz's covers are god awful. Their thought process must be "Let's take the Japanese cover/artwork, mess around with it, add some big ugly text on the front and do whatever else we can to make it look as cheap and unattractive as possible."
Look at Accel World for example, and this is probably one of their better ones.

When it comes to the other covers I believe that the Mirai Nikki BD Box artwork you posted is just a placeholder. The Steins;Gate artwork has changed since I last saw it, and not in a good way. I actually preferred the old art. That Railgun S Artbox also looks delicious.

some damn nice stuff they get in Japan, though given the prices they pay I think i'd expect nothing less

Yeah, it's probably a placeholder.

I admit, the covers from Viz have been terrible (Tiger & Bunny and Beginning for example), but the Berserk film covers have been good (Kaze's CE cover of Film 1 was much better though). I'm not sure what design they would go for Descent.

Spoiler

If they went for this design then I'm good, but it's quite spoilerific which is the problem.
