Was so happy to watch this when it showed up. Loved it, although overall I thought it was a very sad movie. My girlfriend and I really enjoy Mamoru Hosoda's movies, I think I'm going to show her TGWLTT in a couple weeks. But yeah, the dub for this was really well done, the kids through their different ages were so much fun to listen to, especially yuki.

Does anyone know where to find reviews of JP releases? Princess Mononoke comes out tomorrow (today?) in Japan and was hoping to find a review or two before importing it. Also, does anyone know if the playstation 4 is an all region player like 3 is? So I can actually, you know, watch it?

I don't think the Ps3 was an all-region player, but regardless even if the Ps4 is region locked it doesn't matter for Japanese Blu-Ray's as we share the same region code. Go nuts.

Anime Limited announced they're picked up Escaflowne for release on BluRay and DVD in the UK. At this point they may as well just be choosing from a list of my favourite things ever.

While Amazon is still telling me to expect my copy of Evangelion 3.33 to arrive Wednesday, blu-Ray.com has it listed for the 18th of February. Funimation did say that they were pushing the release back because people wanted to see it(?) but at least it's in theaters in Seattle. Not sure if I'll go though.

It was officially delayed because of the theatrical run. There's actually still no official release date for it now. I'm seeing it twice in the theatres though, so not too bummed out. Sucks for people where it's not playing.

I know it's been in the works for a while, but Jormungand Season 1 and 2 now have a DVD/Blu-Ray release date: February 18th 2014. http://shop.funimation.com/Shop/ShopProductDetail.ss?itemid=78691 http://shop.funimation.com/Shop/ShopProductDetail.ss?itemid=81840 EDIT: Never mind! Apparently the English cast was released back in August. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-08-30/funimation-reveals-jormungand-english-voice-cast-english-trailer Not much of a fan of the dub samples so far.

If you're in the UK (or somewhere that can order from Amazon UK) they have pre-orders up for Garden of Words BD at just over £13, which is less than most new releases. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00HYYHP26/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

They haven't announced anything yet unfortunately, although Eureka Seven was another Bandai rescue that was only announced in December and that's getting released in April, and Funi did just release some Bebop-related merchandise last week. Hopefully we'll see something on Bebop soon, as well as some confirmation that the Outlaw Star release will use the remastered DVDs Japan has instead of the same poo poo masters Bandai used to have.

It kinda sucks how Blu-ray is more delicate than DVDs somehow. I popped out Eva 2.22 to have on while I clean my apartment and the thing won't read in places. I've kept it in the book I keep my discs in and it ended up having a weird ring on the edges. I tried putting in my copy of End of Evangelion just to see if it's the PS4 but that still plays just fine despite being in the same book for several years and being in worse condition in general. Also holy poo poo the picture quality of End of Eva is terrible. edit: Now it hates the Cowboy Bebop movie blu ray but not the extended version of the Hobbit. I think my PS4 is trying to torture me.

Squallege posted:Holy poo poo you're right! I wouldn't count on it; The movie came over and they didn't even bother with a dub (not that THAT matters but it is a pretty good sign of how much effort they wanna put into it) Gunbuster is GORGEOUS on bluray. Like seriously: Every screen is wallpaper worthy I mean it's cell animation so of course but holy poo poo it's incredible. It's so much cleaner and more beautiful than the movie, which seems to have been done from whatever film copy they had of the movie version, not cleaned up from the originals. Diebuster looks pretty good but a bit of the CG elements are kinda groady (especially in the first episode, which was more CG heavy) and I think it's 720p only because of it's source. Still, pretty hot stuff. Srice posted:Gainax have been gradually releasing their older shows on blu-ray for a little while. I suspect we'll see it happen with Eva eventually, but probably not until the movies are finished. If eva gets a bluray I think it'll be last, even though it's one of their biggest shows. If you recall, right before Rebuild started they did "Renewal Of Evangelion" which was a full digital remaster of the series and movies. I'm honestly a bit curious how it'll go, since most of rebuild is under studio khara(?)'s care, and gainax seems to be laying low after losing so much staff.

I feel like a huge dork now because I found the group that distributed the Gunbuster 2 OVAs last May and emailed them asking if they had plans for the blu ray versions. Considering their schizophrenic catalog http://discotekmedia.com/store.htm I doubt it'll happen but whatever, I'm on a Gunbuster kick right now.

I just picked up the Gunbuster soul of choco...co...cho choo 50 bux figure and it's badass. http://www.amazon.com/Bandai-Tamashii-Nations-Chogokin-Buster/dp/B009HMK1NS/ref=pd_rhf_gw_p_d_5 (on a side, dorky/awesome note, they sell a gurren lagann tie in kit with a gently caress off load of drills to attach to the inazuma kick + all the buster collider rods. It's a shame they haven't done a big gently caress off gainax mecha crossover special or something.) If you haven't watched the Gunbuster blurays you really owe it to yourself to watch them. Since it's unlicensed, just track down a copy. The rip on bakabt even has the unmatted episode 6 for interest sake (the ending is hosed up and you can see soooo many missing limbs that they didn't bother to finish full frame.) It would be nice to see a domestic release but I think it'd be a hard sell being 25 years old. drat kids. DamnGlitch fucked around with this message at 11:13 on Feb 9, 2014 |

Reposting from the Cinema Discusso Blu-Ray thread: Can anyone elaborate on the Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day anime series? There's a new movie based off the series that's now released theatrically in Canada & US, and it caught my eye being that it's not something you see every day shown on the big screen. Having only watched a few anime films myself, I've read it's not smart to see the movie before watching the TV series first. Is the series worth picking up as a blind-buy?

Nate RFB posted:Is the Gunbuster set an upscale? I mean... It does not seem like an upscale at 1080p. Or even in that comparison. There's no pixelation just lots of film noise, which is baller. Even that 720p in the comparison is noticeably cleaner and sharper and less stretched than the DVD copy. Diebuster is an upscale if I'm not mistaken; their original CG materials were not done in even 720p so for the CG parts it's really noticeable that those elements are upscaled. I think the animation itself looks fantastic, though again, it seems to be 720 p only instead of full 1080p. DamnGlitch fucked around with this message at 01:33 on Feb 11, 2014 |
