I wouldn't mind a mononoke and bebop bluray release.

Also, I definitely want a Haibane Renmei bluray release. I think they have it in Japan already but it's a super special limited edition or something that costs a ridiculous amount of money.

edit:
yep 264 bucks:

Good news! You don't have to pay $600. Bad news! It'll be $400.


hahahaha.

God drat 400 bucks? That's 50 bucks a movie and it's unknown if they're going to improve some of the sucky drawing and provide quality translation and not have atrocious box art.

:negative: God drat it, I have been hoping for a bluray release of KnK and then they pull this poo poo. I would buy it without a second thought for $200 (albeit with bitching). Hope Right Stuf offers a discount after its been out for a bit.

Watch them pull the "There's only a limited collector's edition version" poo poo.

(japanese version, but as far as I can tell the US version will be basically identical except cheaper and including a translation leaflet for the artbook)

That's fine as long as it stays that way. It's still too expensive though.

What's weirder to me is when American releases go out of their way to change the box art, though I think this is a larger problem with video games. loving ICO.

Exactly what I was thinking about. The ICO US box art was terrible compared the the awesome Japanese/Euro boxart.

You dudes here might want to know about this.

Paging TheFluff for further explanation for idiots like me. :ohdear:

Welp. Whatever, I'm not spending 400 bucks on that BD box anyway. It also doesn't look like they worked on improving the animation and drawing either.

Just ordered Redline, Cowboy bebop movie, and Girl who leapt through time. Cannot wait to finally watch Girl, after reading everyone in this thread talk about it. Also very excited about Redline.

TGWLTT is a great movie with fantastic art. I only saw it in dvd quality I think and it'll look fantastic in bluray quality.

How were the UK remasters in terms of image quality? I kind of want to get bebop in bluray but worried funimation will screw something up... Also want some of those extras too like the art books.

Be aware if you got the amazon version, the case may have some cracks/damage. I'm hearing amazon will give back 25% or something like that. My case is broken so I might go ahead and do it assuming the discs aren't defective.

Apparently funimation version may also have issues.

apparently some movies have subtitles which are literal translations of the Japanese, going by the existing BD that are out now. Thats lame if true.
