Yup, such a beautiful film. My favourite no doubt. If I'm correct it never got a release in the US and many weren't even aware (and still aren't) of its existence until recently. A massive shame. Super glad that the few people who did see it appreciate it. Makes me happy.
No doubt. It's hard for me to gauge what I actually want out of a higher end release these days. I've always wanted a package that isn't too big so it fits on my shelve but is also sturdy and devoid of audio or visual issues.
I usually go by the idea that if I want a show and a CE or LE exists, its that or nothing. I rarely go for the standard edition. Having said that, distributors of anime generally find it hard to justify the prices and end up throwing in random junk that you don't care about.
I guess in the end I just want the best release possible A/V wise with nice art (subjective of course, but something a bit classy makes sense right?) in a nice sturdy package and maybe a nice art-book or something unique and not something like an OST that I can buy from CDJapan for less or even worse a soundtrack that isn't complete!
Yup this is just the releases for the
3rd. Other key releases are due on the
10th, the
17th and the
24th. I'll post them in a bit or as the 3rd passes
