124. Good enough. bsky.app/profile/wwxw...

I have to assume the wording on EW is bad because newly-animated scenes? Special Edition has always had additional scenes that the OVA didn't but that wouldn't be new. Only thing I can guess is they're also showing the 30th Anniversary promo, which was newly animated. bsky.app/profile/wtk....

Just watched the brand-new dub of Cagliostro. It's friggin' fantastic. The movie's already a masterpiece, and this is definitely the best dub it's ever had. The cast is just as perfect here as ever, and while I miss some of the jokes from the older dub... overall this version is practically perfect.

Guessing Hathaway 1 and Endless Waltz. Hathaway never got a theatrical release because of COVID, the 2nd one isn't releasing for another few weeks so showing 1 as a refresher makes sense, and Murase did character designs on Wing and directs Hathaway. bsky.app/profile/wtk....

Important update: I have received word from insiders that Crunchyroll executives have deemed the user backlash to be small enough that their subtitle enshittification & OOONA plans will NOT be cancelled, only delayed. I have added an update to the article. There's a summary at the top now too.

Hello there... www.crunchyroll.com/series/GMTE0...

@miketoole.com @ashuraou.bsky.social @marcfbr.bsky.social @dubudavid.bsky.social @schmullus.bsky.social this new #lupinIII #castleofcagliostro steelbook was waiting for me when I got home from work! 3 weeks early 😮 You all did amazing work on this one with all the extras & original dubs included!

Every ad now

My favorite moment at my screening for Angel's Egg was at the start when a guy in my row went "Yellow subtitles fuck yeah!" 😂

please picture in your mind how wide a tennis court could possibly be. nope wrong

Get Project A-ko in the best available presentation on home video!

It's hard to explain just how good this looks. While working on it I was gushing enough that multiple others at Discotek jumped to go have a watch, as if I talk about something a lot while working on it, it means it's special. I'm already likely to say it's my favorite anime 4k disc.

Hard to believe just a few years ago, an SD transfer from an LD was all we thought we'd ever have for A-ko, and now it'll be in 4K with HDR (and it looks INCREDIBLE) bsky.app/profile/disc...

Project A-ko Perfect Collection 4K will be coming soon, because it's already finished. We'll detail it more near release, including (hopefully) a 4K HDR sample & more screenshots in our normal product preview thread. Look forward to A-ko as you've never seen her before.

Then, since we had the disc space, nearly every extra from the 4 normal BDs... Commentaries The storyboards The music documentary Secret File Trailers, Teasers, TV spots Liner Notes, Galleries A few things (English VHS credits, some things that repeat) didn't carry over.

Next up, it says 'Collection', not Edition like the normal Blu-ray. The reason for that is, Project A-ko 2, 3, & 4 are on the disc in 1080p SDR, dubbed & subbed. So all 4 are here.

When A-ko's film was scanned, it was done at 4K in the hopes in the future a 4K disc could be done & now is the time! First... Project A-ko is here dubbed & subbed, in 4K w/ HDR, in both 16:9 & 4:3. This is a gorgeous 4K remaster & the HDR pops. (Screenshots tonemapped to SDR.)

We promised a big announcement today, and it'll take a few posts in a thread to introduce a big one... Project A-ko Perfect Collection 4K! A-ko in 4K is a big deal & this is probably our craziest kitchen sink disc yet, so let's have a quick introduction to what the release will be...

This is actually a perfect clue. Good luck at guessing... www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Uzw...

Tomorrow we have a very special announcement. We will be announcing one title here on social media. This is a big big one that means a lot to us, and to a lot of you. We also have an unhelpful clue for this one in the next post...

There's also a part 2 with even more trucks

Funny Coca-Cola meme that was apparently spotted on LinkedIn

Wow! So cool how BLUE COMET SPT LAYZNER (1985) includes an episode preview right in the OP

Hopefully this will last me a good while for my Plex server...

Found this at the job site I’m working at today. Still searching for Fantasy.

Sources confirm Optimus Prime, aging leader of the Autobots, recently fucked his back all up transforming from his truck form into his person form. paletteswap.site/dif...

Man, look at all those titles you could also own on BD from Discotek that they only bother to mention streaming as an option to watch. And these same outlets will later write articles going "What ever happened to physical media?" ew.com/best-horror-...

New article on ★ daiz.moe ★ Crunchyroll is destroying its subtitles for no good reason daiz.moe/crunchyroll-... A ton of research and effort went into this one. This is the article to read to get to the bottom of Crunchyroll's subtitle changes! Replies here will show up as comments (eventually)

To be fair, they didn't say what year for "early November"...

New Dirty Pair update: replacement discs should be coming in early November, including the fix for the right-balanced audio in Episode 10. Can't complain about fast turnaround on this one.

New episode of The Anime Business is up! This time it's Jerry Beck talking about Streamline Pictures, Akira, & anime in theaters! www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHg9...

There are two kinds of people today. Those who understand their IT person can't magically fix a massive AWS outage that is impacting stuff you wouldn't expect like Adobe Acrobat, and those who don't understand and choose to yell like an asshole and demand you fix it anyway. Don't be that 2nd guy.

Likely suspects pictured. bsky.app/profile/reut...

Legit laughed out loud.

You know, not too long ago as the discs started shipping, I had wondered if the backers of the custom cosplay tier for Dirty Pair had ever gotten their rewards... WELL, GUESS WHAT?
