The clue was all about the a for Project A-ko.

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...

Cyborg 009 vs. Devilman looks pretty solid. It's a relatively modern production and just looks nice. Japanese audio w/ subs are here, as is the previously streaming English dub. A few screenshot examples.

Higurashi: When They Cry is loved for its characters, to say nothing of the violent edge, mystery of what's happening. And if you haven't seen it yet, it'll throw you for a loop... store.crunchyroll.com/products/hig...

Extras for Higurashi are the Clean OP & ED.

Higurashi uses the existing upscale. A bit soft, a bit jaggy, but a fine enough watch. Japanese audio is here with heavily improved subtitles, plus the classic English dub! A few screenshot examples.

It's a bit complicated what is on the disc, so let's go over it... The sequels in their OVA forms... Urotsukidoji 2 is 2 episodes, 3 is 4 episodes, 4 is 3 episodes... The last, Urotsukidoji 5 (1 episode), hasn't ever had a subbed release before this.

Ouran has many extras, it's nearly a kitchen sink disc: A Behind the Scenes that runs over an hour Extensive cast interviews Cast wrap videos & outtakes An episode length drama taking place before the film Cast greeting events Trailers & TV Spots A 'Theater Manners' promo video

Ouran looks pretty solid, there isn't much to say about the video quality as it's a reasonably modern production. Audio is 5.1 Japanese, with subtitles. Some screenshot examples.

Special Rescue Exceedraft continues the Metal Hero tradition of great action, special weapons, & vehicles. We wave goodbye to the Rescue Heroes with one that cranks the weird up to high more and more as you watch it! store.crunchyroll.com/products/spe...

Exceedraft has decent video. It's roughly in the same vein of Winspector & Solbrain of looking like a generally solid older remaster. A few screenshot examples. Exceedraft has a series promo as an extra.

Special Rescue Exceedraft is up to pre-order! Protecting Japan from crime has been normal for the Rescue Heroes. But in the final series, things are going to get apocalyptic if the new Metal Heroes can't stand up to the example of Winspector & Solbrain. store.crunchyroll.com/products/spe...

Also available at: MediaOCD www.mediaocd.com/product-page... Amazon www.amazon.com/Shin-Chan-Co...

Shin Chan: The Complete English Series is a comedy that pushes things with Shin Chan who just wants to impress the hotties & the rest of a town full of weirdos. It's a fun watch, but watch out for Mr. Elephant... he'll probably try and pee on you. store.crunchyroll.com/products/shi...

Shin Chan has a nice selection of extras: Four Cast & Crew Commentaries From the Bowels of the Booth- Alternate Takes, Bloopers, & more! Cast Auditions Clean Ending & More! Every episode has optional captions if you need or want them!

Shin Chan is rough due to the way it was produced, combining JP episodes, retiming video, & so forth. Most of the show is 4:3. The 16:9 episodes were done in lower resolution letterboxed. These episodes are now encoded in widescreen Some previews of both types of episodes.

Shin Chan: The Complete English Series is out! The late-night comedy adaptation was a favorite for those who stayed up to watch the strange & weird adventures of Shin Chan & his friends. The entire 78 episode series is here! store.crunchyroll.com/products/shi... www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhfW...

Kamen Rider Amazon was a shorter Kamen Rider series that distilled the action & designwork for a unique take that still stands out. It still holds up as a great watch. store.crunchyroll.com/products/kam...
