You can get S1 for $27.50, and S2 for $15.99 from secondspin if you don't mind used.

New pictures of the AKIRA steelbooks from IVE Entertainment (South Korea). Preorders are scheduled for before the end of November.

Girls With Guns · 11-11-2019, 04:04 PM

I always go for the Korean Lenticular covers - Any English on these at all?

Yes, English subs

I first considered getting just the Lenti but when I saw the artbook available with the 'Premium' FS, I elected to go for the 1-click instead.

Those deluxe sets sure are really cool. But it has become hard to justify taking up that much shelf space for a single movie these days.

I’m just here waiting for the 4k release of Akira that was announced a while back. Doesn’t make sense to me to buy another standard blu-ray release. Just wait for the upgrade; I don’t doubt one of the releases will come with merch just as good if not better than these sets. Waste of money and shelf space imo.

So will these be available for order through Kimchi, or only directly from IVE? I don't see that info anywhere. I must know that pre-order date as soon as it is determined!

The full one-click box set is very nice, but I'm not really interested in 3 copies of the movie, even if it is in a nice box set. Now if that storage box itself was Lenticular, I'd be all over it, lol. I'll just go for the individual Lenticular set to add to my growing KR Lenticular collection - Akira will be the 14th Korean Lenticular release in my collection, to add to the other thirteen I already have.

Your Lie in April complete Blu-ray box has been announced by Aniplex Japan. (Which means a NA release from AoA shouldn't be too far behind)

gundamcero · 11-19-2019, 12:09 AM

I know I'll buy it again. One of my all time favorites.

BigOnAnime · 11-19-2019, 02:46 AM

I sadly was unable to really care that much for Your Lie in April, so if we get the Blu-ray Box, just like the original release, it's going to be a pass for me.

I don't have a FB account but fortunately most retailers do, so it's still possible to read their posts without an account.

Akira Steelbook Specification

Video : 1.85:1 (16:9) 1080p 23.976F
Audio : Japanese DOLBY TRUE HD 5.1ch (192kHz / 24bit)/
PCM 2ch (48kHz / 24bit)
Subtitle : Korean / English

Special Features (Korean Subtitle only)

2001 Making of AKIRA 5.1ch Sound Japanese Version (43:14)
AKIRA PRODUCTION REPORT (47:52)
TV SPOT (00:31)
Theatrical Trailer (02:06)

I'm not buying the steelbook. If they didn't include the crappy 5.1 Hypersonic remix, they could have bumped up the video bitrate to a much higher level like on the recent Italian BD.

Madman will release Anne of Green Gables (Blu-Ray).

Also... Astro Boy (1980) 40th Anniversary Edition. But why on DVD? The 1980 version had a remaster for BD ...

It says 1 disc... But the series was 50 episodes? Strange. Does this mean there is a chance of a region A release?
