Anime Blu-ray (UK Releases) - Page 3 - Blu-ray Forum

We can add Un-Go to the list of UK Blu-rays. It's gonna be a double play release.

Also confirmation that each Code Geass set will be 2 discs, matching the French release (same extras too). Apparently the style of animation lends itself to compression or something. Also explains how they can do the release at such a great price :P . It's still supposedly Native HD, in that it'll match the Japanese BDs at least. Indeed, here are a couple of comparisons and they look pretty much identical.
Comparison 1
Comparison 2

Just finished Eden of the East - Paradise Lost. Didn't like the ending at all...Too many questions still unanswered. Bit of a weird series, if I'm honest.

P.S. Previously said King of Eden, my mistake

There's another movie, after King of Eden.

D'oh, I meant Paradise Lost. KoE was the first movie.

Is Ninja Scroll working the way it should? No faults with the disc or anything? Just asking since Manga UK have a spotty track record with Blu Ray

Sky_Captain · 11-24-2012, 10:53 PM

My only issue with Manga BDs, has been them cancelling the effing things.

No issues at all that I noticed on my disc. Just sitting through the Audio Commentary track now.

The English audio seemed a bit quiet when it came to scenes with people talking. Voices were hard to here but everything else was loud.

The 2.0 Jap track is ok too.

Mavrick · 11-24-2012, 11:34 PM

Theres not a specific date for Un-Go yet is there? I'm about to add it to the first post so I'll leave it as 2013 for now.

And is it being released through Manga?

Ath · 11-24-2012, 11:48 PM

No date for now but I'd expect soonish in 2013 since it's out in America. Yup, it's a Kaze title, distributed by Manga.

Neat! Not sure what it's got to do with Blu Ray, but why not.

Bit too many logos and texts on there for my liking but besides that it looks good. Not sure if it looks £26 worth of good though...

Anime is always expensive though. I'd rather pay these prices than the Japanese ones though! lol

I think I paid £25 for Highschool of the Dead

That is true, but this is a single movie. A movie i havent seen. If it was the usual £17.99 or even £19.99, sure, but for £26? dont know about that.

And I paid £12 for Highschool of the Dead... So there

aGsu · 11-28-2012, 06:47 AM

Well there is also the regular version for £17.50
