The first real consequence from Brexit. Before, Rice Digital used to offer free worldwide shipping. Now look where we are.

Looks like Media Blasters is going to release Yosuga no Sora on Blu-ray now, as well as Yamibo...

Figured most of you probably have seen this, but for those that don't frequent the UK forums or the front page, Eureka announced that they'll be releasing Metropolis (2001) on Blu-ray in the UK in the "not too distant future": https://www.facebook.com/EurekaEnter...type=3&theater

Anime Limited have revealed new box art for upcoming releases.

Empire of Corpses Steelbook


Ouran Collector's blu ray

[zeze]

I might have to get that release of The Empire of Corpses instead of the Funimation release.

[neoz]

OMG that Host Club! I really like that.

[DJ_dub_XL]

And it doesn't have the Anime Limited symbol on the spine or cover anywhere. I wonder if that is early concept art.

None of AL's newer releases have their logo on the spine, the most recent one that did was Ping Pong because the artwork was approved way before the change.

I NEED that Ouran highschool host Club Box! It looks amazing

[BigOnAnime]

What about FUNi's old Blu-ray from years back (the one that BOMBED after the DVDs sold really well)? Personally I like how they did their digipak more. Will be interested in getting this though.

New Anime Limited Releases

The Case of Hana & Alice

~ Continuing the look ahead into November, we have details to share with you about our upcoming release of the film The Case of Hana & Alice. Today we can confirm it will be getting released as a Limited Collector’s Edition Blu-ray/DVD set on the 14th of November.

Our release will come packed in a rigid case, inside that will be a digipack to hold the two discs (1 x Blu-ray + 1 x DVD) plus 3 art cards and a 20-page booklet that features details on the making of this very unique film. You can see a visual for this below.

But that’s not all, as there is quite the unique extra feature included on the disc that is sure to get many of you excited that we need to tell you about. Some of you may not know this, but Makoto Shinkai (Your Name, The Garden of Words, Voices of a Distant Star, The Place Promised in our Early Days) is a big fan of the film and was interviewed for over 25 minutes talking about The Case of Hana & Alice, and we’ve been able to include this in our release! It’s very rare that you get to have a prolific director talking about work that’s not his on an anime release, so we’re delighted we’re able to include this in our release!

Your Lie in April

~ We’re happy to report we’ve cleared approvals on Your Lie In April Part 1 so today we can show you what to expect from our upcoming Blu-ray release!

As we’ve talked about before we’re going to be releasing the series over two parts total. We wanted to maximise as much of the gorgeous art that was available to us as possible, so we’re going to be including an Art Box with Part 1 that will enable you to store the entire series in there, once Part 2 is released obviously. Part 1 will be arriving on the 14th of November. When you receive Part 1 inside the Art Box you will find a rigid case with a digipack to store the two Blu-ray discs. Here’s a visual giving you a glimpse of our release:

On the discs included with Part 1 will be episodes 1-11 in both English and Japanese with subtitles. On-disc extras are an audio commentary of the first episode along with the Clean Opening and Closing title sequences. Some retailers like Amazon, Base and Anime-On-Line have already got listings for this release on their sites, so you can pre-order your copy today ahead of its release on the 14th of November.

For those wondering, when it comes to Part 2 it, it will come packed in a rigid case and have a digipack to store the two Blu-ray discs. In addition to that there will be an art booklet included too, and that will fit inside along with Part 2. We’ll bring you more details on Part 2 as soon as we can share them.

^ That's a beautiful YLiA release. I really liked the show when I watched it earlier this year.

[Sylontack]

I'm so glad we're finally seeing the YLiA art. I went UK in the end because Madman was only doing one box, meaning we'd only get the Part 1 art that AoA had and not the Part 2 art. I'm glad it looks like the UK Part 2 will probably have that Part 2 art (albeit I didn't expect it to be packaged the way it is I just expected a usual AL digipack boxset x2 with the art but like I'll take it ).

[Blu_Ray_Addict]

Nice! Might have to double dip on that Ouran High School Host Club LE! That is how it should be done Funi!

[Girls With Guns]

I'm definitely double-dipping on the YLiA sets - gorgeous chipboard art box and digipaks ftw!

[SnowWarren]

Might as well upload this boxart of Anime Limited's upcoming releases.

Reconguista is GORGEOUS. Price and shelf space concerns will point me in the direction of the US release as usual, though.

No news but it's just a matter of time. Might be late 2017 though.
