Re: Was the PS1 Votoms Blue Knight game ever been in North America?

I don't know much about this game, but compare these two things:

The Japanese version, listed on eBay:

This version with all-English text and the title Blue Sabre Knights (via Tim Eldred):

Re: The Official Gundam SEED FREEDOM Anime Thread Mk I

I know that anime loves to reuse not only animation but sound effects as well... but the level of plain audio ripoff in this movie is... Many sound effects at beginning are from the early 90ies XCom games. Blaster sounds from Star Wars and most beloved sound of all anime sound engineers (don't ask ...

Re: Evangelion, which is the preferred dub? Netflix, Amazon Prime, ADV???

I asked around to my friends who do the convention circuit as fans and a few who used to go as industry hands, and the story they told is that Studio Khara apparrently attended the US convention screenings of 3.0 in 2013 and were absolutely livid when the convention audiences didn't take the film a...

Re: Evangelion, which is the preferred dub? Netflix, Amazon Prime, ADV???

From what I've heard from those Evangelion fans who care about such things, they seem to consider the ADV Films dub the definitive version of the English dub. A lot of them questioned why the series was redubbed to begin with, and felt the Netflix dub was inferior to ADV's. I can't recall seeing an...

Anime Limited said on their FB page that a standard edition will be released - but only for the movie. The OVA series will be exclusive to the ultimate edition.

Re: Dorvack and the mech genre

Where exactly did the Mech Isekai thing start anyway? Dunbine flopped but proved popular later. Panzer World Galient had to wrap up early. Would Escaflowne be more of an influence? Lets face it, there aren't all that many Mech Isekai anyway. I wouldn't classify Galient as mecha isekai. Jordy is fro...

Re: The Official Macross Delta Anime Thread Mk I

The fan community is VERY confused now... Most of us were thinking that Macross would land at Crunchyroll, given that it recently finished merging with original series licensee Funimation and that it purchased Macross TV series licensee Nozomi Entertainment in 2022. All but a few OVA licenses are e...

Re: The Official Gundam Hathaway Anime Thread Mk I

Does anyone know how long it takes to make an Anime movie? If it entered pre production immediately after the first movie, that may narrow it down. However I seem to remember an older post suggesting Sunrise units were understandably focusing on one project at a time. There's no one answer because ...

Re: Freeden II - Beam Deflection Field

I guess, like the case of unused weapons in some of the later kits, that this is something we would have seen in action had the show not been cancelled.

The GAT-01A1 Dagger was definitely in DESTINY, so this isn't its first animated appearance.

Re: The Official Gundam SEED FREEDOM Anime Thread Mk I

So is there any word yet on international screenings (i.e. Fathom Events, etc.)? No, but this ANN story says the movie is planned to open in 56 countries, which presumably includes the U.S. - https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2024-01-28/gundam-seed-freedom-anime-film-earns-770-million-yen-in-1s...

Do you think all the projects will be Kickstarters? Or will some see mass retail release? No, I wouldn't expect any of them to be Kickstarters aside from Macross II since that's how AnimEigo does all their releases now. However, their releases are also available to the public after the Kickstarter ...
