Budgetary Concerns Are Nergal’s Ways
November 17th, 2009
Someone please hold me.
Kidosenkan Nadeshiko BLU-RAY BOX 2010 Feb. 24. Includes TV and Movie and everything else.
I can use a life-size 12yo Ruri Hoshino right about now, Misaki-chan. And oh, there’s a DVD version of the same, but who cares about that? The BD stuff is what I was holding out on all these years! Also, 36,000 yen before tax. Stellvia is also getting a similar treatment for all those Jeff Lawsons out there.
In other news:
- I’m writing a post to follow up, but please give SDS your regards in the mean while. Moe is an interesting topic that I thought I had exhausted as far as my motivation to talk about it, but I guess not. There is something up with this topic when majority of people who belabor this point are often considered, well, trolls. But it also makes it all the more amusing. Maybe that is why it’s a hot troll topic?
- Anime News Network’s Sevakis is in Singapore to cover AFA ‘09, which is the first or second largest anime convention on my blog radar in terms of # of blogs impacted. (What is wrong with you, AX? Or maybe because I ignore LJ?) I normally don’t mention trivial things like this, but this is a good chance for you Singaporean/Malaysian/etc folks to get a taste of what a lot of us have to deal with! But also it’s good to give Justin a warm welcome, I am sure it’s a wonderful opportunity for international relations and unite-engrish-fandom and all that warm fuzzy nonsense. Wink wink nod nod.

I wish that the US industry wasn’t shot to pieces so we could start getting some of these Bluray releases in english as well.
I’m actually pretty optimistic about it, because Star Child is probably more care free about reverse importation and the like, especially on old-but-not-quite-eternal titles like these. It’s just that, yeah, US side isn’t exactly on a hot streak, as Funi are the only ones in a position to publish BDs.
Not that it matters to me or to this purchase!
Oddly enough, I just ordered the Nadesico R1 DVD’s. Maybe the Japanese BD will have English subtitles. I think seeing more subtitles on Japanese BD’s is a very good trend.
whoa ~$400USD for Blu-ray Nadesico, that’s like a frickin’ steal!
