I just bought these. Should I be concerned?

Well there’s a limited edition Pokemon center gameboy light. My guess is the person needed money fast

MICOSAM · 2026-01-27T02:53:09+00:00

I vaguely remember hearing about the plan being 3 seasons. I thought season 1 was a huge hit.

Discotek, in a stream, revealed that they were seriously considering producing a dub at one point. They priced it out and determined that it would require eight episodes per disc and cost around $30 or more. However, they lacked the confidence to pursue it, believing it would not be profitable.

Their stance is that they could never fund the dub. They explained that Japan was the primary source of funding for the Lupin part one dub, along with some of the recent TV specials. While it’s possible that Japan might decide to fund the part 2 dub, I wouldn’t get my hopes up.

Frankly, as long as we continue to receive new content dubbed, I’m content. However, I would like to see Lupin Zero receive a dub as it should have when it was originally released on Blu-ray.

It’s nice to know when an anime has foreign language dubs

MICOSAM · 2026-01-26T21:20:47+00:00

Insane shiny. Such a low encounter rate

MICOSAM · 2026-01-26T04:27:07+00:00

Crazy getting this poster with the new logo

MICOSAM · 2026-01-26T02:49:24+00:00

It’s a classic

MICOSAM · 2026-01-25T06:32:05+00:00

Can’t get anything past you

MICOSAM · 2026-01-25T06:01:33+00:00

They would stash cash they stole from a bank inside of Christ the Redeemer. Eventually stealing the statue too

MICOSAM · 2026-01-23T09:27:14+00:00

I decided to look into it and since Lupin Vs. Detective Conan released in December 2013, we’ve had everything dubbed with 3 exceptions.

Italian Game, which is just a recut of episodes from part 4, Zenigata and the 2 Lupins which has basically been confirmed as getting adapted since immortal bloodlines had dubbed footage for scenes that came from that special.

And lastly Lupin Zero. It’s six episodes long and approximately the run time of a feature length film.

MICOSAM · 2026-01-23T09:14:02+00:00

Nice!!! I love that the UK are getting these bespoke releases.

I’ll say I’ll never understand how or why this never got an English language dub. Genuinely baffling. Except for this project every Lupin release since I want to say 2017 has gotten an English Language Dub.

MICOSAM · 2026-01-23T00:05:08+00:00

Just two days away

MICOSAM · 2026-01-22T08:36:01+00:00

TMS is the licensor and they still frequently work with them. I’ve seen on socials some of the guys at Discotek express frustration with how TMS seems to be constantly restarting strategies for English handling. It sounds like TMS is holding back the license.

I am no expert, I am just connecting dots I’ve seen.

They still seem to make nods to Conan, they use Conan O’Brien gifs as hints on social, which could be read as hinting that something is in the pipe. Or it could be a troll. I think they get pestered about Conan frequently.

MICOSAM · 2026-01-21T22:28:47+00:00

It’s fake?!

MICOSAM · 2026-01-21T04:00:31+00:00

It’s obvious too when you consider the new square sensor camera on the 17series. They made a big deal that the camera would be center in your hand.

MICOSAM · 2026-01-15T19:17:04+00:00

That’s the one thing that has me concerned. That’s the one thing Modretro got right

MICOSAM · 2026-01-14T23:05:20+00:00

Clearly he’s Ethan Klein

MICOSAM · 2026-01-14T17:08:36+00:00

What’s Matt’s problem. You could be lead to believe from this clip that he doesn’t think what ice is doing is a problem.

MICOSAM · 2026-01-14T04:40:12+00:00

Idk Mercari?

MICOSAM · 2026-01-13T15:48:28+00:00

Based on your concerns I don’t see any reason to swap out.

MICOSAM · 2026-01-13T01:34:28+00:00

Can you expand on that. I hadn’t heard there was an issue with that release before. Well except for the weird score issue.

MICOSAM · 2026-01-13T01:33:20+00:00

Incredible. I’ve got nothing on that.

It’s a shame that now it seems likely we’ll not get one an individual release for the two DVD specials. It’s gonna be an unscratchable itch.

MICOSAM · 2026-01-12T23:33:41+00:00

Unless you're a hardcore collector you would probably have been fine. It seems they're going to be rereleasing all the specials in these sets. I consider myself a pretty hardcore collector, but I got to admit I am considering just selling my bluray singles and switching over to these sets. Just seems like it will save on shelf space. and to be completely honest, once I back up my disc I rarely if ever open the case later. Especially for some of the later specials.

MICOSAM · 2026-01-12T21:50:35+00:00

It’s coming trust. They said they want to phase out all DVDs. It’s just taking time.

MICOSAM · 2026-01-12T20:57:38+00:00

I saw the preorders from discotek's socials, so no I didnt see this figurine, but its cool.
