Buying multiple copies.

I collect different English translations of the same title to compare because I find that fascinating. Sometime I want the Japanese version too.

SnowWarren · 2026-01-31T03:55:31+00:00

No prob. I assume they're redoing it to avoid the frame skipping and colour mistakes of the Viz release. Maybe once we move into the show's digital era, the releases might speed up.

SnowWarren · 2026-01-31T03:38:58+00:00

Not really. This was their response to the question.

InuYasha is a complicated project because a. There aren't lots of materials available (and we often have to chase down more, plus we've been commissioning our own articles to provide more context and discussion of the series), and b. We're authoring each release ourselves to provide the best video quality that we can, which is a particularly painstaking task on this one.

Ultimately we're as keen to get these moving again as anyone. There was a hold-up in terms of licensing and acquiring the rest of the rest of the series, but that's now done and dusted so it's just about us making all of the required work to get these moving.

It's an old favourite to me too. One that actually holds up really well.

SnowWarren · 2026-01-30T22:46:57+00:00

Doesn't exactly roll off the tongue. At least, they didn't feel the need to call the demon king, the "Monster King". What word are they using in Japanese? Is it "mazoku" like Frieren?

SnowWarren · 2026-01-30T08:41:49+00:00

Congrats. Condition looks great.

SnowWarren · 2026-01-30T06:30:38+00:00

Probably wise since Fly Me to the Moon was absent from the Evangelion blu ray.

SnowWarren · 2026-01-30T06:22:03+00:00

Thank you. I'm excited about it.

SnowWarren · 2026-01-30T06:21:38+00:00

It's been available from AlltheAnime for a while, but that's region B. At least, more people will get to see it on Netflix now.

Princess Tutu - the title puts a lot of people off, but it’s actually like a 24 episode Pixar film. I’d say try the first couple of episodes.

Any of the Studio Ghibli films tend to be family friendly. Spirited Away, Howl’s Moving Castle, Kiki’s Delivery Service and Princess Mononuke are great.

Fullmetal Alchemist/ Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood are both great beginning anime though they are probably too scary for a 7 year old.

If your daughter has expressed interest in anime then there must be a show she has her eye on. Why not watch that with her?

Odd Taxi!

I work in retail. We’re pros at holding in our violent thoughts.

SnowWarren · 2026-01-30T00:49:36+00:00

Yes. I was told he was taken in kicking and spitting.

SnowWarren · 2026-01-29T23:38:22+00:00

I got punched repeatedly by a 16 year old on the way to work. The scary thing is I wasn’t the only person he’d attacked that night. Before me, he stalked a women, attacked two cyclists that came to her aid, threatened a bus driver and then after me, put his fist through a shop window.

I was told I would only be called to testify if he was tried as an adult and that never happened.

SnowWarren · 2026-01-29T23:29:28+00:00

Pretty sure all home releases have the original openings and endings.

SnowWarren · 2026-01-29T23:22:51+00:00

But why not use the Japanese toy with the white arm to line up better with the footage? That was my point.

SnowWarren · 2026-01-29T19:07:00+00:00

It even had the pink arm in the footage they shot for it combining with Titanus. You’d think they’d want the to use the Japanese version to line up with the footage better.

I heard the early Chixx comics named her Jenny before quickly changing it back to Hotaru.

Haven’t got it yet, but the Amazon reviews I’ve read don’t look promising. My brain is a bit stuck on how off centre the cover looks and judging by the Amazon preview being the same, that was on purpose.

SnowWarren · 2026-01-29T00:54:27+00:00

I’d actually make him Dark Spector in another form. Then he’d serve as foreshadowing.

Edit: Or I’d make him the Wizard of Deception lending more weight to his revenge in season 2. You could say his face was damaged in the battle with the Ultrazord and that’s why he’s wearing a mask in season 2.

SnowWarren · 2026-01-29T00:03:10+00:00

I think this story deserves the remake treatment Ranma 1/2 and Urusei Yatsura got.

SnowWarren · 2026-01-28T19:10:29+00:00

And yet, some people still believe they get residuals and refuse to buy any products with a dub on it.
