Eva:1.0 Film Sells Record 219,000 DVDs in First Week
posted on 2008-04-29 05:05 EDT
Evangelion: 1.0 You Are [Not] Alone, the first of Hideaki Anno's four theatrical remakes of the Evangelion science-fiction anime series, has sold 219,000 DVDs in less than a week of sales. That makes it Japan's best-selling DVD release so far this year. It also marks the best record in initial sales of any Evangelion DVD release to date. The two-disc "Special Equipment Edition" package in particular sold the most copies, and even the bonus film strip bundled with this edition is in high demand.

Now Streaming: Jinki:Extend 1-2 (dub)

We haven't been posting many dubs lately, and even fewer mecha shows. Maybe it's time to throw fans of both of those a bone. Here's two episodes of Jinki:Extend, recently reissued by Funimation. That should whet your appetite at least. (Oh, and did we mention it's a late-era ADV dub?) [discuss]

It would feel right at home at 6pm on Nickelodeon after a Jimmy Neutron marathon. Not a bad film, just a pretty flawed and not particularly memorable one, especially for adults. This could've been a lot better than it is.
