NEWS: Aniplex USA Offers Madoka Magica -Rebellion- Blu-ray in April

We have absolutely no idea how Aniplex USA is going to release these movies later on as a domestic release (It's Madoka, they are for a fact going to release an R1 release later down the line).

It is fair to call out the price for being ridiculously high, but it has more to due with the Japanese market mindset than anything.

You can believe whatever you want. However, starting the whole "Aniplex of America's releases are overpriced" s*it storm for the 200th time, ad nauseum, isn't going to accomplish anything other than creating a 20 page thread full of nothing but dead horse kicking (what is that point?).

And your proof is......where?

This is reminding me of when several people "knew for a fact" that they were going to be releasing a domestic version of the Garden of Sinners on bluray.

This is odd. I was under the impression that you did not like to spend a lot of money on anime. I suppose you have accepted that buying what you like, even if it is expensive, is not such a bad thing; or you are a hypocrite.

Garden of Sinners was a different story, there was no release beforehand. This is Madoka, one of AoA's biggest properties. They've already released the TV series domestically in three different forms, and right now the LE's are finally selling out on Rightstuf (The second LE got delisted weeks ago).

How much sense would it make for them to not release the movies domestically (And may I remind you the recaps are already sold out?), especially when it's been stated numerous times the third movie isn't the end of the series? The creators have stated they're thinking of more movies and TV series, and if there's a TV series, AoA is most definitely going to be releasing those domestically as they never import singles because it's not viable. Seriously, could you even imagine AoA NOT licensing Madoka (And no Sentai nor FUNi would get it as AoA exclusively gets Aniplex stuff)?

You would need the third movie for any future entries in Madoka to make sense, so they're going to release it domestically.

Don't know why there is an assumption that there are going to be domestic releases of the movies or that they are going to be dubbed.

This is Aniplex we are talking about. It would be nice if we had a dubbed domestic release, but I am not going to count my eggs waiting on it.

But have they outright said it?

This is Aniplex of America. Several of the things they have done in the past haven't exactly made that much sense.

Until they post an unquestionable quote that can be directly linked to, nothing involving them is "fact".

It's like I used to say back on the old Guitar Hero boards on GameFAQs:

"No Link + No Proof = GTFO."

I make no prediction of any domestic AoA release of the PMMM movies having a dub, but as to why there is an assumption that some sort of domestic release might happen:

So far, AoA has offered four titles as domestic imports that I am aware of: Garden of Sinners, Fate/Zero, Gurren Lagann and Oreimo. In all four cases, those domestic imports received domestic releases of some description and the Fate/Zero domestic release even came with a dub.

So yeah, assuming there will be an AoA domestic release of some nature of the PMMM movies is not exactly wild-eyed craziness.

Always surprises me that people actually LIKED that horrific dub. Especially after how God-tier the Japanese audio is in this particular title. Their stuff should be CHEAPER since they don't have to license it from themselves and of course also because there's no dub (which I don't care about because 90% of dubs are terrible now days).

There are options. That's all I was trying to convey to you.

Do you need examples? I can provide them if you like.

Your post is entirely hilarious and baseless. Especially the line about "90% of dubs are terrible", which is beyond funny because you're just making that up on the spot with no support behind it.
