True Tears is something that will surely have some high demand. especially for people who are fans of PA Works anime since this was there first ever series.

So was the previous DVD release of Demon Lord Dante edited? If the previous release was not edited, then where was it edited?

Yaaaay! Jungle Emperor Leo! Sure, I kinda wish they nabbed the 80s anime, but oh well! Its a start! I saw a bit of this film, but never got to finish it. But I'm definitely gonna own it when it comes out! Very Happy

Black Jack movie is day one for me. I know nothing of the Golgo 13 film other than the hilariously bad CGI scene in it. Am sure it's great action schlock so I'll probably pick that up at somepoint.

Yes, and the scenery is very nice.

I just stumbled upon my old copy of the first print release of Leo and was reminded of what a great movie it is. A Blu-Ray remaster is something I never thought would happen, let alone come here, and now, I'm ridiculously excited.

Discotek continues to be the absolute best publisher in the industry.

I was checking on the US Patent and Trademark Office site to see if "Star Fleet" was trademarked for TV shows or movies. This would mean that you would have to ask any of the "Star Trek" rights holders permission to use the name. It isn't and that means a person could legally use "Star Fleet" as the name for a TV show.

Nice job on the rescue of True Tears. Will be interested to see if Discotek does any more rescues of recent shows like this that have fallen through the cracks.

Dear Discotek. While new licenses are all well and good, I'm still waiting on releases for Hi-sCool! Seha Girls and Shining Tears x Wind.

Sweet! Black Jack and Jungle Emperor movies are awesome! Why oh why do I already have to own these? Anyway, I really hope they go after more Tezuka stuff, especially the Black Jack that AnimeSols didn't release all of.

My number one want from them though? Old Ryosuke Takahashi stuff. A VOTOMs re-release would be awesome, but I'd love to get Fang of the Sun Dougram get a release over here!

Golgo on BD is nice, but I hope the artwork improves by release date...

It would be nice if they got the slightly longer ending of True Tears than what was released previously with the Blu-Ray. The English sub release did not include it.

If they do then I'll definitely re-buy it! True Tears would be one of my favorite romance shows ever, even though I was not a huge fan of the canon ending Smile

DiscoTek rescued the license for Demon Lord Dante AND bringing Go Nagai's puppet-based show a US release? Time for happy music!
