That's still greed. Mixed with appeal to cheap emotions. Just because the Japanese consumers are so cowed by shiny boxes doesn't mean the rest of us should be. They shouldn't be, either. |

I'm hoping ERASED dub will be released on Netflix.

Only with AoA do three $40 dollars BD discs "magically" become 30 dollars more once put together under a single cover. Or their thinking is that the super special awesome collection of collector's sets were 75 dollars each so a "limited" version of it is worth throwing one of those in for free. I was just joking but that's their reasoning, isn't it? These guys... |

ERASED was really good, but because of how it plays out I don't think i'll rewatch it for quite some time, if ever, so i'll most likely be skipping that one. But if they do something nice for the release I might bite.
Interested in the Madoka set though .
I know reasoning and logic is not at their highest when it comes to discussions regarding AoA on ANN, but c'mon now people, that $149.98 price tag is the SRP, the actual price you'll be paying is $120 which is the same price that the three standard BD releases went for. http://www.rightstufanime.com/Puella-Magi-Madoka-Magica-TV-Box-Set-Blu-ray |

The problem is not the collector's edition approach. That approach would be completely fine if they actually gave collector's edition contents worth that price. What they do though most of the time is trying to sell a few episodes with a small booklet and 2 post cards for 75$. Look at Aldnoah Zero. 4 volumes, 75$ each. That's a total of 300$ for the show. And what exclusive stuff do you get for that abusive price? 8 postcards and 4 small booklets in total. No matter the amount of discs they use, how is that worth it 300$? Honestly, no show should be sold for that abusive quantity, and if they were going to try and sell it for that price anyways, AT LEAST they should include exclusive items that make people feel their money is worth it. I love collector's editions, and I always prefer buying a show with lots of additional stuff and a nice box than a simple plain bluray case. I don't mind paying high prices if I consider the extras I'm receiving are worth it. But I'm not stupid, if they don't give me anything worth it I am not paying 300$ for a show. But they own the licenses of popular shows that people is going to buy anyways, so they can afford asking 300$ for them. You can say to yourself if you want, that you are getting a "exclusive collector's edition", if that makes you feel better, but the truth is you are just paying an extremely overpriced item, and the "exclusive" content is nowhere to be found. |

I was hoping for a USA Madoka complete collection, but at that price, damn. It's awful when you're favorite anime is owned by Aniplex. That's why I'll just buy the Manga Entertainment release, which I think at least comes in a chipboard box. I'd love to buy the special edition with all the goodies, but not at that ridiculous price. Damn you Aniplex.
I also hope Erases gets published on Netflix. I'd love to watch it dubbed and recommend it to someone else. It had very good moments from beginning to end. |

That's debatable. That being said, if they were to hire Taliesin Jaffe (ADR Director of Hellsing, BECK, and R.O.D the TV) as ADR Director, then the success of this upcoming dub would be secured. Though they're probably going to bring in Alex Von David (who ADR Directed Sword Art Online), which also works. Last edited by Raebo101 on Sat May 21, 2016 8:50 am; edited 1 time in total |

...and like too many titles, the Boku Dake ga Inai Machi OST is only available as part of a set from Japan and not sold separately.

I'm ecstatic that Erased will have an English version! I hope the cast will be great.

YES FOR ERASED!
Predicted cast: Johnny Yong Bosch as Satoru - he can play both the young and adult versions of him. Christine Marie Carbaros as Kano Erica Mendez as Airi Mary Elizabeth McGlynn as Sachiko Liam O'Brien as Yashiro Max Mittelman as Kenya Kind of disappointed that Doukyushi doesn't have a dub after being released in theaters and everything. |

They stopped using chipboard a long time ago so it most likely will be the same flimsy cardboard they used for their domestic releases of the movies, hardly worth the 4 extra cents. I bought the TV BD singles and both the import & domestic releases of the movies as they were coming out and made a few changes to those releases so I have my own complete collection and will be passing on this new set since there's nothing really new included. |

Any more, I just assume Aniplex just does not want me to own any of their products. So I oblige them.

Aniplex is going to be the sole reason I get a region-free player and start importing titles from countries where their insane pricing schemes haven't made any inroads.
