...what do the TV stations do with the extra 2-3 weeks? I've never looked into it.
And personally, I think an anime should be exactly as long as it needs to be. If you've got 10 episodes of stuff to say, you should make an 11-episode anime. ...10 episodes of stuff, plus the fanservice OVA. |

I like Sentai's releases, but I wish their subtitles would be a little smaller. It's annoying trying to read the text on a TV.

To the ANN mod/admin who incompetently and unnecessarily deleted my entire post: do your job better. There might have been one part of my post that could have been deemed objectionable but that didn't require a wholesale deletion. I don't appreciate your laziness/poor judgment. Anyway, back to my original comment that shouldn't have been deleted: of course, SouthPacific, you would have been happy if AoA had thrown in a few trinkets, called it a Limited Edition and slapped a 300% mark up on it. I don't even know why you bothered coming into this thread since your soapboxed opinion on Sentai releases is already well known. |

I'm pretty sure I know why he deleted your post & by the tone of your new post you do too  , why he deleted my post is rather odd though... it was easier to just erase the entire conversation I guess.
Like I said before my post was deleted, I directed my statement towards the audio and video issues that Sentai have had in many releases, as well as the subtitles that aren't always what they could be, which is why I mentioned fansubs. And since you wanted to talk about the aesthetics of their releases I did go into the R1 market and how all the other big distribs are trying out new things & adapting to changes in the market while Sentai seems extremely reluctant to just that, change. However, I really can't be bothered to type all of that again, so i'll just leave you with that  .

Like I said before, your soapboxing opinion of Sentai is wellknown. So to come into a thread like this merely to repeat for the 1000th time the exact same opinion reflects a trolling desire simply to be a turd in the punchbowl. Pity the deleting admin/mod didn't pay more attention to that kind of behavior.

So, whether I voice my opinion about the aesthetics of the product, or the FACT that Sentai Filmworks have a long record of audio and encoding problems doesn't matter? Alrighty then... Please savour this read, as it'll be my last reply to you *cue sad music*. Just like I don't try to start a conversation about atheism with a deeply religious person, i'm not going to expect anything new from your posting. Really, you should look up what soapboxing is, because you're bringing it to a whole new level. |

You continue to fool exactly nobody but yourself. That's why so many posters other than myself despise you. You've made it quite clear that your prefer AoA's overpriced, so called "Limited Edition" approach to releasing because that fits in with your general pompous attitude towards anime collecting.
And by the way, that's about your 20th time claiming you wouldn't be responding to me again. Maybe one of these times you'll actually mean it? Won't hold my breath. |

he has stated a couple times and elaborated a bit on his issues with subtitling errors on a couple releases, such as Clannad, so this isn't just a "not an AoA release so it deserves my contempt and disdain" as you are making it out to be Blood-

Yes it is. Here's his original post (the one I originally responded to):
See, no mention of specific QC issues. No doubt he will post something similar in every single Sentai license/release announcement discussion thread and apparently you'll be cool with that. 
Not to mention you'd have to be incredibly naive/unfamiliar with SouthPacific's soapboxing not to understand the inference. Yes, Sentai (along with Funi) is one of the distribs who puts out several titles every year as opposed to a more limited slate. That is part of their business model. No, they don't put out Limited Editions of their titles. That is part of their business model. That's really what SouthPacific is sniffing his nose at. See, buying their titles doesn't make him feel all "special."

then take the high road and just ignore everything he posts. If Dtm42 can somehow manage to ignore you, I'm sure you can do the same

Nah. I'll just continue responding to anything I feel like. Too bad if you don't approve. |

It's funny you say that, because I was just watching one of their releases last night and enjoying the larger size. On my big screen I can agree that they might be a bit larger than needed, but on my smaller screen I thought they were just right. I've seen plenty of BD releases where the subtitles are too small, so I'd personally much rather have them be a bit too large than too small. |
