As much as 5 Centimetres Per Second is a beautiful and highly laudable film, this supposition of yours is perhaps of greater interest. (This is because I already own the ADV release, I must note.) To generalise such optimism, it is intriguing to learn of the possibility of popular titles unavailable on R1 DVD being rescued by the company that streams them. (A distributor in my country was preparing to release 5cms⁻¹ this month, but then delayed its release by a whole year due to licensing difficulties. One was under the false hope that'd the film would grace local shelves before R1 ones. It remains to be seen whether the same will happen regarding Summer Wars.) |

Okay, I don't want to freak anybody out, but I'm starting to think I have supah powerful mental powers or something. A few days ago, while mulling over what to get from TRSI's Back to School sale, I decided I would get all of Shinkai's stuff. Voices of a Distant Star and The Place Promised in Our Early Days - no problem. 5 Centimeters Per Second? Big OOP problem. So I thought, "geez, wouldn't be great if some nice entity rescued this title so I could afford to buy it without selling my left kidney?"
And magic presto! Here it is. Bottom line? Don't eff with me, or you just might end up buried in a cornfield if you get my drift. |

Hey, Blood-, you wanna use those mental powers of yours to bring back Maison Ikkoku? I'd really appreciate it.

Later this year, we'll be seeing users on Mania.com posting with signatures reading "Blood- please license Minami-ke, Sailor Moon and Combattler V!!!!!!"
And on good days he'll be kind enough to oblige. |

@TKoH and Myaow: I'd love to accommodate all requests, of course, but as Satan said to Father Damien when asked why he simply didn't break the bonds that were restraining Regan in bed if in fact he was the Devil: "That would be a vulgar display of power."

The Bang Zoom dub wasn't bad, but it just compared to ADV's. Compared to the. Houston dub, BZ's feels a bit flat. I also thought David Matranga fitted the lead better than Johnny Yong Bosch.
It's still good to see it getting released. I wasn't fortunate to get several copies for free from a Best Buy corporate event and still have two left, so I'm good. I am a little worried about the combination of CR production and Bandai distribution. CR is unproven in the market and Bandai can't hit a street date to save their life. EDIT: Had a brain fart at the tail end of a 16 hour shift...lol Last edited by dragonrider_cody on Sat Aug 14, 2010 7:10 pm; edited 1 time in total |

.... Dreams do come true! *shot*
I'm getting this one, for sure. If they release a Blu-Ray version later, I'll get that one too. This is too good to pass up. It's a movie that's oh so close to my heart, that it'd be a shame to not get it. |

Excellent. I hope Crunchyroll can handle doing a DVD release. Good to hear Bandai will be involved.

You've been warned before about turning every thread you post in into a massive complaintfest about lack of dubbing, Mario1234567. (And if you don't remember being so warned, then I'm warning you now.) Besides, as others have pointed out, THIS ONE IS GETTING A DUB!!! Sheesh, man, if you're such a dub fanatic then you should know already that the mention of the involvement of Bang Zoom! automatically means that. At least make sure that you're complaining about something that's an accurate concern. |

I think you mean David Matranga, not Chris Patton. |

Yeah, I realized it after posting, but my droid isn't great for making edits on here. I went back and corrected it. Sorry about that, my brain was fried. |

Since Bandai is involved, expect a September or October 2011 release instead of 2010.
Anyway, I will probably buy it though I already own the ADV release. A BD would be 10x better, but I am content either way. Oppo BDP-83 makes most DVDs look all good and lovely. EDIT: I also would love to see an Eve no Jikan DVD/BD release. Pale Cocoon too.

You know, contrary to what I said earlier, depending on the price tag, I may get this. Even though I already have this, it's R4 and I have to play it through my computer to my TV, and that's not nearly as good as running it through my blu-ray player. So I may rebuy this just so I have an R1 copy.
