NEWS: Bubblegum Crisis Blu-ray Kickstarter Meets Pledge Goal

The stance that anyone who doesn't know of AnimeSols is just lying about it is stupid.

No, I can't admit it, because Anime Sols has been mentioned quite a few times on ANN, and even got a plug on ANNCast. Again, anyone pretending they never heard of AS at this point is just being dishonest or looking for any excuse to tear it down.

Yeah, I've never heard of it until this very thread. So, yeah, generalize much? Doesn't mean I intend to "tear it down" either.

if the company can't afford to make the BD release themselves, then they should sell the license to someone that CAN.

So if you chip in $50, and the BD set goes for $100 (extras, nice case, etc), then you would've paid $150 for the set and fan that paid nothing gets it for $100. The set still came out, and you both bought one, but one of you is $50 poorer.

In this case, one of the perks is access to previous "extras" - which you would likely HAVE if you bought the previous releases!

Pledging for 'Basic' guarantees (as much as 'guarantee' means anything on KS) you a BGC BD set. There won't be any need to 'pay twice'.

Mr. Sick: Probably, but people have been getting the word out outside of ANN, so...

I'd say it's fairly accurate myself.

Also just look at Creamy Mami, very doubtful Set 2 is going to get funded. http://animesols.com/videos/101, Not even halfway with 5 days to go. Silly, silly setup.

Awwww no, say it isn't so! I pledged for Set 1 and 2 a long while back, I figured it was a shoe-in to get funded the whole way through, but I hadn't checked in on it until just now. My guess is that some of the big donors for the first set didn't go big again for the second (or maybe they expected to receive set 1 first before the 2nd set would go live, and didn't realize the funding for the 2nd set had already started?) Anyways, that's a very disappointing turn of news, I'm very sad to find that out.

Whatever. You're the exceptions to the fans who heard about it. Now either help out or don't.

I agree with Mr Sick. Just because ANN and others are promoting Anime Sols, doesn't mean ANN members have paid attention or know anything about it. There is absolutely no way I can read every news article on ANN or anywhere else. I quickly parse the articles and forums I want to read.
