Anyone know if the LE included video extras like animated commentary? Or are the postcards and booklet the only differences?

The LE did not include the animated commentaries, unfortunately. Other than that though, couldn't have asked for much more in that release... other than a dub.

July 10! I thought it wasn't coming out until the fall? Well good news for me, and a some little extras as well? I think Aniplex is quickly becoming one of my new favorite anime companies. Very Happy I can't wait to get this sense I missed out on the LE.

Aniplex=super overpriced normally. Can anyone confirm? (60 dollars is about right for this number of episodes;including the OVA episodes)

So what was the point of the limited edition if the only difference is a small booklet and a few postcards.

Well hopefully this drives down the prices for the LE of it on Amazon.
Yes there is at least one copy for sale that's new, at the ridiculous price of $1000...

Nowadays dubs are meant for casual viewers. Oreimo is an ubber niche title so making a dub for it is not profitable in the very least.

According to the product description for the home media release on the JP OreImo site, at least the limited edition DVD version that was released in Japan has the animated commentary. I would think the regular edition would have it to since it'd be really silly to author two different DVDs.

Anywho, the packaging isn't too bad for the regular edition version. Aniplex sure loves their poster pack-ins though.

I would have been willing to accept a mere DVD release if the commentaries had been included, but without them they'll have to at least release it on BD for me to even consider buying it...

They have dubbed some of their shows. Ever hear of Durarara, or Madoka Magica?

They just chose not to dub this one due to the niche nature.

What was that wallet? You want to emptied in July?

Well, as long as AniplexUSA don't decide to keep sales purely to US and Canada, then it shall be done.
