Agreed that it's about time. Sadly, it's more of a side story than a true continuation of the plot threads still dangling at the end of the TV series, but it was fun to see everyone back in action.

I didn't even know this movie existed. It's a pleasant surprise.

Just the other day I was saying I'd wish someone would license this. If only it was a real ending though.

On the one hand is good that Sentai is offering this movie, but on other hand is disappointing to learn that the movie is not a true sequel to the TV series; I will have to watch it before committing to buying it.

Also, this gives me hope that Sentai will also release Tamako Love Story.

I wouldn't go into this expecting it to be similar to the show. They made a lot of changes.

It often isn't up to Sentai, Funimation, etc. how quickly they release individual shows, or what order they are able to release them. It's often up to the Japanese companies themselves.

That being said, this film came out in Japan a good year before most of the shows you mention, so my advice is "hang tight".

That'd be great. Would also like to think that this would also open up the possibility of Sentai getting the 2nd Beyond the Boundary movie (Mirai-hen)...which is another movie that is a sequel to the TV series.
