when the notification hits that the GB is open later tonight.

Even though my motherland (Colombia) has disappointingly missed out on qualifying for the World Cup, I’ll be glad to join the predicting fun with the psycho fam again! Thank you for the reminder 😄

I’ve been so out of the loop lately with work picking up but I’m glad I found your post talking about it too! You’re 100% right! The LE boxes for each film are quality releases too that I hoped woulda been topped with these premium releases but just came out flat. like the LE Your Name by funimation uses holifoil the way I expected these premiums to have. and although GKids LE Weathering with You has no bossing, it feels so good to hold almost like velvet. For Dr Stone I settled for the steel release but I agree, the LE is beautiful for a studio release!

I completely agree, although I’m happy to have the WEA steels for two great films, I was disappointed with the results. R’s company FS had a great front cover choice but a little effort on the finish especially with the rainbow that’s there could have elevated it. Plus the slim slip surprised me and what I think is an age rating on the spine just ruined it. I love the FS art on Your Name by Kimchi, but if they put a little texture by boarding/bossing the two main characters and maybe the city horizon on the back it would have been perfect. The SL Your Name I was most excited for, it’s such a perfect scene for a lenti. But to me, in my eyes, the effect just doesn’t come through very well on hand, just a slight fading. The colors on the back could have really popped with some extra treatment too!

Interesting that it’s only two editions in the OC, no single lenticular. Looks great regardless.

Paid!

I know it’s not listed on here but: I really hope The Mitchells vs The Machines takes best animated feature. That film was a gem, start to finish filled with incredible amounts of detail.

Thank you for the warm welcome! Love reading all of the insight into different releases on here, anime is absolutely timeless and it’s popularity will continue to grow just like the prices of these CE’s 😂 Although I tend not to collect TV series, I can’t help myself with anime. The nostalgia alone of some classics and instant classics is worth the price of admission. Happy to be here as long as the wallet allows, otherwise I’ll live vicariously through all your pickups!

Woah! Great to see steelbooks back on their schedule! Really excited for the Portrait of a Lady on Fire steel, the art available for that film will make an amazing release

Gracias primo! Yes, I managed to get my hands on the GKids US release, had it preordered when it went live! But it’s exactly the same as the UK since I def see the All The Anime logo on it with the GKids logo haha unless they’re region locked

Hey Anime corner! I’ve lurked a bit in this thread and its been one of my favorite threads to follow. Hope it’s alright to join in on the fun. I’ll share my collection soon enough to get my anime award 😂 @LeGonze you’re not kidding, this thing is freaking HUGE! My order from GKids arrived today and holy… I’m overwhelmed by it haha it’s beautiful. Here’s my copy with a magnet for scale 😅

Glad the wait is over, gold squad represent!

The site not working for a bit there really added to the drama of this renewal cycle. One for the ages. Glad the sites back up, the wait is back on!

watching my notification bell:

This membership renewal/upgrade has been a ride. I’ll take a platinum invite for being top 3 in the MP Champions League contest, hopefully my luck will carry over 😆
