And both seem very overpriced

Sorry AL, but that’s gotta he the lamest CE you’ve done. I hate Digipaks, but if you were gonna use a standard case from the beginning, just do a standard edition.
The only way this could be acceptable be me is if this is a “clone” of the Japanese release- using the same video and audio encode but with subtitles. If it’s a French author, then I’m out. If it’s Justin Sevakis, I’m for it, though.

Nothing really, people are just never pleased. I think it looks great personally, I'm a sucker for clear amarays.

Nothing. I wouldn’t consider it a CE, though. If it came with more physical extras, then I’d be fine with it.
Either way- it’s probabky better than what FUNi will do when they release it.

honestly outside not having the 52p booklet JP came with the packaging is superior here.
I was able to get a look at the JP sets while in holiday, and honestly outside of the metalic print finish they werent that impressive.

It doesn't feel CE to me. And if all 3 are getting CEs I would have liked the spine from the JP BDs like they are each a separate book as it would look cool on the shelf. And its the price no digipack and a cheap clear Amaray and charging £35 thats why I'm annoyed the price no SE and £35 RRP for THAT

Had been curious about this. Kind of a bummer we can't use the code at MCM bur can imagine what a nightmare that would be to keep track of.
"[Promo code]! Gimme my free Geass."
"No."
"Why not?!'
"Because you're the 100th person to quote that code today with no concrete proof you were there."

How much was that event?

I think it was £50. You got some stuff at the screening, and included with that was a code to the BD release.

AL have spoilt us then. I expect from AL for a film a book, and a digipack even E7 had those and that film is ****How is this any different to the CE's Aniplex or Funi do? I don't see what makes this "Not a CE"
Looks good to me. Art cards could be better, but obviously these were the only ones availible.

Chipboard is the hard cardboard AL use for CE boxes.Thank you!

And a digipack is " Digipak cases typically consist of a gatefold (book-style) paperboard or card stock outer binding, with one or more plastic trays capable of holding a CD or DVD attached to the inside."

Chipboard box means the box its being stored in is made from chipboard, which is a sturdy material.
Digipack is a type of disc holder different from a amaray case. It's made from rigid cardboard, and has a disc holder glued inside. They are popular for being able to display large pieces of art on the inside, and outside.

My copy of Kimi no na wa (Japanese Special Edition) is a Digipak. Here’s some images
Plus my copy of Legend of the Galactic Heroes has 4:
It’s the fold outs with extra artwork. I love that the artwork is nice, but I’m not a fan of the build quality, and generally prefer a standard case (preferably a Criterion case).

Also, while I don’t watch dubs, if FUNi releases the film in, say early 2019 with a dub, then this BD will be obsolete. I seriously hope you (AL) know what you’re doing- otherwise this won’t come off good.

I'd say timely access to dubs may be an issue with Funi going forward. AL probably won't get access to the materials until after Funimation have recouped the costs and the rights to the dub revert to the licensor. This shouldn't be an issue with tv series due to their subscription service but will affect movies that did not receive a dubbed theatrical release.
