Probably not but after noticing the fights in Battle of Gods were CGI (based on the trailer I saw) I can guess they'll be adding 3D effects to those fights specifically in the new film.

Patema Inverted Kickstarter Update:
The pictures of the Standard Edition are shown on the UK Cover Art thread.Patema Inverted Update - Shipments!
It's been a couple weeks since our last update but we have some exciting news to share with you all. So, without further ado here we go!
Patema Inverted Shipments
It's finally here! The time to send out the Ultimate Edition and Standard Edition copies of Patema Inverted is finally upon us. Kickstarter backer copies of the UE and SE will be going out early next week - so you should expect to receive them soon!
I want to upgrade!
A handful of you who wanted to upgrade got in touch with me since the last update with their details. Thank you for being so punctual! If there is anyone else who want to upgrade and haven't gotten round to it, you better move! Your last chance to request this is end of day Wednesday the 19th (tomorrow). To do so, please email me at [email protected] with the headline 'Patema Inverted Upgrade' and I'll make sure to get your order updated.
NOTE: If you've DM'd me on Kickstarter months ago and haven't emailed me regarding an upgrade, please email me as soon as possible. I just want to make sure I've not missed anyone out!
Unfilled Backer Surveys
There are a very few backers out there who have not filled in their backer surveys! Please do so as soon as possible if you want to receive your copy early. I can't send out your copy of Patema Inverted without somewhere to send it!
Wait, did you say Ultimate and Standard Editions only?
Alas yes, the Collector's Edition of Patema Inverted has suffered a bit of a setback. Backers of the CE will still get their copies ahead of retail, albeit a bit later than their UE and SE counterparts. We're sorry for the delay and we know it's not ideal but please bear with us! It'll be worth it
The Collector's Edition will be sent to backers in January 2015.
For the Standard Edition backers thinking: 'Hey, don't we also get the booklet? How does THAT work?' All SE backers will receive the booklet at a later date once it's ready - we will be sending these out separately and at our own expense. So, all Standard Edition backers will have the full shebang, but the booklet will come along a wee bit later than the discs.
Backer Rewards, where are they?
We've not forgotten! We are in the process of sorting this out now - and is entirely our bad, sorry folks. It looks likely that you'll be getting the final product before the other rewards! We are aiming to get them out the door as soon as possible. This includes this digital rewards too.
Great! Anything else?
I think that's it for now! We'll be back to update when we've got some more news. But just a reminders: If you want to upgrade please email me now! If you haven't filled in your backer survey, PLEASE do so by tomorrow so that I can make sure your copy is sent out with the rest!
Oh and one more thing...
We just took receipt of some Standard Edition Patema Inverted discs in the office! Wanna see 'em?

There was actually an interesting article on ANN not long ago about actual hand-drawn 3D anime from the 80s.NormanicGrav said:
Discotek have announced via their facebook page that their upcoming DVD release of Miyazaki Snr's Castle of Cagliostro will carry some interesting extras, including both Streamline and Manga dubs, along with a 'family friendly' edit of the latter. Also on offer is a new commentary track from Reed Nelson of the Lupin III Encyclopaedia and, most intriguingly, the original English subtitle track from 1980.
Perhaps we'll finally find out where that "something of grave importance" line came from...

I was hoping Familiar Of Zero would get the dub treatment, if only for a little of my own piece of mind regarding MVM releasing the next two seasons on BD...
Gingitsune: Messenger Fox of the Gods looks cuter than I thought it was. I'm going to have to look that one up again.
Just noticed TWGOK doesn't say it includes the connecting Tenri OVA's, that's a bummer. In two minds now, seeing as those are vital to the story.

I'm certainly not going to bother with TWGOK s3 without those OAVs as it was too confusing to follow when I tried it out streaming that way. If they're coming later (like with Queen's Blade) I can wait. I'll buy Makai Ouji even though it was sort of annoying, and Gingitsune is a definite possibility.

The only title I'm interested in out of that lot are Zero no Tsukaima 2. I might pick up the new TWGoK release, but as much as I enjoyed seasons 1 & 2 I just don't really care about Season 3.
I didn't watch any of it, and there's absolutely zero buzz around it unlike the first two seasons. Outside of Acchi Kocchi I haven't even heard of the rest of the shows.

It should be more along the lines of "Dub Fans, rejoice for you don't have to listen to Sentai's poorly scripted, hentai quality dubs" They seem to be getting progressively worse as of late. Log Horizon's dub is absolutely terrible.NormanicGrav said:

Yeah, I was trailing out the dub for Sunday without God, it wasn't very good, mostly the voices were the problem. I only watch anime dubbed so it is a shame the story looked quite interesting.

Gotta say the collector's edition of Patema Inverted is the one I backed so I'm massively disappointed it's been delayed 
I think it hurts more that it was a kickstarter and not a normal release as part of the sales pitch was 'get it before its released on Amazon etc' but I guess these things can't be helped. 2 things for AL tho: #1 when you say Jan 2015 please don't mean Jan 31st 2015 (pretty PLEASE) and #2 you need to pray Amazon don't drop the price lower than the kickstarter price for the CE before you ship them because on top of making use wait an extra two months a lower price is gonna be the biggest kick when your down feeling and is maybe gonna make people think twice before backing you next kickstarter as opposed to just waiting.

Hi Jon O Fun,
So are we really but our new printers are at least good enough to say when they know it won't be ready by a date given. This is better than companies that have in past claimed they can do it then delayed repeatedly with no realistic schedule
. It sucks to wait but it will definitely be worth it we can assure you .Now some things to be aware of:
#0 - The sales pitch was before it gets released on Amazon - which is still true. Backers will get their copies before the retail date for each SKU. It's hardly fair (or smart commercially) to hold parts already finished and we're not going to ship Collector's editions out before we've got backers theirs
.#1 - Unlikely to be the 31st, fear not
.#2 - Really, I'm not praying for anything barring a day off to rest at this stage as I've been working solidly with no days off since the start of September for the ends of delivering cool products, events and licenses for folks
. Alas I'm no space wizard - I don't control Amazon but we're not planning on a crazy-crazy deep discount on it before it comes out and Amazon is not really known to go lower than the initial price they set unless incited. The lowest Perfect Blue ever went as my memory goes was £21.99 too, so I'm thinking no need to fret there .Again sorry - delays suck, but it'll be worth it
.Best,
Andrew

I actually tweeted Sentai back when they announced the season 3 license, but I never heard back (will try again). I was hoping the delay with announcing the license was due to negotiations over the OVAs but who knows? To my knowledge, they didn't license the connecting OVAs for To Love Ru either.
(And annoyingly, the Tenri OVAs would have to come first).

Andrew, will those of us who ordered the Patema UE from your store have our copies posted on or around the official release date? I know that backers are supposed to get theirs a couple of weeks before general release but I thought I'd check to make sure. It's not a big deal if I have to wait a bit longer as I didn't back the KS and haven't paid yet.
Exciting news came from Viz Media today:
Naruto and Bleach Box Sets will be reprinted!
---------
In other news, Kuroko's Basketball Season 3 will air on January 10th (Winter 2015 season) and Knights of Sidonia Season 2 will air during the Spring 2015 season.
And as a quick reminder, Aniplex of America have another live show airing at 3am tonight "Release Date Updates, Announcement, Win a Trip to Anime Japan Sweepstakes Winner reveal."
I assume they could announce more titles for the February/March line up. Probably Gurren Lagann Volume 3, Nisekoi Volume 2, Koimonogatari and perhaps.. Day Break Illusion, Magi Season 2, Samurai Flamenco & The Irregular at Magic High School?

Hi everyone. Just to make it known Manga UK will be releasing a standalone DVD and Blu-ray of One Piece Movie 8 on 5th January. (Movie 8 was previously included in the DVD set One Piece Movie Collection 3.) Should be more details on this soon but thought you'd like to know.
