MVM 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS - Blu-ray arrivals
Exciting package from Japan of one of my favourite J-Rock band. Finally decided to grab the physical set of "THE SIDE EFFECTS", Coldrain's latest studio album release
I love that movie. It's probably my favourite thing that KyoAni have made, with the Sound! Euphonium TV series being a close second.Liz and the Blue Bird I got for a ridiculous 11 eur, couldn't pass up on that. Got Sound Euphonium FR CE on the way, as well.

Love that hype! Eager to watch it, but I think I'll do so only after Euphonium. Didn't know Kensuke Ushio did the music for this, it makes it that much better!
It looks nice.
Thank you @SAHO arrived safely today.
Yeh watched it many years ago... In my top 5 animeIt's a great show and very well dubbed as well, I hope you enjoy it as much as I (and my PA who's a 50-year odd man) did!
It's literally the exact same discs, down to the funimation logo and trailers at the beginning.It looks nice.
Might as well region double dip my Rosario + Vampire soon since I have the US releae currently.
How's the inside artwork and discs like for the MVM version, Rosario+Vampire is one of those series I'm definitely interested in checking out sooner than later.It's literally the exact same discs, down to the funimation logo and trailers at the beginning.
It's a good release and £33 for 24eps is pretty good but unless you just want it for the better quality artwork insert and amaray case save your money and wait until its on sale.
(I bought my brother the US version a few months back and I know how cheap quality the paper & box used are!)
That Liz and the Bluebird set looks beautiful. I have to get around to watching it on the blu-ray player I finally got for my computer for my imported region 1 stuff, a lot of the Kyoani series of which coincidentally now seem to be getting uk releases eg air, kanon and Nichijou. Surely some kind soul will pick this up locally also? Given how well reviewed cryptically this is and how good the series is, I'm gobsmacked that this still has no UK release, and likewise also season 2 and the follow up movie...View attachment 22083
I just decided to ignore all timeline and continuity nonsense and will try to get Gundam stories that could mostly be enjoyed on their own. I need mechas blowing themselves up in my life. This if the FR edition. The first 4 Origin movies are also coming as well as both Thunderbolt movies. I'll try to get AL's CE of Unicorn and try to track down 00 and maybe IBO.

Ah man, my expectations have been built up over the years for this which is never a fair starting point for watching anything so will have to temper them before I get to it heh.I love that movie. It's probably my favourite thing that KyoAni have made, with the Sound! Euphonium TV series being a close second.
Lovely set, very similar to the Japanese standard set isn't it? Loving the jet black cases with the minimalist bright blue text.I recieved this one in the mail today, from Hong Kong:
Neon Genesis Evangelion – Hong Kong Collector's Edition (Region A, with English Subtitles)
Keeping with a similar theme as other region's Evangelion Collector's Editions, the box and cases are very minimalistic. The 16 art cards printed on heavy stock are actually 'bound' into a booklet form, although it appears the booklet is made to be able to pull the cards out if you wanted them separate, like the mild glue holding the pages of a writing tablet together. One nice thing which someone had complained about regarding the group photo, where half of the image was printed on the front and and half on the back of the same card, so you couldn't put the image together - this set has a double-width card perforated down the middle that folds out from the book, so the image is fully intact (see the last photo).
Hmmm I was thinking I would re-watch the series and fit in the movie in chronological order to get a better feel for the movie's protagonists as they do feature heavily in season 2, if I remember correctly. Or I may just watch the movie on its own, having watched the series already a little while back.I've seen all of this recently, personally I would watch main show + final film of the main show. Then I would wait a bit, at least a month or so before watching Liz and the Bluebird. I think I would have appreciated it a little more had I done that, as it's kind of standalone and a bit of a different art style to it, it doesn't need to be watched at the same time as the main series does imo.
