NEW: Hana Yori Dango movie. (by HYA)
We know many of you have been waiting for this. If you have pre-ordered, your tapes should be arriving sometime this week.

Please note: the Hana Yori Dango movie was originally planned to be coupled with the live-action Hana Yori Dango movie that Team Abcb is subtitling. HYA and Abcb still plan on making a tape with both movies, but neither of them know when that will be happening. Because the Hana Yori Dango movie (HYA) is only 30 minutes long, HYA filled the tape with... their silliness. More information about it is on their page, so take a look.

The approximate current turn-around time will be posted on the main page from now on.

We're sorry about the delays on recent requests. We're dubbing at our usual pace, but the sorting, packaging, and sending part is taking more time. Not to worry... we are expecting some help this weekend.

AWest ran a SVHS master of Rurouni Kenshin 5-8 on Friday (1/15), but they found some mistakes, so they want to fix them before giving us the tape. The translation notes are filled with historical and cultural facts, so it's very educational.

Title Removed: Fake OVA. Picked up by Media Blasters, so please buy (or rent) it when it's released. Like "Voogie's Angel," the review of Fake will remain on-line, for those who are interested in what the OVA is about.

New Titles: Kodomo no Omocha 1-4 and 5-8 by KodoCha Anime. We'll have a review posted soon.

Title(s) Removed: Rurouni Kenshin 1-4; pre-orders of Rurouni Kenshin 5-8.
AWest was contacted by a Sony rep and were asked to stop distributing Rurouni Kenshin, so we will be pulling it from our list. Apparently Sony is working on getting a US distributor, and the potential client was concerned about fansubs.

The Sony rep said he expects Rurouni Kenshin to be released in DVD format (of course VHS too), with English subtitles and English dub... but it would be up to the distributor. For those who don't know, Sony already has an English dub made.. called "Samurai X," which is quite bad. Hopefully there will be a subbed version. We don't know anything about the release date, since the Sony rep didn't know either. Be sure to buy a copy (subbed) when Rurouni Kenshin is released in the US.
