This week sees a a variety of re-releases including reprints of Evangelion films and Fate/Stay Night as well as a complete series release of The Ancient Magus Bride.
Crunchyroll, preivously known as FUNimation UK and formally known as Manga UK, have recently announced a wide, but limited, selection of anime titles that will be making their way to UK audiences during the third quarter of this year.
Anime Limited have recently announced that the feature length Neon Genesis Evangelion films, known as Evangelion: Death (True) and The End of Evangelion, will receive a limited cinematic release on 11th and 14th November 2021 in the UK.
Earlier in the month AllTheAnime unveiled their Ultimate Edition release plans for Neon Genesis Evangelion and during the UK Bank Holiday weekend the Scotland based anime publisher revealed their Standard and Retail Exclusive Editions that will be released alongside the Ultimate Edition. In short, Evangelion fans will have choice and variety with each edition offering something a little different.
After a week of teasing, and many months of waiting, Anime Limited have unveiled what fans can expect from the Ultimate Edition of Neon Genesis Evangelion with initial pre-orders selling out within less than a day.
Unveiled on Friday 20th August 2021 through the special Evangelion website the Ultimate Edition has an early bird pre-order price of £199.99 with the standard RRP being £299.99 and a stock limitation of 1500 which has since been increased to 2500. Additional editions are also planned, but have yet to be revealed.
Amazon have, rather amazingly, announced that they have secured the global streaming rights to Evangelion: 3.0+1.01: Thrice Upon A Time, as well as the previous three films in the Rebuild of Evangelion film series, with all four films being streamed globally, except Japan, from 13th August 2021.
Cloud Matsuri has officially begun and to kick-start the event Anime Limited began with a ‘traditional’ industry panel, followed by a panel on Screen Anime, which – as expected – announced a selection of new titles. Read more of this post
