1 & Only Studio Ghibli Blu-ray Thread

[WTK]

How is U.S. fairing on the Studio Ghibli Blu-ray releases versus select countries around the world? As many should know already, we are still quite a bit behind.

Iblard Jikan (music only OVA) and Lupin the III: The Castle of Cagliostro to the overall list. Panda! Go Panda! is also included with a Italian Blu-ray release (no Japan Blu-ray release). The overall list utilizes 8 other countries outside of the U.S. as comparison (AU = Australia, DE = Deutschland / Germany, FR = France, HK = Hong Kong, IT = Italy, JP = Japan, TW = Taiwan, and UK = United Kingdom).

[Hiro11]

I would love to have Castle of Cagliostro on Blu. It needs a bit of restoration.

Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke are Ghibli's masterpieces, what could possibly be holding them up?

[Koby]

I hope the rest of the Ghibli films get released on Blu-ray as well.

Disney is releasing two of the biggies in one go, that is a little surprising.
