Now I'm waiting for news on when the latest Pokemon movie will show in the U.S. It may be called PHANTOM CHAMPION Z, according to one website. A Facebook page I found yesterday claimed it would air on Cartoon Network on November 12, in which case I blew it, but that appears not to have happened. I could find no record of any showing of it.

Anyone hear of anything?

An oddball listing via TRSI since it's so far away (typically assumed as placeholder release date until further notice). EDIT: TRSI has removed the listing.

• Ai Yori Aoshi: Complete Collection - 900 minutes - $49.98 - 6/14/11

Re: Upcoming U.S. Anime Releases - 2011 Edition
 

Hmm, only DVD for Earthsea. It couldn't be that much more expensive to have done a combo pack like Ponyo.

I'm sure I'll be picking it up anyways.

Re: Upcoming U.S. Anime Releases - 2011 Edition
 

They removed Ai Yori Aoshi.

Re: Upcoming U.S. Anime Releases - 2011 Edition
 

From what I know, the movie didn't sell well over in Japan. And as noted before, if Japan don't get a BD release we won't get one here.

It's noted on the original post (of which you quoted). ;)

Is there any projected release for the Haruhi movie, Disappearance of Haruhi from Bandai?

Re: Upcoming U.S. Anime Releases - 2011 Edition
 

I have a feeling the Vocal Collections will eventually consist of more sub-only releases. If I am right it would put a lot of presure on other companies that release sub-only dvds to start dubbing more.

Other Media Blasters titles that have sub-only, I can see the first 3 getting a dub. Girl's High is on Hulu, Crunchyroll, Youtube
Same with Ramen Fighter Miki Hulu, Crunchyroll, Youtube

Girl's High, Ramen Fighter Miki, Princess Princess, Otoboku, Simoun, Sukisho, Tekkaman, Dairugger - Armored Fleet, Beast King GoLion, Dojin Work, Gakuen Heaven, Nighthead Genesis, Sayonara Zetsubou-Sensei, Sentimental Journey, Seraphim Call, Step Up Love Story, Angel's Feather, Aoi and Mutsuki, Blame, Bludgeoning Angel Dokuro-Chan, Cleopatra, I Shall Never Return, Kirameki Project, Madonna, & Magical Witch Punie-Chan

Re: Upcoming U.S. Anime Releases - 2011 Edition
 

First of all, the subbed releases have to perform well enough for them to consider this. Bludgeoning Angel Dokuro-Chan (of which shouldn't be on your list to be dubbed), Kashimashi, Loveless, and Strawberry Panic all have performed better than anticipated (noted by John Sirabella in various occasions). That's why this news wasn't that surprising to me. Still I won't count on this happening all the time.

Girl's High, Ramen Fighter Miki, Otoboku, Simoun, Dojin Work, and Nighthead Genesis are some of the more recent ones I have seen that I wouldn't mind dubbing. Those older works probably don't stand much chance. Sukisho would likely be a no as it performed under expectations (according to JS).

Re: Upcoming U.S. Anime Releases - 2011 Edition
 

I didn't say they all should be dubbed, I didn't even see any of them. I was just pointing out Media Blasters sub-only animes. The only ones I would buy are Girl's High, Ramen Fighter, & Otoboku if they get dubbed becouse they look like they would be good. I am going to buy Kashimashi dubbed I want to see it.

Re: Upcoming U.S. Anime Releases - 2011 Edition
 

Just out of curiosity, but why would anyone here want dubbed releases in the first place?

Re: Upcoming U.S. Anime Releases - 2011 Edition
 

I am very picky what animes I buy sub-only like Clannad, To Love Ru, Indian Summer, Samurai Harem, and my next one I will buy is Koihime Musou. I might buy 11eyes also but I have so many dubbed animes I am buying next year I might not.
