Thanks Assassinator, I've replied to them since they did mention it should appear on the site when confirmed - perhaps they will make another inquiry.

Got a reply.

Quote:Hi Dan

Thank you so much for the link.

I confirmed that is says English subtitles on the official
homepage from the link you gave us.

The person wee confirmed was our supplier who was providing
the product to us so the information on official homepage
is much more reliable.

I am so sorry that wee gave you misinformation.
The official homepage clearly states that this product will
feature English subtitles.

Again, thank you for double-checking with us.

Sincerely,
Mana Miyamoto

They've yet to change it on the product page, but I guess I don't have anything to worry about now so ~~ yay~! Got to start saving xD

Amiami.jp are selling it with 10% off!

Savings! *-*

Edit: They do things a bit different at Amiami, you don't put in any payment details till they have the product in the warehouse instead of putting in details and paying immediately when it's in the warehouse - this will give me a bit of assurance I won't miss out if I do have the money and can bail out if I don't. And for that reason, I've made my reservation. Yay!

Edit2: "Your order item BD Kara no Kyokai the Movie BD-BOX (Blu-ray Disc) is a high-price special order item and wee would like to have its merchandise price pre-paid."
>> Well that defeats the whole damn point. Back to saving up I guess :[

Dammit, I should've been on #Darkhold yesterday. Would be amusing to see TheFluff raging his donkey off, he actually bought the BD Box.

That doesn't look good.

I ended up not pre-ordering because of worries regarding region lock as it was being indicated in a couple of stores - glad I didn't.

Also, what a total shame ;_;

What good reason could they have not to do it properly?

Whew, I seriously dodged a bullet there. I was actually considering getting this.

Don't know, save money? (upscale is probably a lot cheaper than doing it properly) Or maybe they lack the technical expertise to do it properly (that is, they're too dumb to know how hard they're screwing up).

Ok, they're really pissing me off. Taking fucking ages getting it out, and in the end, it looks like shit...

Wait, would he still encode us the stuff then? At least the epilogue.

Would look crappy in 1080, but still probably looks alright in 720p (better than the DVDs at least).

i resisted from buying this :D

Seems like he will.

720p, which is what I expected, since only a retard will encode this at 1080p (even worse, there are people who encoded AIR in 1080p....)

Usually I'm against filtering bluray sources (well, anything more than very light filtering), but this stuff isn't like the best bluray in history (read: it's shit), and being one of the pioneering encoders in fansubbing (lol), he surely knows what he's doing.

S7* · 03/02/2011 03:25 AM

At least wee'll get something out of them then.. other than the Epilogue of course.

Edit: Still, what about the folks who actually bought it =_=
