Another HIDIVE L

I'm also taking a chance to play on hard mode since they didn't have that when I played it, I felt the game was too easy once you get the hang of it. Though the way I'm playing (doing DLC between arcs, taking advantage of the Community board and meal + EXP upgrades) I don't think improves that much.

I knew they had a part where you play as Prince Vegeta but I was surprised how short it was.
Apparently the Daima ones don't even give you SS4 for the main game? That sucks I wanted to pummel Beerus and Golden Frieza in that form.

The Trunks DLC (which I played when it was released) had Trunks' fight with Majin Buu which was pretty neat. That's just a small flashback in Super's anime and manga.

And in the Tournament DLC, I wanted to fight Chichi haha.

Less likely, but even adding the flashback from the Granola arc in Super's manga wuld have been interesting. I wouldn't like Dragon Ball Minus but that's another thing that could have been done to expand it. I feel it had a lot of lost potential.

I'll play the Daima ones after I beat Majin Buu.

Playing DBZ Kakarot after I lost save data five years ago.
I was hoping for more with the Bardock DLC. It was mostly based on the special from Z. It could have had so much more. I wanted to see Gine, not there. Could've had token appearances of baby Broly, Paragus, Raditz, Tarble maybe even Beerus.

The HIDIVE model of making the service worse and then asking for more from your customers.

I don't like piracy but at least it offers people a means to watch something without having to pay a fortune to resellers.

Annoyed with the "always buy physical media" people. This after Cardcaptor Sakura was removed from Crunchyroll.
The blu-ray has been out of print for a little while now. What are people supposed to do? Even if you buy a lot of blu-rays, you can't buy everything that you might want to watch.

If anything Dragon Ball's Earth is fairly cosmopolitan - until supernatural or extraterrestrial forces the main threats are a dethroned emperor and a criminal army (non-state actors). It also has a capitalistic economy, and a company that made revolutionary capsule technology is portrayed positively

I am not sure the Earth in Dragon Ball has the kind of immigration politics the real world does.
We can see in it that the world is united under a benevolent king, literally named King Furry.

My take on "is Goku an undocumented immigrant?"

YES in the Jaco the Galactic Patrolman spinoff, we see Jaco was sent to earth to get rid of Goku.

BUT Goku still grew up to join the Galactic Patrol, in the Galactic Prisoner arc that recently announced it will be animated.

A Latino-American story.

The 4K remaster of Project A-ko is quite impressive! I've seen it twice before on streaming platforms (admittedly on a small bad TV) and felt like I hadn't watched it before. Good work @discotekmedia.bsky.social

So will GKIDS pass / miss out on it like they did with Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence, or will they try releasing their own edition...

Sweet All You Need is Kill is playing here

That's quite a quick release for North America

Also when I got more interested in anime again my chief interest was in movies and I think those deserve better than piracy (ideally a theatre)

Because telecom services are so expensive here I didn't torrent much because every time I would my parents would be asking why they their Internet bill went up. After that I had less time for and interest in anime, but streaming grew big enough there wasn't much need for anything else.

Got suckered into torrenting again after nearly two decades.

I want to support the industry but if what I want is unavailable, unlikely to get back in print anytime soon if ever, and I have to pay an obscene amount for an old used copy that only benefits the second-hand market what is there to do?

Quite some advertising for Tetris

Thanks, just what I asked for. But I'd like it if the other ones were somehow available to stream somewhere too (Apparently they're on Amazon Video but not in Canada, where Prime Video's anime selection is quite poor)

How about you let the Lupin movies back on streaming before Immortal Bloodline comes out in North America.

Zombie Land Saga: Yumeginga Paradise placeholder listing is up on Cineplex for Crunchyroll's Anime Movie Nights for January 19th.
Probably won't play in my town though.

Waiting to see Canadian listings. Fathom is a hit or miss.

Sounds like it has so many ads at this point that it's less watchable than old-fashioned TV. But I haven't used it in forever.

Placeholder page on Cineplex for the sub and dub went up today (well yesterday, it's 3:00 AM here), with Jan 9th as release.

Most GKIDS movies do come to Canada though a few don't. I know they showed the last Lupin movie here (the CGI one) but I didn't see it since COVID-19 made me shun theatres.

I don't follow the dubs, but for those wondering which voice cast it will use I saw Cineplex in Canada has this listed for a dub placeholder page

@tmsanime.com since Lupin the IIIrd: The Immortal Bloodline is coming out in January, how about making some of the Lupin movies accessible via streaming again.
