A drawing of Guile from Street Fighter and Guinan from Star Trek TNG in a crouched fighting stance side-by-side, showing the similarity between Guile's hair shape and Guinan's hat shape

Guile... Guinan... Guilenan

Yep, it has English subs for both the 1998 sound renewal and the original theatrical mix, plus it also includes the Bandai Visual dub.

Next up on the JP imports, arriving sooner than I expected, Patlabor 1 on 4K!

Unamused Machu, now in BD quality

How convenient for me that I have fully custom subs for it using that exact style then lol

Some more screenshots, this time of the English subs. Not the usual sub font on subbed Gundam discs from the past. Can't decide if I like this better or not.

What's interesting is there is a lot of extra noise in the background of the OP on the Amazon version, and not just in the shot I posted but also on the title card which has similar art. Almost feels like oversharpening causing them to be more prominent than they should be but I'm not sure.

A couple of comparisons from the BD (1+3) and Amazon versions (2+4). Small animation corrections to the shadows on the BD in the lower right and left. Interested to see if I notice any other tweaks. The BD definitely wins in the compression department though (assuming Bluesky doesn't make it worse)

Gundam GQuuuuuuX Blu-ray Vol. 1

Vol. 1 of GQuuuuuuX on BD obtained! Too bad Amazon didn’t ship Patlabor 1’s 4K with it.

Axl Rose, Duff McKagan, Slash, and Izzy Stradlin are definitely all Gundam names. (Sorry Steven Adler, your name is too normal)

I ended up ditching mine back when Amazon did DVD trade-ins, if you dug around, you could find old item pages for discs that had huge trade-in values compared to the default SKU for a title. Those discs were trading in for $2-3 each normally, but the alternate entries were giving $35-45 each.

All of this came out of literally nowhere, & we were just as surprised as everyone else to learn what’s going on.
Our storefront will hopefully be a new, much less unstable home for our favorite titles and yours.
It also helps support us directly, AND you get loyalty points if you sign up! Win-wins!

All according to keikaku.

Kodansha Manga Academy notice about how editors are no longer editors but henshusha, ironically using a dash where a colon should be, I guess they didn't have a good henshusha

We've been calling them 'words.'
But here's the thing: that's not quite tadashii.

A kotoba isn't a word.
They're something else entirely-
a role unique to Japanese gengo.
And there's no eigo no kotoba that surus it seigi.

So from ima on, wareware tsukau the hontou no kotoba: kotoba.

Sunrise has had that problem with their subbed theatrical screenings for too long. @marcfbr.bsky.social and I saw the Gundam 00 movie at AX 2019 (in 4DX 🤮) and it had issues with subs that got stuck on, disappeared too fast, stacked up weirdly... just a mess. Sucks that it's still an issue.

Added 4 new signatures to my GQuuuuuuX print this weekend.

Remember when David Lynch was in Gundam Wing?

I've been watching the progress on this on and off and it's really impressive just how far it has come already. I've played with some of the released AI models that people have put together for it and it really is night and day. Someone posted a bunch of comparisons last year:

trying to enjoy the warm melancholia of @animeigo.com's release of NOBODY'S BOY REMI, but i cant stop fuckin laughing at the way the dog looks in this one shot 😂

Man with an unusually long chin from the anime ‘Sasuke’

Now that is a character design.

so transparent that if you have an OLED monitor you can't tell if that's the doc or the monitor's turned off
