Re: The old-school anime DVD/BD news thread.
It's not really surprising they'd announced the Aim For The Ace movie, but it's still wonderful to hear. That movie is just about perfect. You know how sometimes you're watching a movie and you think to yourself "it would be exactly right for the movie to end right at this moment, the credits n...

Let's Anime: Arcadia Of My Youth
Only a little late for the film's 40th anniversary comes my look at Arcadia Of My Youth, or My Youth In Arcadia as we used to call it, and how its various iterations have impacted my experience of the film over the years. https://letsanime.blogspot.com/2023/01/vengeance-of-my-youths-arcadia.html arc...

Re: When did American anime fandom and Japanese import game fandom come together?
In the mid 1990s I noticed a lot of the people showing up to our anime club meetings were setting up TVs and playing video games in the back of the room, and I suppose a lot of those were import Japanese games? I was not much of a video game person, and am still not much of a video game person, so I...

Re: Which came out in the US first, Animeigo's MADOX-01 or US Renditions' Gunbuster?
I'm seeing a few other rec.arts.anime posts that copy-paste US Renditions/Books Nippan press releases advertising a release date of Jan. 1 1990 for both Gunbuster and Dangaio. My suspicion is that January 1st was their advertised release date, but whether or not they met that release date is anybody...

Re: Which came out in the US first, Animeigo's MADOX-01 or US Renditions' Gunbuster?
I'd like to see more Gunbuster promo - a trade advertisement would be nice, for one thing - but at this point, if that Animag article is correct then Gunbuster was released before MADOX-01 and I will have to adjust years of incorrect thinking. the earliest I can see anyone discussing the Gunbuster t...

here's Woodhead promoting a sneak preview of MADOX at the 1989 Boston Worldcon: https://groups.google.com/g/rec.arts.an ... Tu1pBpB6IJ
and here's where he mentions a February ship date. https://groups.google.com/g/rec.arts.an ... 2PU9MZQPEJ

Re: Which came out in the US first, Animeigo's MADOX-01 or US Renditions' Gunbuster?
that's exactly the ad I was thinking about, but as it happens, the ad we ran in "Oxygen Destroyer" was for their Riding Bean release. The memory DOES cheat! I did, however, find the Summer 1990 issue of "Animation Velocity" which continued the letter-writing feud between Randall ...

Re: Which came out in the US first, Animeigo's MADOX-01 or US Renditions' Gunbuster?
There's an issue of my anime zine "Oxygen Destroyer" that features a print advertisement for MADOX-01's release, I'll dig it up when I get home and see what it says in terms of release dates.
