Marzan Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 A true anime classic by Gainax will come out in BD in october. Although the Bandai and Madman DVD releases are excellent, the temptation to get this one in BD quality will be strong. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-06-27/maiden-japan-to-release-royal-space-force-film-on-dvd/bd-in-october Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tochiro Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Already have Bandais superb stand alone BD release of this but it's great that this classic will be available to a wider audience once again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Already have the Bandai Visual / Honneamise Honneamise (lol) Blu Ray / DVD combo released domestically a few years ago. But I may pick this up just to support such an awesome license rescue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, because Ichiro Itano was completely unknown before Honneamise...... :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loop Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Wow I am suprised they say that this film launched Itano's career. From what I know he was working in the anime industry while he was driving a delivery truck in the beginning. If I am he was working on Mobile Suit Gundam while driving the trucks.

Marzan Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 Has anyone else here gotten the Royal Space Force 25th anniversary fanzine? It's really quite good and has a ton of info and analysis on the film and the origins of Gainax. It's done by Carl Gustav Horn and some of the crowd at ANN. I highly recommend it.

Primus1X Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Anime Limited has licensed it for the UK, it is due in April. Is £25.25 a reasonable price for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) i watched this with no subs in the late 80s. must buy it and actually watch it w subs. i also watched borgman last battle, baoh, fist of the north star, and gundam F91 with no subs and made up dialogue as i watched. couldn't figure out f91 and borgman so i skipped to the end action scenes. baoh didn't really need subs as he didn't talk much, fist of the north star i always wondered what they talked about when dying but pretty much figured out what's going on. Wings of Honneamise (i dont think i even knew the title)... that was a tough one i sat through it clueless and it made me feel uneasy... i need to get this.

Marzan Posted March 23, 2015 Author Share Posted March 23, 2015 Is that region free? No. That's a region A (The America's, Japan etc). Anime Limited has licensed it for the UK, it is due in April. Is £25.25 a reasonable price for it? Yes. It's a classic and Anime Limited makes some really nice releases with nice packaging. Moreover, it has the 20 page booklet translated from the Japanese release (which as far as I can tell the American release doesn't have).

Roy Focker Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Never saw it. Heard it was a classic. Found it on Hulu today. Decided to watch it. It is wonderfully animated but incredibly boring. 30 minutes to the end my sound died on me. After fixing it I decide to do something else.

electric indigo Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 PLUM is a pretty small manufacturer that has offered great niche IP kits like Murakamo or Power Dolls. Shown at Wonder Festival was a prototype of the unique plane from Honneamise: Some more pics here: http://stevethefish.net/life/wonfes2015/page2.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
