Kraken Releasing Licenses Original GARO Series
 

No release specifics yet, but the 2005 GARO series is coming to America with plans for the other instalments to follow!

Full news story

:eek:

Wow this surprises me. I guess the anime series help boost some interest with the series. Garo is obscure outside the Western Otaku fandom and Toku is very niche expect for Power Rangers and Godzilla.

Surprised Funimation isn't doing it given that they already have the anime.

Uh fuck yeah.

So maybe the assholes I work with will watch it now.

OH MY GOD!!!!! YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope they give us the newly remastered versions on BD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh shiiiiiiiit!

Now if we can get more Ultraman and Kamen Rider stuff in the US.

We have a lot of Ultraman, it's just streaming only.

Proper Ultraman home video releases would be nice. Cruchyroll is now going to put their shows on DVD and Blu-Ray. So there is always a chance.

I hope so. I'd buy the fuck out of Ultraman Max on blu-ray.

:thumbdown

Expound?

I'm not there

You've convinced me! Fuck this thing!

Why is it finally getting licensed a bad thing?

I think, because, they aren't in the US?

im not in us but if i had the money i would import this straight away.

Ins't Manga Entertainment still relevant over in the UK? Maybe with enough fan demand, they could import it over in the UK along with the Shout! releases of Super Sentai.

Yeah, they're one of the biggest anime distributors we have. Not sure how extensive their live-action catalogue is though - I know it exists but the only things they really push are anime adaptations.
