Wow. I honestly never thought I'd see the day. And Patrick Seitz is directing the dub! This is amazing, truly amazing.

Dub cast for anohana looks great, but when this box comes out, it may serve as a nice object lesson of Aniplex USA's price gouging, since we'll be able to compare it directly to the NIS America longbox from 2012, which had an MSRP of $70 for the collector's edition, and streeted for much less than that (mine from Right Stuf was $52). Of course, Aniplex USA charging an arm and a leg shouldn't be news to anyone, but it'll be nice to be able to quantify it (kind of like when they clawed the Baccano! license back from Funimation and put out a Blu-Ray box).

Whaaaat? For 2-3 years I had been wishing for Aniplex USA to dub Anohana, and they are going to do it. AWESOME. This is not a must, but it would be nice if they also dub the movie. If AoA does a nice chipboard box, I am ready to pay $150 for the series. And I would pay $200 for a set that also includes the movie and a thick booklet.
Thank you for this.

Yeeeeeesss!! Regardless of the dub, I'm just excited that this means they will be re-releasing the TV series which has been impossible to purchase since a few months after it came out. I've even been checking Ebay for about a year with no luck.

This renewed my hope for a Blast of Tempest re-release on BD, dub or no dub. The DVD only release is the reason I still haven't bought it yet.

This is a surprise, usually sub-only releases don't get a dub later on, must of been a big seller.

I am also a big fan of the show, but sadly I don't think it is popular enough for AoA to go back and release it on BD, much less dub it. I would upgrade my DVD's only if it is released on BD and dubbed. |

Well, that's why I said it may serve as a comparison. Let's see what the price is, but also what you get with each. The NISA edition had a nice oversize hardcover artbook and a sturdy box; Aniplex's will have a dub. At the same price, I'd call that a push. But if Aniplex's comes in at like $100, no way… and I don't care how nice the damn postcards are. |

Multiple people on Twitter have said that the Anohana set was also announced to be $120.

First Funi licenses Hyouka AND dubs it and a series I have lost any hope for years ago is getting dubbed!! I don't care what AoA prices this release as any amount is worth it to me to have an English dub and not have to listen to it dubbed in Japanese! This past year AoA has made me so happen with pretty much every single announcement they made!
Magi blurays FINALLY! I can't wait to finally be able to watch this series when they release the blurays! I don't stream anime and didn't want to buy an HD show on DVD as that's all AoA offered and have been hoping for years for this announcement. Thank you AoA! <3 |

To me the English dub alone is worth the extra $30. But I suspect the MSRP will be $130-150. |

I think its a smart move by AoA as Anohana has a chance to be an evergreen title for them, much like Durarara! and Madoka have become. There's plenty of people who missed picking up the title the first time around. The dub will give people an extra incentive to pick it up and also will have larger appeal on some streaming services like Amazon Strike. However, the show is going on to being 6 years old now and I suspect they will approach it like the current Durarara!! and Madoka releases . A paper sleeve case and maybe some postcards which will then have a street price anywhere from $120-150. If they throw in the movie then it could go higher, but I would guess that they would wait on releasing the movie separately based on the success of the show. If they don't get too ridiculous in price ($200+) I can see myself buying this. Last edited by One-Eye on Sat Apr 15, 2017 4:47 pm; edited 1 time in total |

OH HECK YES!!! I've been waiting for a dub of this show ever since I finished it, and now my wish is coming true!!!
Which reminds me, I really need to finish watching Yuuki Yuuna's English dub. |
