One thing I find interesting about the BanG Dream! concert movies is that they're damn nearly the only idol concerts to ever get a release in the US (or the West more generally? someone feel free to correct me). Prior to the first FILM LIVE movie, the last concert I remember getting a Blu-Ray release here was the Hatsune Miku Mikunopolis concert, and that was nearly a decade ago.
There have also been one-time theatrical screenings of the actual live concerts of the various units from the Love Live! and BanG Dream! franchises (I've seen a few of each), but those never got a home release. I keep hoping that one of these days Funimation or Sentai will take a chance on the actual live concerts. I mean, is it really the case that Western fans of BanG Dream! would buy the FILM LIVE animated movies on BD, but wouldn't actually watch a live Roselia or Poppin' Party concert? The multimedia nature of these franchises is a big part of their appeal in Japan, after all. |
