NEWS: AnimEigo Plans Kickstarter for Metal Skin Panic MADOX-01 Blu-ray

The article somewhat misstates what the actual animation stretch goal is when summarizing it.

From the draft campaign page: "It turns out there's a scene with an animation mistake that Director Aramaki would like to fix. If we hit this stretch goal, we'll hire him to do so, and make any other tweaks he deems necessary. These changes will be incorporated into the restored version, and we'll create a special feature that A/B compares the changes."

When it's the actual director that wants to make what seems like minor fixes (if even more than just one specific one), and both versions will still exist, that sounds like a great idea to me.

I mean, as long as both versions are viewable on this release. Otherwise we’ll have another Macross DYRL incident. They toned down the violence in the initial bluray release which meant that the only way to watch the original version was on DVD. Luckily they restored the violence in a later release.

I got this on VHS I think. Think I will pass on this though. Didn't really think much of it back then. The story just didn't hook me. Though it is nice that they are doing it for those that do. Now I wish someone would do Outlanders.
