Watched the trailer and the film looks really interesting. It's also nice to see NISA license a film and see how they're releasing one. Hopefully they'll follow up with the Anohana and Hanasaku Iroha films as well.

A Movie?? In a premium Edition as well. NIS could you be anymore awesome. Now My hopes of getting the AnoHana movie are alive and well : D

Also beautiful looking set. I'll be picking this up for sure

It's the first movie release for NISA. I hope it will do well for them.

this was literally my first thought upon seeing this

as for this film in question though, I'll need to look into before I decide if I want to purchase it or not

I'll probably pass on this release (as nice as the presentation is). I like the mechanical and character designs, but I was underwhelmed by the plot and air combat sequences when I saw the film two or three months ago. ;_; At one point early last year, it was on my possible-import list; I'm glad that I didn't.

I like NISA as a company, so I hope that this does pretty well for 'em.

That movie would definitely look gorgeous in a NISA artbox. But before that, they need to please the hard WORKING fans!

I'm thinking the same thing. I love the character designs (it's almost worth it for the boxart alone). But I haven't seen the movie, and I'm not sure if I'll find the story at all interesting.

They are surely going to announce Season 2 licensed sometime this year aren't they?

It was one of their best sellers, becoming their first premium Edition to sell out i think.

I would love to hear about this at next month's Sakura Con as well as a release date finally for 'Daily Lives of Highschool Boys'.

Oh and i would die happy if they announced they were going to license Kaiji. One day this has to happen!!!
