Don't hold your breath for a re-release of #SonicTheMovie OVA - SEGA is reportedly missing key music & voice actor royalty paperwork preventing the English language dub from ever being released again. #SonicNews #SonicTheHedgehog

How did I never realize this? I know the ADV cover art for Sailor Moon was notoriously shitty but I didn't realize they straight-up traced over Pioneer's VHS cover for the Sailor Moon S movie.

A very belated update to info on the Sgt. Frog ADV dub: Picture disclosing more info about this thing from the January 2007 issue of Anime Insider! So far I've seen no documentation of this thing and I have just had this issue sitting around on a shelf without ever actually showing off this article.

The info listed is lackluster but a neat find regardless!

Tales of Physical Media!
"Area 88" is a pretty damn good fighter pilot anime, about mercenaries on a base, attempting to accumulate enough money to buy out their contracts, if they live that long. We follow the cold, distant Shin Kazama as he flees his past (like so many at this place) and kills more and more people to come one step closer to reclaiming it, and to save the soul he is losing along the way...
"Area 88" is a fairly old school anime, the manga began in 1979 and got an OVA in 1985, and an anime in 2004, and it's the latter I wish to talk about. Sure, the OVA is even older, and actually pretty good, but I would like to talk about the latter because of its soundtrack. See, it's all done to trance music and dance tunes, which is an odd choice, but kind of works? It's all stuff by Tiesto and 90s and 2000s DJs, so it is like listening to the "Kevin and Perry Go Large" soundtrack whilst playing "Top Gun" and "The Blue Max" on fast forward. Naturally, this all being licensed music, it's a bastard to get more than one printing of the discs, they were all later done with new original music when ADV films released it. I have my copy, and truth be told it's been a while, but this shit is not going to get a re-release at the best of times (it's a somewhat niche military anime based on a somewhat obscure, niche manga), so with a soundtrack this plagued by the parasites in the music industry? Keep your physical media, folks.

Wendy as Mio from Ghost Stories
Seriously, Britney Karbowski voices both characters and it sends me to hear her lean into her Wendy voice with the most demented kind of snark.
Like AU where Wendy tries to resurrect a dead Carla but they come back wrong.

In the early to mid-2000s I was a forum moderator for an anime website that was pretty under the radar but still notable enough that the person who ran the forum was given a handful of Screener/Press DVDs from ADV Films, and as a gift to me said person decided to give me two. One of them was for the first episode of Full Metal Panic, but unfortunately the disc rotted and is now unplayable, while the other was for Madlax. The Madlax disc thankfully still works, though there’s not really much that’s too notable outside of the “PROMOTIONAL USE ONLY” watermark that’s on display the entire time above the episode.

ADV Films/Chaos Comics Lady Death 2004 Movie Review Finale Part Four
So Its Over. And Its All An Origin Movie.Well that’s fine. Would be nice if they did another Lady Death movie in the years ahead, and set up whatever there is past her and Evil Ernie in a Chaosverse.
