    In case it's unclear, that stuff bring cut on the one release was only done because it was packaged with a video game and by Japanese law it had to match the game rating. There was never a reason beyond that for DYRL to be censored for any content beyond that the game was marketed for a younger age group. By this logic all releases with just the movie are basically always going to have everything.

    Couldn't tell ya anything. I'm just reporting what I've looked up and others say about that. I'm not an audio expert.
  3. Master Dex
    Yeah, so audiophiles will like the Linear PCM option overall, but if you have an actual 5.1 surround system set up, the DTS will be more immersive despite the compression used. I have a 4K TV with a soundbar. It's moot so I used PCM.

    So from what I've been told, both versions of the movie on the disc are upscaled and enhanced, the difference is the content, the 1984 doesn't have the Angel Paints concert outro, which is like 2 minutes worth of visuals at best, and the 2016 does. The 2016 cut also has the DTS audio option of course which if you have the right audio set up will be ideal. Most people's average TV set up likely won't notice a big difference either way I think. And just so it's fully out there, the options are the same on each disc, with the UHD disc having everything in the full 4K whereas the Blu-ray disc is just HD.

    Well I have yet to watch Frontier on stream actually, I'm still finishing a 7 rewatch. If I remember I'll watch for that.

    Like the name or specific lyrics? The name has been official since the song was released on CD and streaming. You can see that almost anywhere because it's almost always displayed in English (as the lyric is sung in English). If you are questioning other lyrics, we might need more specificity.

    Similar, I just got my notification from them this morning and they say it's coming today (in CA here). Granted, I picked FedEx shipping it seems so that might be why.
  8. Master Dex
    Technically it releases in two days.. well maybe tomorrow in Japan. The international shipping going out is to meet that release time frame likely. My CDJapan order hasn't given shipping confirmation but my order status is "In Shipping Process" so stuff is happening.
  9. Master Dex
    Yeah honestly you're probably better off.
  10. Master Dex
    I had a feeling that was the case, so you're really just watching them in another country then. Valid if that works for you, but it's not the way to natively do it in the US.
  11. Master Dex
    That... Shouldn't be true. It's been shown before that only Disney+ tells you to unlock Hulu shows by paying for Hulu, bundle or not. I'm not sure how that can work unless one forgot they had a subscription to both.
  12. Master Dex
    I dunno what I'm doing differently, but I've been watching on Hulu with my Roku TV and have had zero issues with subs and I'm almost 20 episodes into a Macross 7 rewatch. Maybe the others mentioned might still be an issue, I haven't checked yet. It does port it through the TV's CC but Hulu has always done that so that's not new to me as I have watched anime there before. I also customized my TV's CC settings so the lettering is larger and has no black box at all with a proper drop shadow so it tends to look a lot nicer on my end. I don't know if every TV these days can do that but if so, consider it, I think it helps a lot for presentation. I can't offer much for timing as that's usually out of the user's control but at least on 7 I haven't seen any problems yet.
  13. Master Dex
    It's more just several apps port subtitles through the CC on smart TVs and Hulu and Disney are both examples of that. Functionally it looks exactly like CC, which on my TV settings I can edit to look different so I have large white drop shadow text CC with no background. That helps a lot.

    It is worth reporting we do have it, but episode 2 has been slightly recut. No one is entirely sure who did it, but it seems they decided to remove the admittedly very uncomfortable Mylene scene. You all know the one if you've seen it before. While some have grown worried it's a marker of censorship, I think that is an improvement in all honesty... and so far nothing else has appeared to be edited, including many of the more risque stuff in Frontier et al. Whether that has any bearing on it not being in Hong Kong I can't say.
  15. Master Dex
    Yeah I'm aware but they still brand content with it. All anime in the US that Disney licenses has a clear Hulu label on it and you can watch it with just a Hulu subscription if that's all you have. This hasn't changed yet.

    It's from Australia. I saw this earlier in a fan group and was immediately suspicious of the date formats plus it had no link to source, just an image. Others looked up the same information for the US and Macross items weren't on that. I highly doubt they'd be on Disney+ directly anyway instead of Hulu. This image is different from the one I saw.. it's been edited but they didn't change the date formats to match, they are all different styles (though I admit 1/1 can be read either way so maybe it is just the Australian one I was told about from a different page) This is where we are now, people willing to fake this stuff or say it's US with no proof just to stir the pot.

    This is how I know you never looked at the VF-1 from all angles. The backpack at the top has thrusters in it. The VF-1 relies on that and a mix of foot movement. This is more easily solved than some VF's like the 30/31 series.

    Iron had been called star poison as it takes too much energy to fuse that it gets less out, which causes the balance of the star to collapse. Usually it's the core of stars that get into heavier elements in the red giant stage and when it reaches that you're basically at end of life and things are gonna either peter out or get really exciting really fast.
  19. Master Dex
    I don't think that's fanon, it does use atmospheric air for propulsion, in atmosphere anyway. In space it doesn't do this of course and switches to what I'd call uneconomic mode and uses full fusion energy for propulsion instead of just to heat the free remass of the air.

    Unclear but we know some fleets started launching from Eden as well as seen from the map in Frontier's opening. Though that all likely happened in the 30s and 40s too. There's a point where Earth might have slowed down it's own emigrant move because the expansion machine was self sustaining in a way.

    I got charged and received shipping notification from Crunchyroll so they're working their way through the list.

    Easy sell for me, hope people share coupon codes like with Plus. I'll get it anyway though. I decided to look at Honey, and I tried CRAFF15 and for about 15% off so use it while it works.

    I dunno who said the Delta movies didn't have subs but all Delta releases do have English subs. I have a copy of Zettai Live BD and can confirm that much. As for Frontier, the series never got English subs in a BD release to my knowledge (maybe the most recent, but I don't know). That being said, the subs exist now because I've seen them on the Disney+ streams where they are available in certain countries (such as Canada).

    Oi, no smoking on the bridge!

    It's listed as region free where I bought it. Besides Japan and US are on the same BD region code (I don't know about every country though).
