Toon Zone Talkback - Bandai Entertainment Licenses "Lucky Star" OAV

[!!xooo]

This is the talkback thread for Bandai Entertainment Licenses "Lucky Star" OAV.

Well, this was surprising, considering Lucky Star vol. 6 LE got cancelled.

(There, I got it right this time. )

Nice one. I'm guessing this will get its own release, but unlike the Final Plus release for Gundam Seed Destiny there's actually a reason to buy this since it basically has two episodes worth of completely new content.

There's apparently a ridiculous nuraber of references on top of the typical Lucky Star comedy. Heh.

 

[I wanna know]

I thinks they cancelled LE #6 so they could use some money to buy the OVA.

 

[hippyrocker]

This is great news, since I enjoyed the OVA.

 

[ComeClarity]

What's this OVA/OAV about?

 

[Kaytee <3]

Basically a super long episode divided into several parts. One has the girls playing the fake MMO that we see Konata doing from time to time, another focuses on a volleyball match, you get the idea. The anime about nothing continues on. The whole thing apparently enRAB with a live action version of Lucky Channel.

 

[pai]

So I'm guessing on the live-action part, we'll see real versions of the characters from the series?

 

[υεlυεt • ωσмαη]

Thankfully. Maybe a Blu-ray for this as well?

 

[Kevincible]

Yeah. It has Hiromi Konno (Akira's VA) and Minoru Shiraishi (as himself).



Could be, though I wouldn't expect it. HD is still really uncommon for anime.

 

[§§Mad Banke®§§]

I know, I wasn't expecting it, I was one step away from importing the Japanese DVD, but thankfully Kadokawa and Bandai came and saved the day, so I can get it at a cheaper price.

I enjoyed the OVA too, and surprisingly my wide knowledge of anime came into play, during a certain scene in the OVA, but I liked and enjoyed it with a cheesy grin on my face. (you'd be surprised, at how many anime I know about, and how much I know about anime, and anything related to it)



I hope so too, but sadly HD is still an unknown territory to anime

 

[Brainless Harry Reid]

Tsubasa, Gundam 00, Akira and the DBZ movies would like to have a word with you.

 

[Softball Luva!]

That's not even close to the majority, and Tsubasa and 00 don't have Blu-Ray confirmed for the U.S. yet (nor does DBZ, but that's inevitable). We have a ways to go. It wasn't very long ago when just about nothing was on Blu-Ray outside of Bandai Visual USA's terrible "Japanese authentic" releases. Lucky Star is a more niche offering and I can't see BEI doing it sooner rather than later, considering what else they have in the library and the fact that they got burned on the limited edition DVD release.

 

[busta5000_y]

I will look foward to watching this when it comes out.

 

[kuletboi]

Cheeeeerrrrry, baka inu. Cheeeeerrrryyyy, maguroooo...

Yeah you could tell I like this OAV. Looking forward to getting it one day.

 

[bbyckz.]

I believe that most of the movies, along with The History of Trunks and Bardock, the Father of Goku specials, have been released on Blu-Ray.

 

[spazzdaily]

Ah, right. I was thinking along the lines of Dragonball Kai.
