Cowboy Bebop competition

This summer sees the re-release of Cowboy Bebop in glorious digitally remastered Blu-ray and DVD! With all the excitement around the launch of Part 1 at the end of July, we thought it’d be fun to provide an outlet for the anticipation. Enter the Cowboy Bebop Vine competition (creative title eh?).

We’re running a wee competition for all you Cowboys out there - the rules are pretty simple and it involves the use of free technology; easy! If you take part you’re in with a chance to win a pair of Play Arts Spike and Vicious action figures! So, what is the competition?

The competition:
We want you, the fans, to recreate your favourite scene or favourite episode from the entire Cowboy Bebop series using the micro-video app Vine (you can download it for free on itunes and at Google Play for Android - hat tip to Gavin for pointing it out -Ed). Vine allows you to create 6 second videos, so you have 6 seconds to get your scene or episode across. You can do this any way you’d like - for example, you could use puppets, draw characters and stick them on straws, stop motion with toys, pets, your friends whatever works for you. Be creative and think different.

All approved clips will be embedded onto the competition page on All the Anime’s site and will be shared on Facebook and Twitter. So, what are the rules?

The rules:

  • The clip must refer to a scene or episode from the existing 26 episodes of the Cowboy Bebop tv series. No Cowboy Bebop movie references please!
  • Entries must be submitted via Vine - no scenes animated on computers or elsewhere and uploaded please. The link to the Vine video must be Tweeted or shared on our Facebook page (twitter.com/alltheanime and facebook.com/animelimited)
  • We will embed all approved clips onto our own website and share them over Twitter and Facebook
  • All entries must be above board and legal. For example, let’s not have real life recreations of the Mushroom Samba episode. You know what I’m talking about
  • Entries will be subject to moderation and are at the mercy of the All the Anime team
  • The judges’ decision is final and there will be no cash or alternative prizes available
  • We reserve the right to exclude any entry for any reason at all
  • Employees of Anime Limited and their dependents and employees and dependents of its commercial partners may not enter the competition

 

For inspiration, check out 5 Second Films on YouTube . You'd be amazed at what you can get across in 6 seconds!

You’ve got 2 weeks to submit your entry - so from today 03, June 2013 until midnight BST 16, June 2013. Winners will be announced the week following the last day for entries.

A special thanks to Square Enix for supplying the gorgeous Spike and Vicious figures!

Good luck and get submitting!

Meet the Anime Limited Team

Well, that's MCM London done for May and it was an utter blast! We had such a great time over the course of the weekend and met some incredible people and some old friends. We even made a whole bunch of new friends too - so we figured it was about time we properly introduced the team here at Anime Limited. These are the guys and gals that work hard to  make sure you get the anime you want to see, be it theatrical releases or home video. So without further ado, ladies and gentlemen, the Anime Limited team!

 

Andrew

anthony

Those of you who've been on the scene long enough will instantly recognise Andrew Partridge. He is El Presidente of Anime Limited and responsible for getting you all those titles and films you love so much. He is also a ridiculous ball of energy.

 

Tom

john

If you've been to the most recent MCM Expo, you may recognise Tom from our booth there. He is junior production manager and a wonderful animator. He designed and animated our title card. He's not as grumpy as he likes to portray himself.

 

Kat

cath

This is Kat. You will also recognise her from MCM Expo as she was working hard on our booth. Kat's a sickly talented graphic artist and also studied animation. She is responsible for all our pretty graphics on the booth and elsewhere. If you were lucky enough to snag one of the limited edition Cowboy Bebop prints, that's an example of her handiwork.

 

Kerry

karen

I'm the most recent to join the gang here at Anime Limited. I'm responsible for the marketing, PR and other such shenanigans. Bill Hicks once told all marketers to kill themselves, but I'm not so bad. Honest.

 

And there you have it. Team Anime Limited. I'm sure you'll be getting used to us as we'll be at a lot of the expos, cons, and festivals. See you guys around.

The Anime Limited Booth at MCM

Anime Limited's first jaunt to MCM Comic Con London is off to a great start with a brilliant schedule of events and the gorgeous designs for our booth all done and ready to go. This time around we won't have any of our own stock on sale at our booth, mostly due to the fact that our first run of stock will be Part 1 of Cowboy Bebop Collector's Edition out on Blu-ray in July, so we're a couple months off. However, we will be helping out our friends at Kaze and 101 Anime by selling their stock at our booth! Titles will include the latest parts of your favourite shows so don't miss your chance to catch up.

I can also confirm that we will be able to accept debit and credit cards on the booth! This, I'm sure, will be a welcome relief for a lot of you out there so now you really have no excuse for not going nuts, buying up all the stuff at the booth, right? So what can you get?

Kaze

Kaze's got some pretty sweet titles up for grabs including:

Newest works 

  • Bleach Complete Series 10  (£25)
  • Street Fighter 2: The Movie  (£15)
  • Penguin Drum Complete Series Collect  (£20)
  • Tiger & Bunny Part 2 Double Play  (£25)
  • Nura - Rise of the Yokai Clan Season  (£20)
  • Persona 4: The Animation Box 2  (£20)

 

Fan favourites

  • Code Geass (Season 1 and R2 on Blu-ray)  (£25 each)
  • Journey to Agartha (Collector's Edition and DVD)  (£20 and £10 respectively)
  • Berserk Movie 1 (Collector's Edition and DVD)  (£25)

 

101 Anime

101 Anime's bringing along many titles including:

  • Elfen Lied  (£25)

So mosey on down to Booth #1003 for a chat and to get your hands on some of the titles listed above.

See you all there.

Shinichiro Watanabe with Anime Limited at MCM

MCM London is just around the corner and we're very happy to be hosting the great Shinichiro Watanabe at the Anime Limited booth! As everything is kicking off later on this week, we thought you might find it helpful to have the final timings and places listed here. These are the final times and have changed from what you may have seen on the MCM Forum - so please take note.  Here you go!

Friday:

  • 4:30pm - 6:30pm at Anime Limited Booth #1003

 

Saturday:

  • 1:00pm - 2:15pm at Anime Limited Booth #1003

 

Sunday:

  • 1:00pm - 2:30pm at MyM stand

 

Please note: despite the fact that Mr. Watanabe will  be taking part in signings for three days, it is highly likely that each of these signing events will be very busy. With the times being so limited, please remember that Mr. Watanabe will be signing one item per person. We would like everyone to have a chance to get items signed hence keeping signings to a minimum. Please think of others and respect fans who are also queuing.

 

Thanks and see you all there!

009 RE:CYBORG & MULTI PLATFORM RELEASE DATE!

Many of you have been patiently waiting to find out exactly where 009 RE:CYBORG will be screened. As 009 is highly anticipated viewing, not least for it’s breathtaking visuals and 3D effects, there have been many, many enquiries about local listings. Well the wait is over, we’ve got a finalised list of where, when and how you can watch 009 RE:CYBORG as well as details on its multi-platform release!

What does multi platform mean?

You've likely seen some live action films primarily doing this but we believe that being able to see the film, legally and easily is important.  Of course we're big promoters of seeing a film on the big screen where it belongs but it's also pretty tricky on a first film project to get coverage that leaves everyone with a screen within easy reach.

This means we'll be making use of the nifty technology that www.distrify.com have created to allow people to enjoy the film in 2D streaming from the day it comes out on its limited theatrical release!  More on that shortly!

So how can I watch it?

1. Cinema screenings

The following cinemas will be showing 009 RE:CYBORG in 3D (some will have 2D screenings as well). The cinema listings have been split into Scotland and England in order to find your nearest screening easily. We’ve also included the links to the cinemas for more information.

Scotland

Edinburgh Filmhouse - June 7th - 10th in 2D and 3D (link)

We have another venue we're awaiting their booking before we confirm so far too!

England

- London - Hackney Picturehouse June 7th, 8th (link)
- London - Ritzy Picturehouse (Brixton) June 7th, 8th (link)
- London - Stratford East (Stratford) June 13th (link)
- Liverpool - FACT June 22 (link)

Don't see it somewhere you'd like to?  Let us know and if there's enough demand we'll do our best to add it to a cinema near you!

2. Digital

On day of launch - it'll be available for streaming via distrify - which you can embed anywhere and more importantly is you make 10% of the profits from anyone who pays to stream the film through your share of it!  We'll have that up on the hub page at www.alltheanime.com/cyborg on June 7th!

We'll also have the film up for order on iTunes rental (Download-to-Own will start from September 1st onwards) and FilmFlex into July too - so you'll be able to support the film over a range of different platforms.  Don't worry too - we'll be looking to schedule the film into more cinemas in 3D over the next month too!  If you want it somewhere specific - let us know and well do our best!

Check back soon for more information

More information to come shortly - keep an eye on our hub site -  www.alltheanime.com/cyborg for more information!  In the meantime - here's a snap of our theatrical poster for the film - like what you see?
