Quote from: Daikun on May 21, 2024, 08:22:44 PMExcept hadn't DeMarco claimed (which I frustratingly can't find since he deleted his Twitter instead of leaving it dormant) that he tried to get Sailor Moon Crystal to no avail, even though Viz had it, meaning there is established difficulty more recent than a decade ago? And why would 200 episodes of a popular show from Viz be cheaper or easier to acquire than 13 episodes of a now mostly niche show from Sentai? Even if it was just the first season of SM, that's still 46. And I think even only a few months in, CN would have enough data to know if Rewind was worth it or not.Quote from: Dr. Insomniac on May 21, 2024, 04:21:56 PMBut if that were the case, why not get something lower profile? Because last I checked, the Sailor Moon owners were very picky about the handling of their show, hence that dry spell a while ago when the series wasn't legally available in the US.
...and Viz released the series uncut and in full, and that was a decade ago, so it's not a problem anymore.QuoteBesides, doesn't CN have the rights to Big O thanks to co-producing it?
They have season 2. If they wanted season 1, they'll have to pony up some cash to Sentai.
