Code Geass : A News and Fan Community

Doesn't look like this has been posted yet.

Code Geass will be streamed both subbed and dubbed on YouTube. Currently, the first 5 episodes are up. They can be found at the BandaiEntertainment channel.


EDIT: Uh, apparently you can only watch if you're in the U.S. .>_>;;

I'm reading about the North American Geass DVDs on AOD and it sounds like many discs have playback problems. You can read here for more info. Mine hasn't shipped yet but hopefully when it does it'll be from a good batch. =.x

And since I'm posting here anyway, a lil update on the Geass project thingy. For all of you who sent me money, could you please PM me with your name (or nickname, though real name is probably best) and country so I can write it down when I send everything? Also, I received a letter for Fukuyama yesterday from someone in Johnson City, TN. Um, please tell me who you are on LJ? .^^; (And thanks for the crane!)

With the DVD glitches, it might mean a delay in sending the stuff so you guys just might have more time to send in your letters and stuff. .^^


EDIT: Thanks to cayterror, we have a response from Bandai:

After reading about the issue in the forums we have checked several copies from the batch which played fine. It should not be a widespread issue. However, most of the product have been shipped so we won't exactly know until the release date. If you are having doubts I would recommend waiting a couple days after the release date. We'll send out a press release if we find any major problems.

Regards,

support@bandai-ent.com

So I guess either it's just a bad batch or Bandai is playing ignorant. We'll find out soon enough.

It's up, it's up! Finally~ On Amazon USA that is. It seems it was up on the Canadian site first, anyway~~ Cheaper than RightStuf! (Free shipping!)

Volume 1 ($16.99)
Volume 2 ($16.99)
Part 1 ($27.99)
Part 1 LE ($51.99)


Okay, so I have a project.... to send Code Geass Part 1 to Fukuyama Jun (voice of Lelouch). I do this once in a while, sending R1 DVDs (with region-free copies) to seiyuu so they can hear their roles in English. (Yeah, most dubs are meh but I think someone in the business has a different way of appreciating voice work.)

Anyway, basically, help pitch in to pay for the DVDs and shipping, and send along any letters people may have for Fukuyama. You can either help pay, only send a letter, or do both!

Cost for the DVD + Priority Mail shipping to Japan will be about $55. Any amounts are welcome! I can accept pretty much any form of payment... PayPal, Google Checkout, money orders, cash, whatever. (There are fees for credit/debit contributions, however.) As for letters, you would send them to me and I'll stick it in with the DVD. It can be written in English or Japanese, or any other language for that matter. It's the thought that counts and I'm sure he'll appreciate knowing that he hands fans all over the world. Um, hand-written letters (they're more personal than typed ones), please, and that's pretty much it. =.3 Oh, and I won't read your letter btw. I'll only open if it I need to, like if you have it in a separate envelope, otherwise I'll just stick it in the package directly.

I've done this before with Hatano Wataru (sent him Yumeria, which was his first main role) and he actually wrote about the present on his blog. Maybe if we're lucky we can get a little blurb on the Baobab blog? X.D

Anyone who's interested, please contact me either via LJ PM or email. Thanks!


PS Letters for Sugiyama Noriaki (Rivalz) may be accepted too since he also works for Baobab.

[ EDIT: Forgot that Koshimizu Ami (Kallen) and Mizushima Takahiro (Rollo) work for Baobab as well so I'll take letters for them as well! ]
