Series missing discs

Posted by Belgand on May 10, 2008 at 9:11am in AnimeZone

Ok, does anyone know what's up with Netflix not having discs in what feels like a ton of series (11 on my queue alone)? They're clearly available and while Netflix definitely has problems with other films that are widely available (and apparently were available at Netflix in the past) they seem to really have problems with anime.

I mean, not just series either, but Vampire Hunter D and Perfect Blue are both MIA as well (though, at least Perfect Blue is available for instant watching if you can tolerate the dub).

What's next, no more Ninja Scroll? No more Akira? *GASP* No more Ghost in the Shell!?!? How will we relive the early 90s?; ▶ Reply to This

I was thinking sunday, just want to get a feel on how many people we can find. If we can't collectively get a hundred people I think it might be better to wait. So if we all find two people, then well 90 is still enough. I was thinking we would just send it once and see the response. If no response then we will just have continue collecting allies and keeping an updated lists of series that are missing. I'm not sure how much our reviewers rank count, but you never know, maybe it will make them take more notice. Good job my soulful southern brother.; ▶ Reply to This
