Info DGM DVD Covers & Info

Re: dgm dvd info

Canada reminds me strongly of Kuwait in this sense. They even stopped someone coming in with a Princess Mononoke DVD!

By the way, Digital Eon, where are the pictures usually released?

I predict the 7th DVD will have Kanda. It's inevitable!! I'm curious to see if we'll get another Noah cover soon. ^_^

The irony is that it just arrived today, almost a month after it shipped. XD

I get the pictures I post from CDJapan/Neowing, the online store that I order the DVDs from. I'm not sure where rhapsody gets hers from, so maybe there...? (The official site seems to be very slow with that sort of thing!)

Re: dgm dvd info

I found them on 2ch ^^

anyway, DGM 2nd Stage LE DVD 04 is ranked #7 for the week of June 4th-10th.

Re: dgm dvd info

Covers for the 2nd Stage 6 DVD are out.

(Limited Edition)

(Regular Edition)

Ehhh... Not super interesting, but maybe that's just because I'm not a fan of Kanda.

Also, news on the 2nd Stage 8th DVD:
It'll be released on October 1 and contain episodes 80 to 83. The firstpress editions will contain a setting guide, three-fold sleeve case, smokey jacket, and apparently "more" (but since there's only one version, no extra CD or DVD, I guess).

Re: dgm dvd info

Hmmm.....it could be better, but its quite a good picture for a Kanda fan. XD

It's pretty obvious the twins are going to be on the cover of the 8th DVD. >_>

[rhapsody blue]

Sweets! There is gong to be a D.Gray-man Complete Best album. Thanks for the info, Dofla!

The cover for the 7th DVD has been posted and all I can say is that the Kanda fangirls are going to be happy...

Spoiler

 

[Digital_Eon]

Oh god, not again. *headdesks* Looks like Teeba wins!

 

[Teeba]

LOL WUT. How did that happen? XD

Can we say cop-out? I was looking forward to seeing Skinn on a cover!

Cassandra says next cover should be either Krory or Devit and Jasdero. ^_^

 

[rhapsody blue]

I have a feeling it would be Krory; this season's DVD covers seem to focus a lot on the exorcists.

 

[Digital_Eon]

The cover for 2nd Stage 8!

Spoiler

What a surprise?

Also, more info on DVDs:

2nd Stage 9: Release date is November 5, 2008. Contains episodes 84 to 87 and apparently, a bonus "D.Gray-Omake" feature (the ones already in the series, I guess). Firstpress editions contain a three-fold sleeve case, smoke jacket packaging, and a special booklet.

2nd Stage 10: Release date is December 3, 2008. Contains episodes 88 to 92 and the same omake thing. Firstpress goodies are the same as 2nd Stage 9.

 

[rhapsody blue]

They finally have the Noahs on the cover. Nice...

LJ user crown_clown0 has posted a DDL for the X-mas Drama CD while styroglue has translated the first track. ^^

Information about DGM DVD sales has been posted on 2ch. I am guessing that 初動 is the first week; 2初動 is the second week while 発売日 is the date of the release.

一期の最初は一万もあった事にびっくりｗ

Here is how the latest DGM DVD sale compared to other anime (SJ?) series:

16,740 *16,740 **1 銀魂 シーズン其ノ参 01(完全生産限定版)
*5,829 **5,829 **1 To LOVEる-とらぶる- ドキ×2エディション Vol.2

*4,141 **4,141 **1 家庭教師ヒットマンREBORN！ 日常編【後編】
*3,867 **3,867 **1 D.Gray-man 2nd stage 06〈完全生産限定版〉

 

[Digital_Eon]

Ouch, those are some low sales. They've really plummeted... but at least they're somewhat steady now?

 

[rhapsody blue]

^It seems that way.

Since the anime is most likely based on the DVD sales, I guess the sales did not reach expectation (maybe they expected it to be around the same as Reborn?).

According to ANN,

- DGM 2nd Stage DVD 06 (LE) was #7 for the week of Aug. 6th to 12th.
- DGM 2nd Stage DVD 05 (LE) was #2 for the week of July 3rd to 9th.
- DGM 2nd Stage DVD 04 (LE) was #7 during the week of June 4th to 10th.
- DGM 2nd Stage DVD 03 (LE) was #8 during hte week of May 14th to 20th.

Since the DVDs seems to be doing pretty well, I guess the anime's being over is not based entirely on how well the sales are. I recalled reading on 2ch that DGM has trouble with finding sponsors so maybe that's the problem?

DGM 2nd Stage DVD 07 (LE) is #4 for the week of Sept. 3rd to 9th according to ANN. Though I have to admit, I thought it would rank a little higher with that cover.

 

[Digital_Eon]

Information on 2nd Stage 11:

-There will be a regular edition and a limited edition.

-Release date is January 7, 2009.

...No other information! However, the Limited Edition apparently comes with a CD... I guess that's a drama CD?

...No other information! However, the Limited Edition apparently comes with a CD... I guess that's a drama CD?

CD Japan states that it will be an unreleased soundtrack, but I think I found some more info about the CD on 2ch.

そういやDVD11巻の特典に
「サントラ未収録音源が満載のオリジナルCD」て
書いてあったけど何のBGMが入るのかな
丁度旋律が収録される巻なだけに気になってる

ごめん、子守唄はサントラ3に収録らしいな

＞ちょうど今サントラ3のリリースの準備をしています。
＞小林沙苗さんの歌う挿入歌をはじめ、1時間を越える
＞特大ボリュームな収録数になる予定ですから、
＞楽しみに待っててくださいね!

According to 2chers, they believe that it will include the 14th melody (piano version and maybe the vocal version). They also hope that Road, Maria, and Jesdevi's songs will also be included in the CD.

 

[Digital_Eon]

Ahhh, so basically the unreleased songs from the OST everyone wanted! Guess they'll have to buy the DVD to get-

*rushes to preorder*

Information wasn't up at the time I posted~
