Local DVD Release: Rurouni Kenshin Live Action Film

"Are you still not fed up with the film that you still had to to buy the DVD?"

This is what a friend told me (her knowing I watched the movie several times last December) after I bought a DVD of "Rurouni Kenshin" during its local release 2 weeks ago at Odyssey in Gateway Mall, Cubao.

A question to which I replied, "We have to support this kind of releases by purchasing so that distributors are well-aware that there is a following; hence, encouraging them to do more releases of this kind in the future."

That and the DVD has an additional track which is the film's "making". *___*

I haven't opened the DVD yet though even after a staycation this Holy Week. XD

The movie and its blockbuster success last December was most probably the reason why there are now upcoming Japanese animation films soon to be shown here in Manila (and in other PH cities?). Apparently, the movies will be exclusively shown at SM Cinemas just like how it was done with "Rurouni Kenshin". So far, SM Cinemas announced that it will show "Naruto: Road to Ninja", "HunterXHunter" movie and "One Piece Film Z" this April and in May.

The local otaku and J-Pop community was stirred and ver much exhilarated with these news of being able to watch our favorite anime locally on the big screen.



Getting a copy of the DVD. Amuse PH did some raffle.
