A Crunchy-Test Complete
Dec. 22nd, 2023 04:57 pmSteady complaints about now having to order anime from the Crunchyroll Store in the place of Right Stuf accumulated on message boards to the point of me very much contemplating trying to buy from some new alternative. The problem was that a great deal of the anime I buy nowadays is from Discotek, and their Blu-Rays aren’t available from a lot of places. So far as “big companies don’t care” goes, ordering from Amazon seems just about as dubious as ordering from a subsidiary of Sony. I do know Discotek titles are now being listed at “Robert’s Anime Corner Store,” a site with a distinct “Web 1.0” vibe to it, but there I fear I might have had to confront the thought that it’s one thing to disdain “a big company” and another to be uncertain (if also perhaps just altogether wrong through having noticed the wrong comments) about the personalities at small companies. There was also that extra bit of uncertainty as to whether an order from this store actually meant “just a bit less money going to a big company.”
