  Anyone have this collection?Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Post Search for Posts by kennyk Report Post to a Moderator        IP Address Go to the top of this page

I just thought I'd let fans know of a great set of DVD's. It's the Studio Ghibli Movie Collection. It has English and Japanese dubbing, and is region free. It contains these 7 movies:

Laputa "Castle In The Sky"
Grave of Fireflies
My Neighbor Totoro
KiKi's Delivery Service Kiki
Porco-Rosso
Princess Mononoke
Spirited Away


www.cookiejarvideo.com/catalog/product_i...products_id=616
Or you can find it even cheaper on eBay:

Just look for a tan box that says Studio Ghibli Movie Collection, or a white box with Totoro drawn on it.

Sorry if people already know of this.

How come??? This is one major bootleg!!!! Please support Ghibli and buy the original DVD's! What's the reason for buying DVD's from somebody who illegally copies Ghibli DVD and makes money with that? If you don’t have the money, please save it and buy the films one at a time. If you really don’t have the money, you’d even better download them instead of buying bootlegs, this way the bootleggers don’t earn money with it. Anyway, please buy the original DVD’s!!! It’s really worth it and this way Studio Ghibli gets the money they have earned with their beautiful works which they can use for their future projects.

This is not a bootleg. It's straight from Ghibli. And for the fact, I have the money and I did purchase each one of those films individually from Studio Ghibli. >_<

Wushu is correct, the DVD set that kennyk pointed out is a bootleg.

Lets get this settled once and for all, as far as I am aware of the only official Ghibli DVD boxset is the limited edition R3 one released in mid-2004. It's very expensive and includes no English dubs.

You can buy it here -
http://global.yesasia.com/en/PrdDept.asp...-c/version-all/

See larger pictures of it here -
http://www.dvdtimes.co.uk/content.php?contentid=12113

Everything else is a bootleg.

Hi Shiawase!

Concerning the DVD collection posted above I can asure you 100% that it is a bootleg!!! Even if you don't know which Ghibli DVD's excist over the entire world, the fact that 7 of the Ghibli movies are put on only 4 DVD's shows that is a bootleg. If you don't think I'm telling the truth, please convince me with solid evidence! I must tell you though, this is impossible as it simply is a bootleg. There's only one official Ghibli Collection and that's the R3HK which is for sale over here: http://global.yesasia.com/en/PrdDept.asp...-c/version-all/

Just like E_Hakki lets us know in the post above (thanks for the backing me up)! ^_^

Also, the collection you claim to be original (but is a bootleg) does not come straight from Ghibli. The only DVD's which come straight from Ghibli are the original Japanese Region 2 DVD's and one R2JP Ghibli DVD only is already more expensive than this complete bootleg collection. Luckilly, for those who are not willing to pay so much money, there are also other LEGIT Ghibli DVD's from HK, Korea, the US, etc, which are cheaper.

Shiawase, please try to understand that I'm not trying to offend you or anybody!!! I'm just trying to stimulate to buy the original stuff, because a lot of bootlegs are being sold.

PLEASE DO NOT BUY BOOTLEGS!!! SUPPORT GHIBLI AND BUY THE ORIGINAL DVD'S!!!

Again please do not think I'm trying to offend you or was saying you don't have the money. I applaude you for having purchased each one of those films individually.

I didn't do my research obviously. Thanks for informing me. I hadn't realised there's only one official boxset. No offense taken, no worries! Anyone know of any stores (not websites!!) where I could purchase Lupin III: Castle of Cagliostro and The Ghibli's Ep 1 + 2? That's all I need for my collection.

Ghiblies episode 2 is included with the Disney release of 'The Cat Returns'. I don't think the first episode is available on any Ghibli dvd...so I guess its ok to download a fansubbed version.

As for Castle of Cagliostro, I'm not sure what American stores have it on sale. It isn't as widely available as Ghibli releases since it wasn't released by Disney.

Note that there have recently been two seperate releases, Manga Entertainment in 2000 and Optimum Asia in 2005. I don't know much about the Optimum release apart from the fact that it has some nice extras, but imho Manga Entertainment did a fantastic job with the dubbing, although its a shame the dvd has no bonus material.

  oh really...Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Post Search for Posts by shiawase Report Post to a Moderator        IP Address Go to the top of this page

I have the Disney version of "The Cat Returns" and it certainly does not have "Ghibli's Ep 2" on it. You sure it's Cat Returns that has it? I know a blockbuster in town here used to have Lupin III: Castle of Cagliostro for rent but then they took it off shelves and sold it before I could watch it!! So i dunno... there're anime shops in town I'm sure i could order it from. Thanks for the help!

Glad to be of service.

P.S - Sorry, I should have put R3 before "the Disney release of The Cat Returns". Disney also distribute Ghibli dvds across the world, even in Japan (although under its controlled faction, Buena Vista). Unfortunetly only the R3 DVD included Ghiblies 2, I didn't realise this until now :S.

Oh okay, how might I find an R3 release of The Cat Returns? How will I know if it's an R3?

Here's a place - http://global.yesasia.com/en/PrdDept.asp...pid-1002808879/

You'll know its R3 from the Japanese on the cover, plus the back cover is actually a cover for Ghiblies episode 2 (a sketchy class photo). The image gallery on the above site shows you what the dvd should look like.

I'm sorry that your dvd did not include the short...but as funny and enjoyable as it is, I don't think it is worth paying for another Cat Returns dvd. Maybe it will appear with other shorts one day :S

Wow, I didn't realize the set was a bootleg. I guess if the deal seems too good to be true, it probably is. Oh well, maybe I'll save up for that official box set. I already own the disney releases of The Cat Returns and Nausicaa though.

One thinkg though, I notice that the official box set is in Japanese. Where did the bootleggers get the English audio? Is there another set that has the English dubbing?

On the issue of "Ghiblies 2," for unknown reasons even the R3 DVDs (HK/TW) of "Neko no Ongaeshi" do not have the clip included. As far as I know, the R2 Japanese release of "Neko" by Buena Vista is the only official release with "Ghiblies 2" included.

As for the bootleg issue, just bear in mind that there is only one Ghibli DVD box set ever released, by IVL of Hong Kong and with a region code of 3. Anything that is not exactly the same as that set is a guranteed bootleg. So do check out the Yesasia links mentioned by E_Hakki before purchasing any "Ghibli collection/archive/whatever."

So it's pretty near impossible for me to get Ghibli's Ep 2 then? How hard is this DVD to find would you say? Is Ghibli's Ep 2 even any good? I don't care, I just wanna watch every Ghibli film , tis my goal.

Well its pretty easy to order it online, but it does seem to be generally more expensive than the other releases. Hmm since you're in Canada, you might be able to find it in a local DVD store that deals with imports.

Like I said earlier, it is very entertaining (my avatar is the picture of the main character)....but I personally would not be willing to pay a the full RRP price of a DVD, just for a 25min short (unless it was a rare SE or something).

I manage to get both shorts online Sorry, not helping, I know.

The short isn't something to scream about, but it isn't one to be missed either. It's better than the first Giblies, at least.
