While I do commend the many animators that make the anime so many people watch, I wish most studios would pay them a lot better. For example, an animator may work over 100 hours/week but make only $800-$1000/month.

That is a cool feature to have on the home-release discs of an anime about making anime.

If they ever dub this, I hope this gets included on the dub BDs (even if it's only subtitled)

It's coming from Sentai, so don't get your hopes up. Extras cost $$$ and most fans here don't want to pay $$$.

Man, if there's any show i would want Sentai to put the effort into getting a few extras it would be this. They probably wouldn't put in that effort though. Wish i understood japanese and had more spare change so that i could at least import it.

It would be a miracle if Sentai included these extras just subtitled. The only licensee I've seen include videos like this for US releases in recent years is Aniplex.

I have to agree with both ultramegax and configspace. A lot of people in North America want their anime disc to be cheapest as possible and don't seem to care about nice extras. What you pay is what you get.

I don't know how well licensed anime discs are sold in the NA in terms of numbers, but it's inevitable to see licensees jumping into premium/limited editions territory to make their product more attractive. I can't help thinking that NA anime physical media market is slowly becoming collector's market like Japan.
