Also, while the production art slideshow gallery is here (in HD), the stills gallery is not. On the DVD, you had 10 minutes worth of trailers, on the Blu-ray, you only get 5 minutes. The Making Of, and the Talk Session, are all here presented in SD. Also, unlike the DVD, the Blu-ray doesn't offer you the alternate angle Japanese language end credits. Any attempt to change these preferences on the fly is rebuffed, and you'll have to do it through the disc's main or pop-up menus. You can either watch it with Japanese and full translated subtitles, or in English with song only subtitles. Infuriatingly, this is one of those discs that lock the subtitle and audio streams. The Japanese audio on the other hand was far more subdued, and I had to push the volume up halfway before it was had the same effect. The English track is pretty pumped up, and what little I sampled of it was at the usual level for my Blu-ray viewing. It must be mentioned though that the volume levels of both tracks are quite different. It's the kind of powerful, dynamic, and expansive audio track that really brings the cinema experience home. It's far more effective in bringing out the film's action sequences, Michiru Oshima's epic music track, and the subtleties of the surround mix. While the DD 5.1 audio on the DVD was good, this lossless audio is better, richer, and more vibrant.

Sound Audio is where Conqueror of Shamballa really shines, with Dolby TrueHD 5.1 soundtracks in English and Japanese. These are just the few minor flaws that stop this from being a top-notch Blu-ray transfer, but otherwise this is a splendid release. There is a smidge of posterisation, a bit of digital banding in one particular scene, and very fine detail exhibits a bit of moiré, particularly on the CG animation of the rocket planes at the end. The difference between the two worlds is immediately striking in this version.

While Shamballa still exists somewhere between a TV show and a full-budget theatrical presentation, the HD experience does bring out a wealth of further detail, and the richness of the colour palette is streets ahead of the DVD. With the Blu-ray, there is none of that, and at the correct 24fps playback, there's no complaining about PAL speedup either. The DVD was good with the only real niggle some moments of compression during particularly busy sequences.

Picture The Conqueror of Shamballa is right at home on Blu-ray, with a 1080p 1.85:1 widescreen image that is a joy to watch. Instead, I hope that Manga chases the Fullmetal Alchemist OVAs.Īs mentioned, you can read about the film by clicking here. As I've already said, Funimation's Blu-ray is dual-region, and at the price that it can be imported, it would be cheaper than buying it locally. Given their track record on Blu-ray, I hope they reconsider. They have also made some noise about a UK Blu-ray release of The Conqueror of Shamballa. Riding high on the success of FMA: Brotherhood and the hype surrounding the Sacred Star of Milos movie, Manga Entertainment have subsequently announced that they will be releasing Sacred Star of Milos on Blu-ray and DVD later this year. As soon as I got Blu-ray'ed up, I began looking at those films that I desperately wanted to upgrade, and when I saw that Funimation's US release was coded for Region A and Region B, it became my first Blu-ray import. Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood was released in the UK by Manga Entertainment. As Brotherhood had a definite conclusion, The Sacred Star of Milos isn't so much a sequel as it is a side-story, although some anime forum goers have even gone as far as placing it in its own continuity. Brotherhood has itself spun of a feature film, Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos, which is currently enjoying a theatrical run in the US. This should not be confused with the subsequent 2009 Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood series, which adapted the whole of Hiromu Arakawa's manga, and is faithful to the original storyline throughout.
