It was pretty inexpensive and it was a way to support the film since I can’t see it in theaters (sadly). I hope it gets a Blu-ray release.

    I think animation is a bit of a different beast. Compared to live action movies, animation finds little respect among the wider populace, unless they have Disney or Pixar stamped on the cover (and mayyybe Dreamworks). Most studios are aware of this and don’t bother investing in new stuff these days because they think there’s no money in it. It’s important to show support for good animation with original stories and great characters, so studios understand they need to make more of these kinds of movies/shows. That being said, I’m not sure Sony will read this as anything more than the need to make 4 sequels, 10 seasons and a couple of spin-offs. Hopefully they get the message…

      Right, exactly. I think Sony sees this as a money-making venture, especially since the original deal to license KPDH to Netflix was not great.
