We have a few more things in the works that we hope to unveil over the next week or so, including another new reward, some add-on items, and more! We also want to let everyone know that we are very seriously investigating the potential of making an English dub of the show a stretch goal, and are currently in discussions with a few companies to see how feasible that is, so expect more news on that soon as well! Thank you to everyone who's shown their support so far, and to anyone who will in the future - we're relying on your help to make this happen!
– ARIA
Hello all,
We've got a big update for you: ARIA The ANIMATION is now officially at verification! That means replication will be happening very soon.
Here's what this means for you:
1) When we submit the replication order, we need to know the final amount of discs to make. That means ARIA The ANIMATION (Season 1) will be REMOVED FROM THE SLACKER BACKER OPTIONS on August 6th at 11:59PM Central Time. If you have been waiting to put in a slacker backer order for season 1, do it ASAP!
Please note, the rest of the seasons and the Guidebook will still be available for purchase. When those items get closer to release, we'll give a cutoff date for them as well.
2) We can't give an exact season 1 release date, since the time it takes to replicate a set can vary. But as soon as the season 1 sets are received into our warehouse, they will be shipping out to US backers. You will receive a shipping notice when that happens, along with an estimated delivery date. So, consider this the last call: if you need to update your shipping information, please do so now! This link will take you where you need to go: https://www.rightstufanime.com/contact-us
INTERNATIONAL BACKERS: The initial plan was that all items for international backers (including tier rewards) would ship in a single shipment once all ARIA seasons were complete. However, we have received requests to do partial shipments by season, and are currently investigating the possibility for those who are interested (although there will be an additional shipping charge). We'll keep you posted as we figure out the details.
