I see, so I just asked the university library to purchase this item for their East Asian Library collection. Do you think the purchasing representative for the library will find a way to get it? Given that, according to Krazer, "the Arise Bluray will have English subtitles."

I don't know how easy it is in your country, as I'm from Germany. But when the BDs will have subs, it shouldn't be a problem.

If you were to buy the film that has subtitles where would you buy it?

I know BDs as Bluray Discs :D. I would ask amazon or the local bookstore.

<p>According to various nets and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_in_the_Shell:_Arise" rel="nofollow noreferrer">the Wikipedia page</a>, <em>Ghost in the Shell: Arise</em> "is scheduled for limited cinematic release in Japan on June 22, 2013." </p>

<p>What I'd like to know is, when its release in the United States will be?</p>

<hr>

<p>Border 1--the first of four episodes in the <em>ARISE</em> series--is available at Mitsuwa Japanese Grocery in Santa Monica. It's $9.99. Border 2 will be coming out November 30, 2013 in Japan, but I'm not sure how it will be finding itself into the United States' market after this date.</p>
