Animation on Blu-ray Disc
Compiled using information from the Asian Blu-ray Guide, Blu-Ray Region Code Info, Blu-ray.com and Hi-Def Release Lists. The list will, for now, only include English-subtitled releases of non-digital animation. And I'm afraid that, due to the UK-focused nature of it, I've haven't yet included Australian releases other than the few that I've come across serendipitously… A * indicates a non-original aspect ratio release: though I generally commend the release of pre-digital animation in high definition, these particular releases crop or distort the original image to an unacceptable degree and so should be avoided.
