Anubis is open source under the MIT license. If the branding is an issue, fork it, change the branding, call it good.

The MIT license makes it, effectively, a whitebox solution. You can change the branding to whatever you want it to be.

If your colleagues are people of a technical inclination they should understand that. If they don’t I would question their competence and literacy. If they’re not technical in nature I would question why any such proposal is reaching their desk without having first been rebranded, implemented in a test environment, thouroughly tested, and then (and only then) being presented as a proof of concept.

I do, though not in the last year or so.

My experience was generally pretty good. Things generally showed up well packaged and undamaged. The worst I’ve had was a CD that showed up with a crack in the jewel case, but those things are so fragile it’s entirely possible I did that just by breathing on it wrong.

Shipping times are about what you would expect for things being shipped from Japan. At least where I’m at it was usually 1-2 weeks and half that time would be waiting for it to clear customs.

I don’t have any recommendations for specific soundtracks, but a couple of good sites for buying them are:

CDjapan a site that allows for buying from Japanese vendors with a focus on media (of all kinds).

Materia Store Materia is an independent music publisher. They publish a bunch of anime, video game, and movie soundtracks as well as remixes.

I wouldn’t describe Demon Slayer as a masterpiece. It’s visually stunning, not only in terms of the artwork, but also the animation and cinematography. It has spectacular sound design, in terms of its soundtrack, its ambient sounds, and its effects work.

But its writing is a haphazard mix of shounen and seinen tropes that ultimately leave its story boring and predictable and its characters drab and one-note.

Granted, I only watched Demon Slayer through Mugen Train, maybe it gets better after that?

Attack on Titan stands out on OPs list as a show that has all of the same issues. Both were really fun to watch for a bit, but ultimately failed to hold my interest.

Someone already said Cowboy Bebop, so I’ll say Kids on the Slope.

It’s another series directed by Shinichiro Watanabe with Yoko Kanno doing a lot of the composition.
