I didn’t notice the studio canal part. That don’t actually bother me.
A pic has been posted in the my neighbour Totoro Australian thread too and it looks no different. Unless it’s a wrong pic
Inside art exactly the same pic but not printed in exactly the same place @Flloydo. Steel book is the same but with a slightly different spine. And more discs in it of course
If you can overlook some slight differences when compared to the UK Studio Canal releases like with the spine, different aligned inside artwork and extra disc housing then yes in a way they are. The only drawback is you are ultimately given up that uniformity you would get if you stuck with only the UK releases especially if you don’t unseal your Ghibli Steels as the J Card / data card Slip is quite different.
