I just took another good look at it (and edited my post just as you were making yours). It does say "Morasoft" instead of Microsoft. Still kinda weird about the "Windows 95" font being exactly the same, you'd think that'd need a copyright to be animated. Either way it's a cool detail to put into the Disappearance world.

Well, I don't know 'bout you, but I can definitely make out "Microsoft". And like I said, they dropped all support so that may include legal support.
If not, they probably don't even care anymore for a copyright. |

Don't think so. Those screens that showed Windows XP in the series were much better product placement in that case. Besides, even product placement needs royalties. I think.
Yes I did, but I'm not sure it matters much. |

I also think that it's product placement. Otherwise, KyoAni could be in a lot of trouble.
One odd thing is that it's for an obsolete version of Windows. You'd think that Microsoft would at least want to have it be Windows XP (Windows 7 is probably too new for it to fit in the Disappearance story).

Sure, 95 might be a bit too far out, but anything pre-2K is pretty much obsolete. |

Yes, but the movie will probably get watched by more people than the series did. If your a company aiming for product placement, you'd probably want to reach the most people possible.
Anyway, it's no big deal, I just find this a bit odd from Microsoft's perspective (if they paid for this product placement).

It's on their Japanese store here. I have not ordered from there, so I do not know if they ship to the Philippines or not. I was lucky to pre-order mine from AmiAmi (who has half off EMS shipping this month, but are sold out of the guidebook). Good luck finding it!

Aegisofrime and I are looking forward to the guide's arrival in Kinokuniya locally. I myself will check it out this weekend, as well as pick up some of the magazines I have been missing out lately, so hopefully I get to see some Yuki love there |
