Yeah! Maybe that means I'll finally get the Destroy All Monsters DVD I ordered back in May!

I thought of Media Blasters the other day when I was walking through a Fry's and decided to look for the Moribito blu-rays that have been on my to-buy list, but couldn't find them there. I should probably pick those up sooner rather than later...

Also, did they ever get that Fushigi Yuugi rerelease out the door?

Unfortunately this "marking" doesn't mean anything. All it means is Media Blasters "paid their taxes" and are current. Doesn't mean that Media Blasters is solvent though.

Hopefully they'll stick around long enough to get the Fushigi Yuugi OVAs out the door. Only part of that series that I don't own.

I'm hoping to buy Fushigi Yuugi, the completed series, as well. But, I'd like to see MB get back on its feet and flourish like the good ol' niche anime company that licenses incest porn we all know and love.

Man, and to think; I was so close to sending my resume to them.

This whole rigamarole has just confused me. It's all had the look of being terribly significant and momentous, but it feels like this has been a lot of sound and fury signifying tedious paperwork. I guess it's nice the Media Blasters exists... or whatever...

Hurray for filing tax forms!!

Well, that should be just one less thing to distract them from the real goal of getting dvd's onto store shelves.

Considering their prices have really never gone down since their releases, now is as good a time as any. Shawnek (Rightstuf) is currently selling the 2nd part for only $25 shipped, but it looks like you're going to have to shell out a little more for part 1; dvdpricesearch doesn't have the first part listed for me to look up the prices.

Nice to see some good new about a US company. Hopefully this means that Media Blasters moving past its troubles and can start knocking down releases with a more regular pace now.
