They do more then that but it can be a very timely and expensive as well. I like the series but I really didn't think it was doing well enough to release on BD. |

Ooh! Lots of good stuff. I'll be purchasing Eden of the East: Movie 1, Rideback, Rosario+Vampire seasons 1 and 2, and part 4 of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood.

No Blu-Ray? Ouch... now I have to decide whether to gamble that there will be a LE Blu-Ray later in the year, or accept that the LE DVD in hand is enough.

There's complexities involved with that one, so don't expect 5-7 anytime soon. They have to outsource the dub and reunite the original cast and all that jazz. |

Didn't Jaffe already get started on Vol 5? I remember him tweeting or something about it...

I completely forgot that Funimation licensed more of the OVA episodes. 
I can't wait till they release the rest of them. I will definitely be getting them for my collection. I also look forward to watching the final episode of this series. The OVA's are so much better then the TV version, the art especially, hands down. |

Actually, those are pretty standard. Obviously the first season is more expensive because it's the limited edition one, but $60 for the second is right for a first run release.

still too price for a 12-13 ep series. I'd go for those prices if they were 24-26. 1/2 seasons (as I call the 12-13 eppers) I only bite at a $30 intro price or lower (usually bit if it's about $20-$25) |

I'm not sure why I didn't ponder this before, but I don't understand the rhyme or reason behind how some of Funi's new series are being released. For example:
Chrome Shelled Regios's two parts are being released on the same day, but only the first part of the LE version is being released. No BDs. In contrast, Ga-Rei Zero is being released in all four forms on the same day: standard DVD, LE DVD, standard BD & LE BD. Rosario + Vampire is even weirder. Season 1 is being released in LE form and Season 2 in standard form on the same day. No mention of BDs. No mention of a Rideback BD (which the series really deserves; the Rideback machines are mouth-wateringly beautiful). So my question is - how does Funi decide what is going to get a BD and what won't? Why are some standard and LE versions being released on the same day and others not (note: I am aware that standard versions won't be shipped until the LEs sell out, but that still doesn't explain why some series are showing solicitations in different versions on the same day and others aren't). Anyhoo, if anybody has any insight or thoughts on this, step up to the mike. |
