I don't want to start rumors, but I saw something that I hope someone out there can clarify.

I own an anime/game business. I was perusing through my games distributors website (he also sells anime) and after seeing a lot of worthy games (Henry Hill's Mafia RPG looks very promising) and crying over one that was out of stock (Red Dwarf RPG. Yes, I'm talking about the British sci-fi series), I came across a listing as follows:

Maison Ikkoku DVD Season 1

It was clearly marked as NYA, but the company in question makes a habit of making sure they don't list something unless it's definitely coming out (and soon). My contact at the company wasn't able to tell me anything. Anyone out there have any info on this?

If I remember right, I heard July. If I could get Rumic World to work, I'll find out for sure.

Yeah, this was announced some time ago. My first reaction was "huh. Maison Ikkoku on DVD. Hell must have frozen over or something"

Laughing
They didn't even finish the VHS release, did they? I heard it was only through special mail order, and perhaps only subbed?

It's definitely coming out, and soon.
I got my order from my distributor today and the pre-order listings have Maison Ikkoky DVd series 1 coming out sometime in June for $55 SRP.
Other series you may be interested in:

Initial D vol. 1
You're Under Arrest: The Movie

All are scheduled for sometime in June.

It was posted in July, but I hope they did push up the date up. $55? That's a deal there.

So far as I can tell, the price in the book is the retail price. However, if that's a NET listing (it doesn't say it is, though), it's going to be higher on your end at the store.
