Quick Correction: It was later clarified that the "Mazinkaiser" mentioned is not the OVA series that ADV had previously released, but rather is just a re-release of Mazinkaiser SKL, which Media Blasters still has the rights to.
Which does suck. I love SKL & am happy to see that it's going to be in print again, but I'd love to see a new release for the OG Mazinkaiser OVA, especially one that finally includes the movie that ADV never released. |

How is Media Blasters even still alive?

By keeping a low profile and not biting off any more than they can chew. Also by streaming English-language hentai when no one else would. |

At least they quit their awful not working DVD-r releases. Got a not working ladies versus butlers and kanakon.... also the labeling was messed up. Incorrect content.... Their blurays work fine. |

Happy to see the much maligned, underrated Doomed Megalopolis listed. It's weird and it's pretty great! And the inspiration for M. Bison/Vega from Street Fighter II!

Nice to see them coming back to life. Hope it’s successful for them.

It's like Toykopop. They both somehow stay afloat. |

Great News in all honesty for new collectors. However still picked up all of majority of these on DVD back in 2010/11 so I have little reason to double dip.

I'd still like Simoun on bluray, if they still have the rights to that (maybe with proper subtitle timing on eps 5 and 6 this time, eh?)

I'd really like to see Simoun on bluray myself-it'd be a no brainer for me.

Still waiting for my Fushigi Yugi blu-rays! But this is good.

I'm amazed that Media Blasters is still around. And,it's around in a time in which other companies like ADV,Streamline,and others have basically disappeared from the scene. I don't know how they were able to do this but it's an achievement in and of itself. This company's like a combination of a cockroach and the Energizer Bunny. They both keep going and going where others might not. Still,I'm surprised this company's still here after all this time.

You and me both. I have a Blu-ray player so why not make the most of it? Choosing DVD over Blu-ray is like choosing Taco Bell over authentic Mexican food. I'm surprised Grenadier is going to get the Blu-ray treatment. Are there any HD masters floating around or will this be an upscaled release? Or will it be a SD-BD release with all the episodes on one disc? |

Its almost like they dug through every Anime clubs catalogue from the early 00's lol |
