Man, I am excited for Devilman and the '80s Astro Boy series on BD. Might also pick up Kekkaishi.

I’m serious when I say The Darkstalkers OVA is one of the best looking anime out there. Beautiful art/animation wasted on a boring story.

I recall watching Kekkaishi and enjoying what I saw (I also loved the soundtrack during the fights), but I stopped halfway for some reason. Guess this is a good opportunity to pick it back up.

It'd be nice if the live-action included Sailor Moon

With this new release of Violence Jack, people can finally see a woman get ripped apart, crotch to chest, in 2K.

Waiting for Discotek to do a 2K blu-ray release of MD Geist which has the original version and the director's cut of the first OVA. lol I'm sure it's going to happen eventually.

Hmm, is Discotek going to end up doing all of A-Ko redone for BD? If so, then I wonder if they'll put out a nice box set...

Same. Also the Haruka Nogizaka Finale OVAs (though I doubt it at this point) Sad

A box set of A-Ko would be nice. They did throw everything and the kitchen sink in the first one on Blu-ray however.

I hope they re-release Dragon Half on Blu-ray along with a few other titles they have that are still DVD only. The Little Mermaid comes to mind.

Yeah, and I wouldn't mind picking up just that for that reason, but if they're going to do all 4 movies (and since the follow ups aren't quite up to par), then I'd just like a set I can get all at once (and replace my old CPM set with Laughing)

So little love here for Cyber City Oedo? I'm excited for that release. After that I only need Midnight Eye Goku for my Yoshiaki Kawajiri-collection.
