On Monday February 9, MVM will release the Blu-ray edition of Otorimonogatari (the DVD edition is already available). This four-part series is part of the Monogatari franchise. MVM describes the series as follows:

Nadeko encounters a giant snake who claims to be a deity named Kuchinawa. Kuchinawa promises Nadeko that he would grant her wish if she aids him in the search of his object of worship. Little does Nadeko know that obtaining the object of worship will cost her more than what she expected. Koyomi tries to convince Nadeko to let go of the object of worship, but it's too late, and Nadeko swallows the object and becomes a snake apparition! To make things worse, now Nadeko wants to kill Koyomi and Shinobu Oshino!

MVM will also release a collected edition of Chrome Shelled Regios. The company describes the series as follows:

After the world has fallen into a state of disrepair, humanity has retreated to huge mobile cities named Regios. With the Earth now populated by contaminated life-forms, humanity must defend itself by using weapons called DITE. One young man trying to forget his past arrives in the Regios named Zuellini, but soon catches the attention of those who would use his considerable skills for their own ends.

Manga Entertainment will release the twentieth box-set of Naruto Shippūden, carrying episodes 245 to 257 of the series.
