Re: Media Blasters New Title Solicitations (Jan '13)

That Shamanic Princess announcement is news, isn't it? I don't remember hearing anything about them having that before. I already have the CPM release, so there's not much incentive for me to get MB's version, but it is a great OVA series.

You're correct. That's a new license (rescue).

The link is broken for the second anime on the list.

It's fixed now.

I need to get Shamanic Princess again. Every time I want to rewatch it, I am reminded that it is not there.

I also have it, but for anyone who didn't get it, Rightstuf have it listed for $12, a great price.

Re: Media Blasters 2013 Solicitations Thread

Thats a huge delay for Ai no Kusabi, how are they staying afloat with so few releases, everyone they employ cant really have this as their only job...

[WTK]

Re: Media Blasters 2013 Solicitations Thread

So they really do have the Fushigi Yugi OVAs. And judging from the TRSI listing name, I guess Eikoden is excluded from this release. The running time seems a bit goofy though.

And more delays from MB nowadays seems like something you would expect.

[_PS_]

Re: Media Blasters 2013 Solicitations Thread

Well, assuming these come out, I'll be getting them.

Re: Media Blasters 2013 Solicitations Thread

Well, some traditions still hold. Even in their boom days, MB always delayed a bunch of stuff around the holidays to focus on getting caught up with all their previously solicited releases. Assuming MB truly are back on their feet, I expect these latest round of spring release dates to be the final ones...

[Buckeye]

Re: Media Blasters 2013 Solicitations Thread

Not surprising with the delays. It has been standard practice for MB to have their titles not coming out when it is first solicited.

Re: Media Blasters 2013 Solicitations Thread

• Fushigi Yugi: OVA Collection (Series 1-2) - 295 minutes - $34.99 - 2/26/13

Contains episodes 1-3 of OVA series one and episodes 1-6 of OVA series two.

So no Eikoden OVA with this release.

Amazon.com now has a release date of 3/12/13 for Ai no Kusabi: The Space Between.
