If you guys never heard of Narutaru, think in terms of Elfen Lied; cute characters with LOTS and LOTS of blood and gore (of course, I heard that happens later on).AnimeOnDVD wrote:PM Moves to Warner, Inadvertantly Announces New Licenses (11:29 AM EST): Reported some time back, CPM was moving to have the WEA group handle their wide ranging distribution of DVD releases. Some of the questions that have come up have been answered in the new PDF sent to customers today. One of those questions was whether the Anime 18 releases would be covered and that is a resounding yes as the bulk of the catalog is listed there.
Not everything is going to be immediately available for order for retailers though; According to the two schedules included, none of their Asian Pulp Cinema releases will be available for order until 2005, though there look to be plans for price drops for them when they are resolicited with new tag numbers. What anime is listed is mostly titles that have been announced for release in January and February which makes sense.
Of interest, the Yu Yu Hakusho Movie: Poltergesit Report will not be reissued, which means they've probably lost the license for that and we may see it in the future elsewhere.
Amusingly, they list a number of titles on Schedule B that have not been announced as licensed yet and a couple of shows that aren't on DVD yet:
# Outlanders (7/12/05)
# Shadowstar Narutaru (4 volumes) (4/12 - 10/11)
# Patlabor: New Files Vol. #1 (6/14/05)
# Angel Blade (3/8/05)
# Patlabor TV #10 (3/8/05)
Dammit, I knew I should got those fansubs.
