Welcome to the March 2021 solicitations for the US anime home video releases, covering Aniplex of America, Discotek Media, Funimation, and Sentai.
Each title has been colour-coded to represent which distributor they belong to. Aniplex of America titles are Dark Orange, Funimation titles are Purple, Sentai titles are Blue, and Discotek titles are Red. Finalised artwork will also be presented below if available.
In the previous month I published the news slate early because of Sentai taking longer than usual, but in this instance they actually released it early due to the Christmas season so it was a good opportunity to publish the post at a decent pace.
Aniplex titles have been added to the list, though their schedule is irregular so new additions may be added after the post goes live. In addition, their releases are exclusive to Rightstuf (but can also be acquired on United Publications for UK importers).
UPDATE: Following has been delayed:
- Phantasy Star Online 2: Episode Oracle Part 1 – was 9th March, now 11th May
Disclaimer: Amazon links are also included when available. They are affiliated so if you decide to order them, I’ll earn a small percentage if they ship which will help me with any hauls or small bills.
