Welcome to the January 2022 US industry release schedule blogpost which covers the latest home video anime releases for United States and Canada from distributors Aniplex of America, Discotek Media, Funimation and Sentai Filmworks.
If a series or film is not scheduled until after January, then they’ll be listed under the Coming Soon section instead.
The blogpost will be released once Funimation has revealed their line-up which is often announced first between 14th-18th every month. This is then followed by Sentai Filmworks around 21st-30th, Discotek around the end of the month to early next month, and Aniplex with an irregular schedule so there may be months with nothing planned from them at all.
Each title below will have links when available, and all prices listed below don’t include VAT or Customs. Finalised artwork will be presented below when available (with some exceptions).
The schedule below is up-to-date as of Sunday 7th November 2021.
Any delayed releases will be mentioned in the list below:
- Anime – was (this date), now (that date)
Disclaimer: Amazon links included in this post are affiliated so if you decide to order them, I’ll earn a small percentage if they dispatch. Due to COVID, international shipping restrictions may apply for select items.
