April 2024 Solicitations for US Anime Home Video Releases

Welcome to the April 2024 US industry release schedule blogpost which covers the latest home video anime releases for United States and Canada from distributors Aniplex of America, Crunchyroll, Discotek Media, and Sentai Filmworks.

These news posts are generally released once Crunchyroll or Sentai had revealed their line-up which is often announced first between 14th-18th every month. The post will then be updated to include Discotek and Aniplex when available.

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). As of October 2023, Otaku UK, Rightstuf & United Publication links will no longer be covered. In return, Crunchyroll Store and Sentai Store will be featured instead, but both only ship domestically for US & Canada (for international fans, I recommend checking out Stackry to forward the items to them so they can be sent to your area).

The schedule below is up to date as of Thursday 25th April 2024.

Any delayed releases will be mentioned in the list below.
