Anime Expo - Media Blasters

By Andrew Tei     July 04, 2003

John Sirabella presided over the Media Blaster panel. He mentioned that Kenshin is doing very well, and sales have gone up due to it showing on Cartoon Network. This will the year of Kyo and 12 Kingdoms though.

12 Kingdoms will be a really intense release. There will be quite a bit of liner notes included just like Kenshin, plus printed material. Each arc will be set so that they end it on a DVD.

Leo will have a theatrical art house release in bigger cities.

They are still hoping to get more Weiss Kreuz which is split across three different companies. They will be releasing My Sexual Harassment (Boku wa Sexual Harassment), which is yaoi. The reissuing of Iria with a new box and they are gathering extras. They are aiming at a premium box release with a target of November. 7 of 7 will come out also.

The big announcement of course was Gunparade March, which they will be releasing with a company called D-Rights, which is how they also got Iria. It will be released on 3 DVDs with 4 episodes each. There are tentative plans to release Gunparade March with toy figures.

The first Kenshin boxset will be released towards the end of the year, one for each arc. They will be premium boxsets.

Tales of Eternia is going through some problems in gathering materials and additional rights issue.
