A few more titles has surfaced from AAA Anime. Right now we have BLOOD-C (both SKUs), Shin-Chan S3, and Toriko: Collection 1 (not sure if that MSRP is right).

EDIT: RACS posted the listings. Barring late addition(s), this is it for January. I guess they are burnt out from the December '12 releases.

That seems really light, even for a month where they try to cool down. Usually we get a few more reissues than this. That MSRP for Toriko also seems a tad sketchy to me, usually that's a price reserved for DVD-only LE releases or a standard DVD/BD combo. Not to mention it's $25 higher than the norm for Toei releases. I get the feeling we might be in for a few surprises come January. They seem to like doing that.

The MSRP matches up. So unless FUNimation provided AAA Anime and RACS wrong specs, it's correct.

It's certainly possible. It would not surprise me if some of the December '12 releases get bumped to January '13.

It's the same price on TRSI, but that still can't be right unless we're getting a metric crapton of bonus content or an artbox no one has mentioned beforehand.

Funimation Reduces the Price for Toriko

One day after sending out their January schedule, Funimation sent over an update to let us know that they have changed the price for the first Toriko boxed set.

The original MSRP was $64.98, but the new MSRP is now $39.98.

Looks like we have a few more additions to the January lineup coming in from December:

Baka and Test Season 2: 1/15/13
Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt BD: 1/15/13
Shakugan no Shana the Movie: 1/22/13
Shakugan no Shana S: 1/22/13

I had a feeling there would be more delays. So my wallet will take a delayed hit after it seemed like December is when I shelled out a lot of money for stuff from Funimation.

Nothing for me. That is rare for Funi. I got 6 of the releases last January.
