Forgot they had Kanokon.

Not that I'd buy it in singles anyway.

[Draneor]

Media Blasters got Kanokon? Well, I guess I can see it.

I can't seem to find any record of it getting announced though...

I wonder what's so "Special" about the Dokuro-chan Special Edition...

[LelouchLamperouge]

I'll be buying Kanokon Vol.#1 ... I won't explain said reasons. I just will.

Singles don't bother me. Still pretty used to them.

It has a dub.

I'm pretty much done with singles. Genshiken 2 is the last show I plan to buy that way.

I can wait for a set for Kanokon. And now I may finally get Ah My Buddha.

[Konoha]

Hmm, GoLion and Tekkaman Blade were pretty much mini collections anyway, now they get a collection? Heh.

Also.

Remastered Magic Knight Rayearth is delayed again? A 3 month delay?? Good grief.

Oh... Well, that certainly does make it "Special". At least it proves that Media Blasters is willing to go back and dub releases that have done exceptionally well sub-only; Loveless was brought up, but Dokuro-chan is showing that it is actually being done.

Anyway, I'm fine with my sub-only Dokuro-chan as there wasn't any missing in terms of episodes or such. Now if MB re-releases Punie-chan with the mini-omake episodes that were not in the DVD that was released, then I'll rebuy, especially if it comes with a new dub.

Hey, it's nice that they're even being re-released in general. Maybe MB can continue off of Tekkaman Blade and actually pick up Tekkaman Blade II and give it a nice re-release finally... Not to mention otehr small Tatsunoko OVAs that could use a good re-release, like Shin Hurricane Polymar. I'm still of the mind that it would certainly be nice and helpful if there are actual Tatsunoko shows on store shelves for purchase not too long after Tatsunoko vs. Capcom comes out late this month... You never know who might be interested in checking out a show after being interested in a character from the game.

As for Rayearth... Oh well, I have it pre-ordered so I'll get sooner or later.
