I'll get the Rosario+Vampire re-releases since I didn't get the original releases. Interesting to see Summer Wars get a re-release now, and as a combo pack this time. I have the original Blu-ray with the slipcover, so there's no reason for me to get that. I will be getting the Last Exile releases during the next FUNimation sale, obviously the Limited Edition for Part 1. Very surprising to see Eden of the East re-released as DVD and Blu-ray separately after the first re-release was a combo pack. I have the original Blu-ray set of that, so it doesn't matter to me anyway. Nothing else.

Missed out on Summer Wars the first time so I'll definitely pick that up. A little strange that Revolution and Evolution R are getting an Anime Classics release but I'll probably get the Blu-ray of that as well. Also wasn't Eden of the East already re-released in combo format?

Would get Scientific Raygun if it had a Blu-ray release...

Edit: Oh wow, didn't even see Last Exile on there for some reason. I'll be getting that too.

DVD Only again for a Railgun/Index series... so no buy from me. In a way I'm ok with that though, since I'd be annoyed if half of the ones I bought were LE's and half of them not. I'll just wait for the inevitable BD/DVD Combo down the line.

I'll definitely get Last Exile LE and part 2.
I think Funi have missed a trick with their Eden of the East re-release. Madman in Australia has released a Blu-Ray pack containing the TV series + the Movies in one set, which is what I figured Funimation would do as well.

So yeah, that's it for me I guess.

Strange everything's being packed into the end of the month. Wonder if Guilty Crown pt. 1 will be joining the party. Future Diary as well.

[ToAruOni]

Will most likely pick up Last Exile Fam LE. Skipping Railgun since it's DVD-only.

[MythicalFangNZ]

It looks like it is mostly a re-release month from FUNimation. I think I will pass on everything this month. I have a lot of them for their initial release.

Good to see FUNimation come to their senses on the Eden of the East re-releases. The MSRPs make more sense now. DVD was $49.98 and now it's $34.98. Blu-ray was $54.98 and now it's $39.98.
