Looks like my wallet is safe for the month of July (well, except for the Toradora! release)

[neonwalrus]

Will definitely be getting Devil is a Part-timer, then maybe Senran Kagura as a good after work anime to watch. I’ll have to wait and see what else comes out in the next few months.

[visoredavenger]

I'll get Railgun S if I can find it under $40
A lot of FUNimation anime has went up even on RightStuf. It really has hurt the amount of anime I buy

A Certain Scientific Railgun S, Part 1 - $59.98 - 7/1/14

Glory to based Biribiri!

[SpacemanHardy]

Funny how the second season of Railgun is coming out before the second season of Index, considering Index predates it by quite a while.

Also, no ultimate collector's edition for Devil is a Part Timer makes me has a sad. They could've really gone all out with that one. I was hoping to get a MgRonald's visor or matching salt and pepper shakers at least. :(

[Getchman]

wow, Railgun, Ben-to, Shana, Part-Timer and maybe Senran Kagura for me

[Riles]

Summer will have a ton of really good dubs

Pretty smart to made Deadman Wonderland a Classics, due to its assumed popularity from Toonami

Senran Kagura's English title makes me lol. I can only imagine the script lines that one's gonna have

And tossing in the Blu-Ray, as well.

I hope Burgmeier made Jamie Marchi head script writer

[Dragon0]

Railgun, Fairy Tail, Devil is a Part-timer, and Ben-to from funi for me.

[tattooedangel]

Woo Ben-to , been waiting so long . gonna be a good summer . time to start hiding my disposable income for a while.

And yet, no Evangelion 3.33…AGAIN. If the whole "reverse-importing" thing's the reason for the Japanese side of the distribution's delay, they're just shooting themselves in the foot the longer they stall (seriously, they're pretty encouraging people to get torrents at this point).

Before anyone jumps on me again, I'll ask (yet again): is it in their best interests to stay quiet, and not let us know what's going on?

[tattooedangel]

I know nothing about importing or reverse importing economics . I don't much care anymore tbh , ive avoided watching it until i could get my hands on a physical copy ( no theatre showings near me) but at this point a torrent is looking tempting.

[Soundmonkey44]

Still a waitin on Cowboy Bebop BDs… :p.

Guess Titan is my big anime purchase this summer, other then that.. Meh, may get Wonderland dunno.

I'd like to think they'll learn their lesson with scheduling releases (especially screwing up one THIS anticipated), but I've got the bitter feeling they'll just pull this again when 4.44 comes out…hopefully by then, another company with better PR will get their hands on the license.

[Zethus]

I hope Deadman Wonderland gets a Blu-Ray release because we can't just have it on DVD forever.

[tattooedangel]

ISnt the one listed a "combo" pack ? blu-ray/dvd ?

[Getchman]

yes the Deadman Wonderland release is a combo pack

Really tired of fans being impatient & whiny….it gets old fast. If people don't even care about how the industry works, they don't have a right to complain about it.

So basically, it's acceptable for the industry to dick around with release dates, essentially lie about their reasons for delaying something they KNOW people really want, and say absolutely nothing about it for months on end?

Regardless of the whole "importing/reverse-importing" thing, aren't you at all curious why they're not keeping us informed?
