If you are at Otakon... stop reading this and get to the panel room!

If you aren't there, get to Youtube, it's just about time to start.

A couple minutes of a countdown for Discotek Day with the STILL Not Live from Otakon Stream!

Get there before it starts

And here we go...

We aren't live, but get to Youtube because it's Discotek Day!


Image
Under 1 minute until we start revealing stuff, so it's time to go! Image
To start off with, a new version of our sizzle trailer.

We know how much all of you like new versions, and we have some big titles appearing in this one.
For the proper start, let's start off with a toku heavy hitter!

Space Sheriff Shaider!
Yes, it's Space Sheriff Shaider.

We've heard we can't possibly get the show... unlicensable we've seen some people say! Image
Space Sheriff Shaider is coming!

Remastered in HD! Top quality subtitles just like our other Space Sheriff releases.

Plus solid extras.

The Space Sheriff Trilogy will soon be complete.

Very soon, it's out in September. Image
It's time for Discotek Day in Otakon.

We have a massive number of announcements to go over, so... gotta keep going.

Run and grab a drink if you need one, cause this is a big one. Image
The stream is hosted by @worldofcrap, @dubudavid, @bradyhartel, @MichaelToole, & @MarcFBR.

The magic of pre-recording means I'm posting these tweets & hosting at the same time.

David & myself aren't at the Otakon panel. Image
A bit about Discotek Media.

It's time for a special from everyone's favorite thief.

Lupin the 3rd: Italian Game!
Lupin the 3rd: Italian Game is coming to Blu-ray!

The 25th Lupin special adds a bit to Lupin Part 4.

It uses a few episodes of TV show content mixed with a decent portion of new material.

It's coming next month. Image
A preview of the packaging and disc label.

It'll sit next to all those other Lupin TV specials really nicely.

Image
Image
Image
Welp, all done. Lupin the 3rd is caught up.

A few things out of print. A few not on Blu-ray. A few from other companies. But the Lupin anime has hit home video in English in some form or another for fans.

So are we done?

Not quite... but that's a heist for later... Image
Let's keep going, with a big classic...

Captain Harlock: Space Pirate!

But some other titles have been on all of your minds... Image
Digimon the Movies... is still in approvals.

It's pretty close though, we hope to have more to say soon. Just lots of things to be approved.

New dub for all 3, the original Japanese movies, and Digimon the Movie, plus extras, just means lots of stuff that needs thumbs up on. Image
But some more Digimon for now...

IGPX is up to pre-order!

The action-mech racing classic from Toonami is racing in at high-speed in one of the craziest sets we've ever made.

Takeshi, Liz, & Amy are coming in at high-speed & we have a ton to go over for this one.

store.crunchyroll.com/products/igpx-…
The show has gotten a brand new upscale from @astrores.

Both versions: Toonami & Production I.G

The masters were tracked down to put both versions of the show together in a new ultimate collection.
The Toonami version has its unique music, sound effects, Peter Cullen narration, & more, just like you remember from TV.

The audio is available as both English 2.0 & 5.1, plus English captions for the entire series.

It's Discotek Day! I'm @marcfbr & it's time to tell you about the new titles you can pre-order right now that are coming out in May!

But first, let's answer the question you probably have about them being for May...
Disc replication & shipping for various companies has been slow since the holiday season.

It looks like it's getting back to normal, but just in case, we're skipping April.

But May will be a massive month of releases with 20 discs over 8 releases!

And they are big ones.
Digimon Season 2

The 2nd season of the classic English dub of Digimon gives the adventures of Davis, Veemon, & co. a brand new high quality upscale cleaning up decades of video issues.

The battle against the Digimon Emperor has never looked as good!

Planet With is out!

A cat-themed robot with high-speed action is a bit of a different combo!

The show has lots of character fun, on top of the plentiful action, & is quite dense.

rightstufanime.com/Planet-With-Bl…
Really dynamic and wild audio in this one, it'll shake the room (it happened while working on the disc for a few of us in fact...)

Twitter isn't great for audio, but you should still get a decent example here.
Extras include:
Clean OPs & EDs
The final episode of the show with alternate music
A selection of promos & commercials ImageImageImageImage

Project A-ko 2 is out!

The 2nd adventure with A-ko and the gang has been fully remastered based on the original film! The subtitles have been gone over, and the dub has been synced to the new remaster.

rightstufanime.com/Project-A-ko-2…
Project A-ko 2 has quite a bit of extras, which is a shock, as you'd think we used up everything when we did A-ko!

It has galleries, a stack of trailers, plus more, including the animation from the LaserDisc asking you to flip it. ImageImageImage
A few more images of the gallery extras.

A look at a vintage PC-88 game and all the A-ko 2 home video packaging we could track down! ImageImage

Sherlock Hound is up to pre-order!

The classic Hayao Miyazaki & Kyosuke Mikuriya series features a fun take on Holmes, with dynamic animation, good writing, & amusing characters.

rightstufanime.com/Sherlock-Hound…
The series got a pretty nice remaster in Japan, which is here, and the subtitles have been gone over.
The English dub ran a bit longer than the Japanese & has been recreated w/ remastered Japanese footage & the extra footage has been upscaled & color corrected as nicely as possible.

In fact, the clip at the beginning of this thread switches between sources a number of times.
