Grav's Thoughts on the Release Slate:
So for the month of April we have four titles.
Autumn 2015:
Haikyu!! (Season 2)
Spring 2016:
Ajin: Shoutotsu [included with Ajin Season 2]
Autumn 2016:
Ajin: Demi-Human (Season 2)
Ajin: Shougeki [included with Ajin Season 2]
ClassicaLoid (Season 1)
Utano Prince Sama: Legend Star
Winter 2017:
Urara Meirocho
As you may have noticed, the second season of Haikyu!! was pushed back to the April slate. Production issues I believe, which is a given considering it has been an on-going trend for their limited edition sets as well.
Ajin: Demi-Human Season 2 is the highlight of the month, bringing more Ajin goodness for anime fans on home video plus adding in the remainder of the movie trilogy version for no added cost! Thankfully they reduced the SRP of the limited edition but I'll be sticking with the Anime Limited version since it's cheaper and better design/packaging wise in my opinion.
ClassicaLoid, Urara Meirocho and the fourth season of Utano Prince Sama all appear in this release slate as well. All three are Japanese with English subtitles only which was a given for the Utano Prince Sama series, but the other two are more-or-less expected. I would have thought ClassicaLoid would warrant a dub considering it's got a second season currently airing but I guess it's not that popular.
That's it for the month of April, here is what's left of the catalogue.
