Sentai Filmworks offers more titles from the early 2015 season to this line-up.
Here's the list of anime that Sentai & Aesir Holdings have scheduled for the month of August 2016.
There's no collector's edition sets for this line-up. The Aesir title is a re-release, probably to replace the type of case the previous set used. Also the Blu-ray uses a geo-locking so US refers to the United States country.
Interestingly enough this month also has no 1-disc subtitle only Blu-ray sets. All subtitle-only titles are 2 discs.

This line-up is fairly small but there's some new shows now getting released. Recently Sentai had acquired Trinity Seven and When Supernatural Battles Became Commonplace and now both of them are on this solicitation with English dubs so that's probably expected. Both shows aired during the Autumn 2014 anime season.
Wake Up Girls TV appears after its movie instalment showed up prior, this title simulcast during the Winter 2014 season. I'm curious to know whether Sentai would end up with the ZOO specials or not. I'm not fussed that the series turned out subtitle only, generally I feel idol shows are best kept in Japanese to support the VAs singing/playing those parts.
Punch Line appears! I didn't expect to like this show so much when I first saw it but as the show progresses it changed my expectations and I ended up loving it. The Spring 2015 show was animated by studio MAPPA (Rage of Bahamut: Genesis, Terror in Resonance, Ushio & Tora 2015) and written by Kotaro Uchikoshi (Zero Escape series ~ 999, Virtue's Last Reward, Zero Time Dilemma) for those curious and there's even a game soon to be released that provides a different end to the series.
Gourmet Girl Graffiti was a surprise appearance. TBS is known for putting Blu-ray hold-backs on countless titles but this one is getting released with a Blu-ray alongside the DVD. I wonder if the Blu-rays sold enough in Japan for TBS to allow this decision. This show aired during the Winter 2015 season.
That's pretty much it for my thoughts on this line-up. It's short but we get more shows from the newer seasons out of the way. I'm still waiting for Knights of Sidonia: Battle for Planet Nine to appear.
