Grav's Thoughts:
So this was certainly an interesting filler month.

New Initial D the Movie Legend 1: Awakening
Just to clarify I have set every complete set as Region A for now. Both The Familiar of Zero and Higurashi: When They Cry have English dubs for their first season episodes only, as the rest are Japanese with English subtitles only.
Some of these re-releases will be re-authored by the looks of things. Most notably The Familiar of Zero and To-Love Ru. The Familiar of Zero's complete collection release is noted to have 8 discs instead of 6 discs. The show's second and fourth seasons previously had 1 disc releases. Meanwhile To-Love Ru's complete collection release is noted to have 9 discs instead of 8 discs, as every season except Season 4: Trouble Darkness had crammed episodes on few discs. Season 1 was 2 discs, Season 2: Motto was 1 disc, and Season 3: Darkness was 1 disc. UPDATE: I've received word that Cross Ange will also be re-authored as well, with the entire 2-cour series authored to 3 discs with the 4th disc containing all of the extras.
Clannad has had some authoring quality issues (something to do with bitrate I believe) but it looks like we'll be getting the same 6 discs as the previous release. Higurashi will also be the same 9 discs as Sentai balanced the arcs between the discs for the first two seasons. Chaika and Hakkenden look to be the same discs also.
