Every anime released on Blu-ray this month is getting an English dub! Surprising.
As a brief reminder, there will be no DVD versions for any brand new releases and re-releases. To ensure consistency select titles that have sequel contents (whether it's a second series or a second film) will keep the DVD option for now.
The October 2018 release slate features the following:
- 1 limited edition releases
- 3 dubbed releases
- 3 Blu-ray only releases
- 1 DVD only release
Also included in this month's release slate is GARO: MAKAI SENKYU collection 2 on Blu-ray for $39.98 due for 9th October.

Grav's Thoughts on the Line-Up:
So for the month of September we have a couple titles.
Catalogue:
Monochrome Factor
Summer 2017:
Hitorijime My Hero
Made in Abyss
Winter 2018:
The Seven Heavenly Virtues
For October Sentai Filmworks have decided to dub the remaining two titles left from the Summer 2017 season and also dub the spin-off to Seven Mortal Sins that aired last Winter (quite a fast turnaround).
Made in Abyss, one of the biggest shows of 2017 is getting the limited edition treatment to no one's surprise, though I am disappointed that it is once again fairly overpriced. The contents are mostly little pieces that I'm sure hardcore fans of the series will appreciate but there's honestly nothing there that will make me want to spend that much on it to be honest. It doesn't even have the original soundtrack which was considered one of the biggest highlights of the series.
I've got nothing to say for Hitorijime My Hero but at least it was successful enough to warrant an English dub at the very least. And The Seven Heavenly Virtues is going to be an interesting one given it's an short series but should also be uncensored, plus it has OVAs included so that's more ecchi content for the community.
Maiden Japan are also providing another catalogue release with the 2008 series Monochrome Factor. Subtitled only but includes all 24 episodes of the show.
And that is pretty much it, another light slate but that's all of the Summer 2017 titles now sorted. There are still some titles left prior to that season like Haikyu!! Third Season and Sagrada Reset at least, but starting next month we'll be diving straight into the Autumn 2017 season so expect some big hitters from that season to start coming out.
