Industry News: Discotek Media September 2018 Release Slate

Discotek brings out more SD on Blu-ray as well as more DVD versions of classic re-releases.

This post will also cover the announcements with release dates set for September 2018.


As mentioned in the previous release slate posts, Discotek will be changing their model slightly by releasing older long-running shows only available in standard definition on Blu-ray from here on, thanks to feedback on their social media. That means if an anime ran for 2-cours or more then it's on SD on BD rather than DVD.

Anywho here's the list of anime coming out on 25th September:

Suggested Retail Price: $24.95
