FUNimation to release Samurai Champloo, Basilisk, Gunslinger Girl & Witchblade on US Blu-ray Disc
The end of the year could become pretty expensive for anime lovers equipped with a Region A capable Blu-ray Disc player. During the weekend several Blu-ray Disc collections of anime series from FUNimation have appeared on Amazon.com, starting with Witchblade on November 3rd. With several bust sizes smaller but not less effective, the first season of Gunslinger Girl will be released on December 1st, only a few weeks after the Japanese collection.
On December 15th, Shinichiro Watanabe’s Samurai Champloo and the ninjatized Romeo & Juliet adaptation Basilisk will hit the US shelves without having been announced in Japan.
Thanks to Asian Blu-ray Guide contributor r3d-3agl3 for the heads up!

PlanetEs wäre auch nett.
Interessanterweise ist die BD bei den oben genannten sogar günstiger als die DVD Veröffentlichung.
Samurai 7 gibt es mittlerweile auch schon in BD Fassung.

Jetzt bräuchte ich eigentlich nur noch einen BluRay Player, wobei ohne Region Free eigentlich gar nichts geht, das müsste schon sein und dann auch für DVDs.
