Anime: Koutetsu Sangokushi 鋼鉄三国志

Kotetsu Sangokushi / AnimationOk… seems like there is a non-broadcast episode 26 in the final DVD release (26/03/2008)!

Title: 第26話「深紅の魂、生ける志士どもを走らす」

The original run was 25 episodes… gaaah… what a way to entice buyers/collectors… the producers pulled the same stunt for Darker than Black too (-_- ||) sheesh~ Since I’m already broke from collecting DtB, etc… and I doubt Koutetsu Sangokushi will be licensed anytime soon… Hopefully the subs surface real quickly!

Seirei no Moribito R1 DVD Seirei no Moribito, Guardian of the Spirit (精霊の守り人) is licensed by Media Blasters and the R1 DVD is now available for order! Time flies by scarily fast!

Release date: November 2008.

This is definitely on my wishlist along with other R1 releases such as Darker than Black and Ouran High School Host Club just to mention a few… *grits teeth* Saving and holding out for the Christmas sale!

This series has a total of 26 episodes and the upcoming R1 release has 7 episodes on 2 DVDs (US$37.99) Kinda strange but it is at least 4 times cheaper than the R2 release which contains only 2 episodes per DVD (5800yen w/o tax). Considering this, I’m not expecting too great a package in terms of booklets or extras when it ships.
