"The End" could obviously turn around if Media Blasters gets their asses in gear, what kind of bullshit is this? Delaying what little releases they have?

Quote:
Robert's Anime Corner Store reported in its weekly e-mail newsletter on Friday that Media Blasters has put two forthcoming releases on indefinite hold.

The two titles include Bakuman. (Second Draft) DVD Collection #2, and Ikki Tousen: Great Guardians Complete DVD Boxed Set (containing episodes 1-12). The Bakuman. release was to have included episodes 8-13 on two discs, and had an original release date of February 29. The Ikki Tousen box was originally slated to be released on March 31. No new release dates for the two series have been set.

Media Blasters laid off a majority of its staff, including its production department, in early January.


Right after laying off over 60% of their staff this happens. I really hope they turn this around and release Bakuman, or at least have Viz Media rescue it from them. What do you think this is hinting to if anything? As I titled, Media Blasters slow death?

It's kind of sad to see them slowly dying as they've released all kind of good shows throught the years.

Sorry, I don't know what happened but this post was a mirror of mine right before it. I'm not sure how that happened as I only posted a reply once. :question:
