There was some misinformation included in last month’sschedule, that being Fate/Zero Part 1 release was DVD only and the Blu-Raycounterparts are this month, so sorry to those out there who were disappointed.This month again comes with some confusion, this time over the Blue ExorcistMovie, other websites list the Blu-Ray version as Double Play but according toamazon and the Manga Entertainment website this does not seem to be the case,so bare that in mind when ordering but hopefully the issue will be cleared upbefore release date.
Stay tuned for more releases next month and make sure to checkout the latest manga release schedule which will be up in a few days. We do allthe hard work for you so make sure you have enough cash to keep up!
* (Blu-Ray/DVD) means released separately on both formats,although in same cases they may be release as a combo pack in which case thatwill be mark with (Blu-Ray Double Play).
