Street Date: 8/3/2010 Format: DVD SRP: $59.98 When Hiro Hiyorimi tries to save a beautiful young woman from certain death, he ends up a dead hero himself! However, since the drop dead girl is Hime, daughter of the King of the Monsters, his "reward" is to come back as a not quite living soldier in her honor guard of horror! That means helping fight off the army of supernatural monstrosities Hime`s siblings are unleashing against her in hopes of moving up the ladder of succession; and if facing off with vampires and zombies isn`t bad enough, how can anyone be prepared for the REALLY weird ones like were-sharks, pandas and killer dumplings? This sure as hell isn`t the afterlife Hiro was hoping for, but the really sad part is that Hime is the good girl in all of this… or at least as close to good as you can come when you`re on the wrong side of the gates of hell! Get ready for the wildest animation about reanimation ever in PRINCESS RESURRECTION COMPLETE COLLECTION!

SHIGOFUMI COMPLETE COLLECTION Published by: Sentai Filmworks Distributed by: Section23 Films Run Time: 325 min. Street Date: 8/17/2010 Format: DVD SRP: $49.98 Are some secrets best kept with the dead? For most Shigofumi Mail Carriers, charged with delivering messages from the recently departed to those left behind, the question is purely rhetorical as most Carriers are dead themselves and past the point of caring about the still breathing. The solemn girl known as Fumika, however, is all too aware of the mortal perspective, for she is still aging: an indicator that she is somehow, mysteriously, still alive. Yet, neither Fumika`s own personal tragedy nor the knowledge that her mail may be a mixed blessing at best will stay her grim determination to make her morbid rounds. Though the postal scales of fate may be eternally shifted, Fumika will make sure each posthumous posting from the ultimate dead letter office reaches its intended target, even when there`s deadly postage due! Neither rain nor sleet nor even death will stop the messages from beyond from coming in SHIGOFUMI COMPLETE COLLECTION!
