We flaked on it last week, but here's some good news to get you pumped for the weekend...

SHIKI

Some crafty folk somehow predicted this a couple of weeks ago, but here it is from the official channel: we're releasing Part 1 of Shiki in August.

Looking for a sinister series ala Higurashi? This one will satiate your rural horror itch. More twisted than a broken slinky, Shiki is set to blow this year's dual-language anime releases into the ether. Yes, it'll have a dub. We've managed to secure this one on Blu-ray, too. Don't ask us how, it just happened! Sometimes what you don't know is for your own good.  Stay tuned...

THERMAE ROMAE

Another in our noitaminA range, this short historical comedy series comes with extra weird-sauce. A time travelling Roman architect stuck for ideas ends up in a modern-day Japanese bath-house and learns a lot about male hygiene. Better believe it!

Totally obscure and oddball in practically every sense, Thermae Romae is another exclusive Region 4-only noitaminA release from Siren and will be released along with a slew of extras in July.

SUPANOVA

It begins again for another year. Keep an eye out for us at Supanova in Melbourne this weekend and sweating it out for the first time on the Gold Coast next weekend. Drop by our booth and say hi!
