SEGA of Japan have released a new batch of commercials for their upcoming DVD release for their TV anime Hi-sCool! Seha Girls, which features the SEGA Hard Girls characters Dreamcast, Saturn and Mega Drive. The new batch of commercials also includes other SEGA Hard Girls such as Master System, SEGA Mark III, Robo Pitcher and Mega Drive 2. Aside from the 13 episodes of the anime that were aired on TV, the Japanese DVD release will include a new episode as well which takes place during a Sports Festival. In addition, the DVD release will include 3D character models (chibi and swimsuit versions) of the SeHa Girls which can be used in the program MikuMikuDance, a free animation program. The DVD will be released on November 3 in Japan. Curiously, it doesn’t seem like there will be a Blu-Ray release in Japan.

Sentai Filmworks Re-Releasing Sakura Wars TV

Sentai Filmworks Re-Releasing Sakura Wars TV as Part of the Sentai Selects Series

Leave a reply

Earlier this year, Sentai Filmworks announced their new Sentai Selects series. The purpose of the series is to offer a wide range of anime that have withstood the test of time to remain popular and memorable works of their genre, at a cheaper MSRP price. More recently, Sentai Filmworks announced that they will be releasing Sakura Wars TV: Complete Collection as part of the Sentai Selects series on DVD.

Rightstuf lists the DVD set for an April 5th, 2016 release. The set will normally sell for $29.98, but Rightstuf is currently selling it for $19.49. It comes with a new cover and possibly a new keep case (originally, the case was thicker and the discs were stacked). Other than that there are no new special features and the series will still be on 4 discs. The boxart shown in the featured image is not final.

For those in the EU, the DVD set is also available via Archonia (keep in mind this is still a US import version). Below you can find an excerpt from the official press release with more details about the release.

The original Sentai Filmworks edition of the anime is out of print according to Rightstuf, so it’s a good sign that Sentai is putting the Sakura Wars license to good use. Perhaps one day we may even see the earlier OVA re-released.
