and Yuu have been best friends forever and they've always sat next to

learn that the new seating plan has them on opposite sides of the
classroom! So, since everyone knows that long distance relationships
won't work unless the parties involved put extra effort into it, they
decide they need to do something extra special to permanently seal their
friendship. However, deciding to kiss each other awakens a whole new
level of feelings, and it doesn't help that some of their classmates
seem to be 'involved" in similar circumstances. So what's a girl to do
when her best girl friend suddenly seems more like a girlfriend? It's a
life lesson that the school curriculum isn't normally prepared to
teach, except maybe in French class, and our two young heroines are
about to get a private education you'll never forget! Discover the
truth about the birds and the... er… birds, as two young ladies learn to
deal with the pros and cons of intramural osculation in SAKURA TRICK!

brother Hibito and another astronaut on the lunar surface. As Hibito
fights to keep his injured companion alive, Mutta must join a team of
scientists and fellow astronauts as they struggle to find a way to
locate and save their friends before their critical oxygen reserves run

SYNOPSIS: Things
are looking grim for Earth's defenders. Although Daichi and Teppai have
managed to slow or stop most of the Planetary Gear's direct attacks so
far using their Impacters and Livlasters, there's no denying that the
numbers are slowly turning against them. Not only have their opponents
managed to recruit a half dozen of the Designer Children, but now new
cracks are forming in the Midsummer's Knights' own alliance. During a
brief break at the seaside, Hana's confusion over her own nature and her
relationship with Daichi comes to a head, leading to an unexpected
revelation. But as stunned as Daichi might be, it's nothing compared to
the shock that Kube is about to receive at the hands of his own allies.
Twists, betrayals and amazing new powers are about to be unleashed, a
new Livlaster joins the Knights, and Setsuna finally comes out of
seclusion to let loose her own brand of mayhem as the war for Earth's
Orgone energy builds to the inevitable climax. It's anyone's guess as to
who'll come out on top as the final battle for our planet explodes in
the world-shattering second collection of CAPTAIN EARTH!

In the wake of the blistering practice match against the Nekoma High
School team, the Karasuno High School volleyball squad digs in and vows
to bring their game up another level. Prior to the arrival of the new
freshmen, the general belief was that Karasuno's day in the sun was
over, but while the ongoing rivalry between Hinata and Kageyama has
inspired everyone to push themselves even further, there's still a lot
of friction that's ultimately slowing down their game. It's not until
the announcement of the brackets for the Inter-School tourney are
announced that the reality of what they are attempting to do finally
takes hold. As talented as each of the team members may be
individually, they have no chance of winning unless they can finally
come together as a seamless unit. Can Hinata and Kageyama put their
battle for dominance on hold long enough to take on the overwhelming
brilliance of the Aoba Johsai squad? The aces are high and the kills
are merciless as Karasuno explodes off the court in the second
thundering collection of HAIKYU!!

Format: DVD
Language: Japanese with English Subtitles
SRP: $49.98
SYNOPSIS:
Some say a home is where your heart is. Others say that a home is
where you send people whose brains aren't functioning quite properly.
So, when Kazunari Usa's parents send him to the Kawai Boarding House
while they work abroad, it may take a while to figure out whether this
is really his new home, let alone what kind of home it is. On the one
hand, his new roommate is a pervert and a masochist who peeps at girls'
schools, while his new landlady thinks leaving a variety of weapons
lying around the girl's area is a proper form of feminine protection.
And when it comes to the trouble-making college girl and the perpetually
grumpy working woman… well, let's just say that those two have some
serious issues to work out. On the other hand, Kawai is also home to
Ritsu Kawai, who stole Usa's heart from the first second he saw her on
his first day at his new high school. And that alone may just make
living in this strange new house worth every second it takes to learn
the complex rules of The Kawai Complex Guide to Manors & Hostel
Behavior!

Distributed by: Section23 Films
Run Time: 1300 min.
Street Date: 8/18/2015
Format: DVD, BD
Language: Japanese with English Subtitles
SRP: $79.98, $99.98
SYNOPSIS:
Could Hayate Ayasaki's life get any unluckier? As if it wasn't bad
enough that he's had to work constantly in order to support his
good-for-nothing parents, now he's lost his job for being underage and
Mom and Pop have cashed in their cash cow by selling him to the Yakuza.
For Christmas! Desperate to pay off the 156,804,000 yen debt before
he's converted into black market organ parts, Hayate strikes on the idea
of kidnapping oddball heiress Nagi Sanzenin. Unbelievably, however,
even that goes wrong and not only does he end up not kidnapping her, he
rescues her from other kidnappers. (Apparently this happens to her all
the time.) But maybe, just maybe, there might be a tiny, dim light at
the end of the very dark tunnel of Hayate's existence, and the skills
that Hayate's had to develop to stay alive will pay off. Because Nagi
needs a butler/bodyguard and Hayate could just fit the bill. Assuming
he can survive the on-the-job training, of course. Fate can be a harsh
mistress, but Hayate may have just signed up with an even harsher one
as the epic comedy series begins in HAYATE THE COMBAT BUTLER!

SYNOPSIS: Yui
Kusanagi isn't sure what to do after high school, but when Zeus decides
that the Gods have lost touch with the mortal world, he stages a bit of
divine intervention and places Yui on the path to education. Okay,
it's more like he drops her into a mysterious garden and tasks her with
teaching eight moody and extremely hot young Gods about life, humanity
and love. Or else. That's quite a burden for any mortal girl,
especially when the gorgeous Godly gaggle are eight heavy hitters from
Greek, Norse, Egyptian and Japanese mythology: Appollon, Hades,
Dionysus, Thor, Loki, Balder, Thoth, Anubis, Susanoo, and Tsukiyomi!
But while they're all afflicted with the angst and capricious whims one
might expect from such immortal archetypes, and while their "schooling"
is further hampered as the mysterious world they're all trapped in keeps
changing unexpectedly, Yui's going to give this her all. Why? Maybe
because she's the only girl they're going to see in at least a year and
did we mention that they're all totally babe-a-licious? Prepare to say
O.M.G. with multiple Os and eight different Gs as higher education hits
the highest plane in KAMIGAMI NO ASOBI!

Togashi thought he had problems dealing with one delusional girlfriend
in the person of Rikka Takanashi, but now things are about to go totally
insane as his FORMER "one true soul mate" from when he was a chuuni
himself returns with a vengeance! So how bad is Satone Shichimiya's
re-entry into Togashi's chuni-verse likely to be? Let's just say that
she's so epically off the deep end of the chuni-scale that she prefers
to use the name Sophia Ring SP Saturn VII and that she'll joyfully tear
Togashi's real world to pieces in order to get him back in her imaginary
one! Some girls just want to have fun and some want to break down the
walls between their boyfriends and themselves. But when a girl's idea
of fun is breaking down the wall between their presumed boyfriend and
reality, retreating into a fantasy world might just be Togashi's best
option. Especially since Satone knows where ALL the skeletons from his
past are buried. Toss Rikka's equally delusional friend Sanae into the
mix and girl-crazy takes on a whole new meaning in LOVE, CHUNIBYO &
OTHER DELUSIONS - HEART THROB!

10,000 years, Count Magnus Lee has walked the night, sustained by an
unholy thirst for blood and an unending lust for human women. But when
he tastes the sweet nectar running through Doris Lang's veins, the Count
knows he has found more than his next meal: this is the woman he
intends to claim as his next vampire bride. As the daughter of a
werewolf hunter, however, Doris Lang is less than willing to step into
the thrall of evil. And if she is unable to defend herself from the
Count's nightmarish powers, she is fortunate enough to have found
someone who can: the Vampire Hunter known as D. But D is no ordinary
man, and signing up for his protection may carry a price of its own.
Driven by the art of acclaimed designer Yoshitaka Amano (FINAL FANTASY I
- VI, the Hugo nominated Neil Gaiman's SANDMAN-THE DREAM HUNTERS), this
is the epic animated fantasy that spawned multiple sequels and helped
launch the anime revolution. Remastered in high-definition from the
original elements and upgraded audio tracks, it's the legendary classic
as you've never seen it before in VAMPIRE HUNTER D!
