Round 3 of Discotek's latest Deep Dive additions are now available this month. As a reminder, the titles are in SRP but in return you do get points on the MediaOCD Store ($1 for every 10 points). The previous batch are all still available but I recommend ordering some sooner than later if...

I generally sort them once Crunchyroll reveals their slate. Based on my notes, Rooster Fighter aired early (but is part of Spring season) while Steel Ball Run is considered a Winter title.
