Yeah, watched the first episode last night, it's not for me. Too cutesy. Give me some romantic drama, and not comedy, and I'd eat it up. Scum's Wish, Domestic Girlfriend, Just Because, Lull in the Sea, stuff like that. 👍

Interesting that Siren Visual lost the rights. Then again, Siren Visual is pretty much dead.

When Siren Visual released the BD back when they had the rights, did they use Funimation's masters, use Manga's masters (even though Manga released their release a month later), or create their own from scratch?

And I'm guessing the future for Sailor Moon Sailor Stars Part 2 remains uncertain.

EDIT: I completely forgot about DanMachi Season 1's listing. In fact, I even forgot that it was released before by Hanabee (I found out through Grav's Twitter through a retweet).

Siren used the Funimation masters. It makes sense they would re-release it because Siren's release was sublicensed, so having Funi release it directly makes more sense.

As for Danmachi, it's less of a surprise to me since Madman added the series on AnimeLab and released the film here.
