That was my reaction as well. Unless it's a KAZE release.
Those who like Marvel Knights, 101 anime is Blu-ray versions and they came out of nowhere:
Astonishing X-Men: Dangerous
Astonishing X-Men: Gifted
Astonishing X-Men: Torn
Astonishing X-Men: Unstoppable
Black Panther
Iron Man: Extremis
Marvel Knights Collection - Includes all 8 Marvel Knights released thus far
Spider-Woman: Agent of S.W.O.R.D.
Thor And Loki: Blood Brothers
Didn't like their approach anyway.

Agreed, I've been waiting for them to go away but people seem to keep bringing it back. God damn Bleach.

I believe the reason AniplexUSA aren't doing a BD release is because the JP BD's only finished their release run about a month ago.Ath said:
Unfortunately I wouldn't be surprised if this is a Kaze release, especially considering they have released it in FR and had it on Anime on Delay.
I have high expectations for Magi and I would like to see what the dub is like before watching it, but I'll probably hold out in hope that Aniplex do a BD release though.
I may pick this up depending on whether Aniplex announce a BD or not.

Hmmm good point. If it were Kaze, that could explain the lack of notice for this too.
I really liked what I read of Magi in manga form, but I never got beyond the first few eps of the anime. I hear the anime got Hiroyuki Yoshino'd by the end of the first season, but I'd like to give it another bash with less Yuuki Kaji.

It IS a good pickup though regardless.
The Magi manga seemed to be selling ridiculously well at the MCM expo, to the point that when I finally decided to buy a copy I couldn't find a single volume.
If the BD is a Kaze release though I'll be avoiding it like the plague.

Kobato and Maria were already released a few months back, it's Sena and Yozora this time round (though they could always do a 2nd release of Kobato and Maria)
The Sena one is nice, not sure I like Yozora with the short hair.
According to this press release, Viz Media Europe have the license so looks like it could be a Kaze release.Ario said:

So we can expect to see it released in 2025 if we're lucky.

Of course it's Khazi. That zombie keeps on twitching. Amazon lists the DVD as a 3 disc set which is a tell-tale sign for them (ie Penguindrum and Nura). On the bright side, Magi isn't a title with copious Japanese on screen text that needs translating, so subtitles shouldn't be that screwy. But I bet they find some way to screw it up. Putting it on BD 25s would be my guess. I had a look at my check discs, and it looks as if Khazi have released one title on a BD 50 (The Shinkai movie) and that's it. Cheapskates!
EDIT: Manga have confirmed it's being released although not the label.
EDIT AGAIN: Yup Khazi!

Kaze confirmed. Guess I'll wait for Aniplex to release it on BD.

Only two weeks? Surely you mean a month.

It is definitely Kaze since it is listed on Amazon under one of their EANs rather than Manga's.
