Sword Art Online comes to Toonami and DVD

Region 1 Sword Art Online DVD/Blu-ray Details Revealed


A few days ago the official U.S. Sword Art Online website announced Region 1 releases of the DVD/Blu-Ray later in August. The DVD and Blu-ray's will be released in 4 sets the first set in August, the second set in September, etc. The price for the DVD is around $40 while the price for the Blu-ray is $90. Now the DVD will not have many special features but the Blu-Ray's will. There was a announcement at Anime Boston about SAO coming to Toonami in August of this year. The announcement was made by Aniplex of America who licensed dubs for Madoka Magica, and Blue Exorcist.

Yes, Yes, Yes! (Daniel Bryant reference sorry about that). I am excited for this, I made semi right prediction. Okay, so it was really a prediction but a hypothesis. So know the U.S. not only gets DVD/Blu-rays but we also get a new show on Toonami! How awesome is that! My only gripe is that the DVD has now special features and taking into consideration the price of the Blu-Ray's is it worth it. It might be. I really like this series although I don't really like that second half I can tolerate it. I do have another concern about the English dub. I'm hoping its really good and they that they made it just as good or better than the subs. I won't purchase probably until it appears on Toonami, because I would like to hear the English dub before I buy it.
