Releases of the week - 06/22/09 photo

Another week, another set of releases for you to be able to...uh, "release" your love for some anime and manga. One of such titles, is Colorful, is a collection of loosely-related short vignettes featuring guys being idiots over the sight of cleavage and panties.

For something a bit different to add to your collection, here is Romeo X Juliet, which is a loosely-based, anime take on the Shakespearean play featuring some costume-clad vigilantes. Last up is Amefurashi, from the creator of Venus Versus Virus and Haridama Cram School, which looks cute.

Hit the jump for the rest of this week's new releases!

Ha ha, wow. I remember watching Colorful a few years ago on YouTube. What a strange, perverted anime. Heck, each episode wasn't even 10 minutes long (around 6-ish, I think).

R X J FTW!

Definite thumbs-up for Romeo x Juliet.

Origin Blu-ray for me, absolutely. I'll wait on RxJ. On the manga side, AMG & Wallflower, (and Negima eventually).

 
kamanashi

RxJ and Origins for me. Nothing else really that I want.

Wait, is that just a re-release of colorful?

Yeah, it's a re-release.

RxJ for me, along with Darker than Black.
 
The Amazing Shenazin

Colorful is hilarious

 
2 owls? I'm there!

My husband just had a heart attack when I asked him, "Hey, remember colourful?"
Watched it on Scuzz (metal music channel) bizarrely enough a few years ago.

(By the way, couldn't bring myself to leave the 'U' out of colourful.)
