Media Blasters Delays Release of Rio: Rainbow Gate into 2014

We finally got an official update from Media Blaster's distributor on the DVD release of Rio: Rainbow Gate. Looks like they are going to have to push it into 2014:

"Rio: Rainbow Gate was delayed due to manufacturing...originally a Sept street.  The title will be moved to '14 street tbd...but probably in 1st qtr."

So just FYI everyone, we're looking at an early 2014 release date now - probably sometime in the 1st quarter - to be announced at a later date. If any of you have a copy on pre-order with us and want to make a change in that order, just drop us a line.

Translation: it's not worth paying "christmas season" replication costs?

More than likely it's a cash flow problem.

Suddenly, requesting that Media Blasters reconsider releasing Squid Girl season 2 on Blu-Ray doesn't seem like such a good idea after all. I figured that a lighter release schedule would mean fewer delays, but I guess with fewer employees around, I should've known better...

Now we're beyond the pseudo-release date of Yamibo too.

Haven't heard a thing concrete about Yamibo. If anyone up there knows they aren't sayin. We might not get anything else out of MB this year.
