All of Manga Entertainment’s UK new announcements were made on Saturday, during their own panel, however MVM and Anime Limited announced their new titles via the traditional industry panel on Sunday and finally to top it all off Anime Limited resorted to announcing a slew of new titles via their website and social media channels, so as you can see announcements of new releases have been thick, fast and all over the place during the weeked.

In addition to the content listed above, most of which will see a UK release by the end of the year, Manga UK shared more details surrounding the upcoming UK DVD & Blu-ray release of Attack on Titan (including an English Dubbed Clip) and their UK Exclusive Blu-ray steelbook release of Ghost in The Shell, both of which will be released in September. MVM Entertainment also confirmed that Bodacious Space Pirates IS coming to Blu-ray as a complete series boxset, a fact which we pointed out in Zavvi’s listings earlier in the month.

It’s expected that each of the above titles, excluding One Piece – Collection 9 to 12 and Hellsing Ultimate, will be released later this year but more ‘confirmed’ release details will be revealed in the coming months.
