posted on 2008-12-17 08:34 EST
The ICv2 retail news source reports that Warner Home Video has agreed to distribute Viz Media's DVD releases from April 1 onward. That includes both back catalog titles such as Death Note and Inuyasha, and new titles such as April 7's Naruto Uncut Box Set 13 and Hunter x Hunter Box Set, Volume 2. The agreement should expand the reach of Viz Media's anime titles.
Viz Media also announced that it has added the first three seasons of uncut Naruto, three story arcs (or 63 episodes) of Bleach, and all 37 episodes of Death Note to the Canadian version of Apple's online iTunes Store. The first episodes of each English-dubbed series are free for downloading until January 6.
The Publishers Weekly trade magazine reports that the publisher Go! Comi will be releasing its manga and other works through a new distributor, PGW, in North America. Go! Comi CEO David Wise says that PGW will help expand sales in traditional bookstores.

Thermae Romae GN 2With its large size, glossy pages, and unusual subject matter, Thermae Romae is certainly one of the best looking manga on the market, to say nothing of one of the more interesting.

La Corda d'Oro GN 17For reverse harem fans or even those leery of the genre, La Corda d'Oro has consistently been an enjoyable story about both music and romance, and maybe even the romance of music. If its ending is not as conclusive as one might have wished, it is still a good one.
Sleeping Moon GN 1If you're looking for hardcore yaoi romance, this is not the series for you, but if you enjoy a supernatural tale with ominous overtones and the possibility of more serious romance in the next volume, give Sleeping Moon a chance.
Toriko GN 16As with most Toriko volumes, this is a book to gulped down rather than savored.
If you always thought about picking this title up but never got around to it then this is the version that you want. Newcomers will find a fun couple of fantasy adventure hours that will consistently entertain without straining your brain.
With this omnibus, we find ourselves caring a lot more about what happens, not just in terms of the story, but to the characters as well.
Tragicomedy is not unknown in the manga realm, and Sankarea just may be a very good entry into that genre, and this introductory volume offers us sadness, hope, and humor with a dollop of fanservice to top it off.
