Anime fans will eat well with MVM this Spring - we have a bravurea set of releases hitting shelves in the coming months, here's some of the highlights.
Vermeil in Gold - Collector's Edition (March 16th)
Magic student Alto Goldfield isn’t having much luck at summoning, but it’s required to advance to the next grade. Then he chances upon an old grimoire and summons a lot more than he anticipated - a very beautiful and naked demon girl named Vermeil! The good news: she’s willing to become his familiar! Unfortunately, she also wants to “bond” in another way, live off his mana, and isn’t crazy about wearing clothes. This is probably going to get awkward, but in a school where the bullies have dragons, could it hurt to have a familiar who can kick a dragons tail? Welcome to Demon Keeping 101!

Kizumonogatari - Koyomi Vamp - Collect's Edition (April 13th)
The prequel film to the critically acclaimed BAKEMONOGATARI finally arrives on Blu-ray! Contains a 12-page booklet housed in a rigid artbox.
The MONOGATARI series, based on NISIOISIN’s popular novels, has come to life in anime form with the help of production company SHAFT.
The Kizumonogatari trilogy made its big screen theatrical debut from 2016 to 2017. The series continues to be a hot topic of discussion among fans of the series.
Eight years have passed since then….
The original three parts have been restructured to form a new single feature-length film, KIZUMONOGATARI -Koyomi Vamp-. Tatsuya Oishi returns to his role as director from the original films. The film’s unique aesthetic is fully on display, along with the strikingly vivid world found in the story.
All parts of the original films have been restructured, including the editing, sound, and music. The original voice actors have also come back to record new lines. Koyomi Vamp is not a feature film that has been simply edited together; it has been reborn as a new iteration of KIZUMONOGATARI right before us. Be shocked at how beautiful and different it is!
