POPOTAN COMPLETE COLLECTION ON SALE TODAY
Also First Little Snow Fairy Sugar Collection

HOUSTON, October 27, 2009 – Section23 Films, America's fastest-growing anime distributor, is pleased to announce that the Sentai Filmworks DVD release of Popotan goes on sale today, as does the first of two sets collecting A Little Snow Fairy Sugar, also from Sentai.

Popotan – The Complete Collection contains all 12 episodes that make up this “touching story with a hint of mystery” (Anime News Network). A heartfelt story that delivers more than its fair share of fanservice, Popotan is the story of three sisters journeying through time and space in search of the one man who can answer the riddle of their existence. The girls make many new friends along the way, always leaving a smile in their wake. Every episode is a new adventure in this fun, sexy frolic.

SYNOPSIS: Get ready for a wild and sexy ride unlike anything you've ever experienced before, as beautiful sisters Ai, Mai, Mii, their android maid Mea and slippery pet ferret Unagi, make an amazing journey together through time and space without ever leaving their beloved mansion behind! Following the clues of the strange dandelion-like “Popotan,” the girls are theoretically seeking the person who has the answers to their most personal questions, but they seem to have more than enough time to take side trips, meet new friends, visit hot springs and occasionally operate the Xmas shop they keep in the house along the way! Yet, the girls' ultimate destiny holds more than a few surprises of its own, and not every moment is filled with hilarity, as moving through time means having to leave friends behind as well. Tears of laughter, sadness and joy punctuate one of the most temporally unique adventures ever animated in Popotan – The Complete Collection!

Next up from Sentai Filmworks is Little Snow Fairy Sugar Collection 1, containing the first 13 episodes of the “well-written show for children that adults can enjoy just as much” (Anime News Network). Sugar, an apprentice Snow Fairy, and her friends Salt and Pepper need to find the magical ‘twinkles’ before they can become full-fledged Season Fairies. The only problem is that none of them have any idea what a twinkle is! Along with their lone human friend Saga, these fairy friends search for twinkles and try to perfect their magic.

SYNOPSIS: She never believed in fairies, but unfortunately, THEY believe in HER! When studious and organized young Saga offers a waffle to a small hungry creature in a fluffy outfit, she unknowingly takes the first step in reducing her carefully structured world to complete and total ruin! Because the “creature” isn't a creature at all; she's Sugar, an apprentice fairy sent to Earth to find a “twinkle” as part of her test to become a full-fledged season fairy! Unfortunately, neither Sugar nor her two companion fairies, Salt and Pepper, have the slightest idea what a “twinkle” is, but that doesn't stop them from moving in with the extremely unusual girl who can somehow see fairies! Unfortunately, given that no one else can see the fairies, Saga's friends can't understand her strange new behavior, and as more and more season fairies keep arriving, Saga's bemusement turns into desperation. What is a twinkle, how can Saga help the fairies find one and can she do it before someone takes her to the funny farm? The answers will surprise you in the hilarious first collection of A Little Snow Fairy Sugar!
