While I'm glad Konosuba will finally get a home video release, I'm scared it'll get the same treatment that Strike the Blood has. No sequels and non-existent communication.

I am definitely getting Konosuba. I’ve been waiting forever for a physical release.

Compared to Konosuba, Strike the Blood is a niche title that probably didn't sell well for Discotek. I expect the rest of Konosuba to be released on BD because it is a well liked and more popular franchise.

I was thinking about how She and Her Cat: Everything Flows never got released in America yesterday. I lost one of my cats earlier this week and he was a cat my family had for a long time and like Daru, he died of old age. I’ve been thinking about this anime recently because of this. Definitely going to buy this on Blu-ray when I have the chance.

You could be right about Strike the Blood. Season 1 is a pure Crunchyroll license with Discotek distributing it, however Crunchyroll didn't even bother to get the sequel OVA series', so Discotek could license them alone, ala Crunchyroll having Season 1 of Free! and Funimation having the rest, but I don't think Discotek will do so, to be honest.

Given All the Anime in the UK has already announced plans to release Konosuba season 2 on bluray, It's almost a given Discotek will release season 2 and the movie on bluray, hopefully within the year. What I'm more disappointed in is that Konosuba won't be receiving a collector's edition, whereas it seems likely the UK will get one.

YES!! I've been waiting forever for Poco's Udon World! It was such a sweet and funny story with many emotional parts.
