That's like asking why Bikini Warriors was dubbed and released. Yes, there are people who enjoyed both of them and bought/will buy them. And the fact that there shorts is a plus: quick, in and out...and then on to the next show.

I asked Sentai about this on Twitter. They told me that it is only being sold in the bundle and only through their online store. There will be no standard edition released, and once the bundles sell out, they're gone.

Wow........Sentai is releasing a limited run of this dub....... unless it'll be posted on hiDive later, then cool. But wow. Imagine Bikini Warriors being a limited bundle release, or any other short ova/ona episode series. This idea just makes me cringe so hard that I actually want it. The dub clip sounds so campy yet somewhat in sync.

Onigiri is not just a show that I don't remember. It's a show I never even knew existed even when it was airing. That's how unpopular it was. I can only imagine this is one of those really low effort Sentai dubs.

I wouldn't be surprised if it took months for even the tiny quantity they have to sell out.

I downloaded and played the game this was based off of years ago, it was free.

After four hours I deleted it and went back to Dragon Age.
