On Monday March 10, MVM will release the 12-part series Drifting Dragons on Blu-ray. Kodansha Comics releases the source manga digitally and in print, and it describes the series:

"The draking vessel Quin Zaza soars through the skies, hunting dragons that hide in the clouds. A single big catch means full coffers and all the meat they can eat, while failure means an empty wallet and an even emptier stomach. Join us as we log the crew's grand adventures, chasing dreams of the sky, dragons, and gourmet cooking."

Tadahiro Yoshihira directed the anime at Polygon Pictures, and Makoto Uezu both wrote and oversaw the series scripts. Yoh Kamiyama performed the opening theme song "Gunjō" (Ultramarine). Four-member female rock band Red Park (Akai Kōen) performed the ending theme song "Zettai Reido" (Absolute Zero).

Kuwabara launched the manga in Kodansha's Good! Afternoon magazine in June 2016, and Kodansha published the manga's seventh compiled volume on November 7.

Crunchyroll will release the first 12-part season of A Returner's Magic Should Be Special on Blu-ray. Yen Press is releasing the series in English and it describes the story:

"In a time when the Shadow World has taken over and most of humanity is wiped out, a party of six heroes strives and fails to save the world… But magician Desir Herman is given a second chance when he opens his eyes and finds that he's gone back thirteen years in the past! It's now up to him to gather his party once more and stop the greatest catastrophe in human history."

Taishi Kawaguchi directed the anime at Arvo Animation. Takamitsu Kouno (She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man, Absolute Duo, We Without Wings - Under the Innocent Sky) wrote and supervised the scripts for the anime. Hiromi Katō (Violinist of Hamelin, Kobato., Irina: The Vampire Cosmonaut) designed the characters. Eiji Iwase was the art director, and Masahiro Kama was credited for art assistance. Kazushige Kanehira, Akihiro Hirasawa, Yasuhiro Okumura, and Tomoyasu Fujise were credited for art design. Kenta Higashiohji (Pole Princess!!) composed the music.

FLOW performed the anime's opening theme song "Get Back." Singer Momosumomosu performed the ending theme song "6 o Naderu" (Stroke the 6).

Crunchyroll will also release One Piece: Collection 36 on both Blu-ray and DVD, carrying episodes 867 to 891 of the series. The volume is described as follows:

"Luffy's new Gear Four form outpaces Katakuri, but when he and Sanji are caught in a trap, the Vinsmokes swoop in for a redemptive rescue. After Big Mom's cake calms her down, the Straw Hat Crew reunites - with Oven's ship in hot pursuit! Elsewhere, news of Luffy's Fifth Emperor status spreads, the Revolutionary Army plans a war against the World Nobles, and Sabo plots to free the captive Kuma."
