YST complete collection YST OVA Collection

News is out that Discotek Media has secured the rights to Yoroiden Samurai Troopers.

The TV series will be released as a collection, but only the Japanese version will be available at this time. Via their Facebook page, “This will be the original version only. If and when we release Ronin Warriors, it will be a separate collection. There are some issues that need to be cleared on the dub.”

The OVAs will also be released as a collection and it will be both subtitled and dubbed. Again via their Facebook page, “This set will have the English dub and the Japanese with English subtitles.”

Expected release date is February 2015.

The announcement doesn’t say, but I assume it’ll be DVD only. If there are any further details about their release, I’ll let you know. I will also let you know when pre-orders are available.
