Between September 6 and 12, North American releases focus on a handful of anime Blu-ray releases and a broad set of manga volumes and digital editions. Crunchyroll's home-video line supplies the week's headline titles, while major manga publishers — Viz Media, Kodansha USA, Seven Seas, Vertical, Yen Press, J-Novel Club, One Peace Books, and others — release many print and digital volumes the same week.
Crunchyroll released three Blu-rays on September 8. Listed street prices in the schedule are: Kaiju No. 8: Mission Recon (US$64.98), My Hero Academia: Vigilantes Season 1 (US$74.98), and Our Last Crusade or the Rise of a New World Season 2 (US$69.98). These are the week's primary physical anime releases called out in the schedule.
Print and digital manga bulk releases
Digital editions mirror print schedules for many titles. The schedule lists digital street prices that are commonly lower than print — for example, several Viz and Kodansha titles are $6.99 digital when the print price is $11.99 or higher.
Why this week matters for readers and buyers
If you track physical anime releases, the three Crunchyroll Blu-rays set for September 8 are the primary purchases to watch. If you follow manga, the week is notable for heavy simultaneous print and digital drops across many publishers: it's a practical week to consolidate orders if you want multiple new volumes released on the same date.
- Home-video buyers: expect MSRP ranges listed for the three Crunchyroll Blu-rays and set alerts with your usual retailers if you need preorders or specific editions.
- Collectors: check series volume numbers in the schedule to avoid duplicates — the list includes many high-number volumes for ongoing series as well as first-volume releases.
The September 6–12 schedule is dominated by one midweek home-video drop and a heavy slate of manga releases (both print and digital) across multiple publishers. If you follow seasonal home-video releases or want to pick up new manga in bulk, September 8 is the focal date in this week's calendar.
