Out This Week: The Legend Of Hei II, GOAT, Summer Wars 4K and More
Well, hello there and welcome back to Out This Week, AFA's weekly round-up of what's new on physical media. Following an unusually quiet week last week, this week's list is similarly sparse. In actual fact, there is only one new release in the US in this edition.
Chinese animated sequel The Legend Of Hei II is the only title released stateside this week.
Over in the UK, Sony Pictures Animation's anthropomorphic sports movie GOAT is new on Blu-Ray. Also new is vampire anime Kizumonogatari: Koyomi Vamp, and new to 4K is Mamoru Hosoda's Summer Wars, in an AllTheAnime.com exclusive Collector's Edition.
All information is correct to the best of our knowledge and is subject to change.
