The distributor listing suggests a 5-disc set, presumably including each of the four existing movies and a disc of extras. A/V details are subject to change, but so far it looks like the films will include HDR10 high dynamic range and the existing 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio mixes. Keep in mind again though that this shouldn’t be considered confirmed until the studio weighs in officially.

The fact that distributors are starting to list the SKU however, suggests that an announcement could come fairly soon, possibly as early as next week. More details as they come in...

And one other note this afternoon: A couple of Bits readers have emailed or messaged us today to report that they’ve just gotten their fixed Akira 4K UHD discs in the mail from FUNimation. So it appears that their replacement program has begun sending out the corrected discs. Keep an eye on those mailboxes.

That’s all for now. Stay tuned...
