For news about DVD release dates, I'd suggest keeping your eyes on sites like fandompost and animenewsnetwork that actually care about the industry, rather than sites where most people would rather watch on shitty illegal streaming sites. |

Railgun was held back because the JP rights owners didn't want reverse-importation issues, as the DVD/BDs weren't entirely released in Japan and reverse-importation is a hugely growing problem for the JP companies. This is likely going to be a problem more and more as time goes on. Funimation themselves said straight out the materials were being held from them to keep them from working on it or releasing it until over 2 years later. The show OP wants has been out for long enough where that's not an issue. Chances are ADV (Sentai) is just still working on it or sitting on it for later - as they aren't exactly a big player in the localization scene any more. Likely the latter - ADV, even when they were almost running a monopoly on anime in the west, were pretty well known for licensing everything and then not doing anything with those licenses. They simply bought them up so nobody else could. They can't afford that now, but habits aren't easy to stop so it's a possibility. |

| My guess is that they realized they were being completely retarded, by licensing the 4th and final season of a franchise before the 2nd and 3rd had been released and they should work on licensing and releasing those before they worried about F. |

AnimeCollector25 said: I heard Sentai Filmworks was supposedly releasing the final season of "Familiar of Zero", a series FUNimation dropped because of low sales. But that was mentioned in 2012 and now, in 2013, I can't find any trace of a DVD from them for "Familiar of Zero" other than the original FUNimation version that is almost $700! Its not on Amazon, its not on Sentai Filmwork's shop or on Rightstuf's shop, so where the HELL is it?! Did they back out of it for some reason?! I wanna see more episodes of "Familiar of Zero"! I can hardly find the episodes on Youtube. Beats me. I wish it was picked up by someone else. I have the original artbox version from Geneon and have been waiting since 2008 for the next chapter of the series to be released over seas. Sadly I haven't even seen a region 1 import. I heard that the show has had issues also due to the original creator of the manga passing away. I guess I'll either have to suck it up and buy the Japanese region 4 import for an absurd amount of cash, Or wait and hope that it comes out eventually on dvd/bu-ray over here. |
