Question:<\/strong> Roughly half of the releases I’ve cataloged were heavily edited and recut English dubbed releases distributed domestically as children’s cartoons rather than imported anime. The other half, however, consists largely of early releases from America’s core anime licensing industry. DiscoTek has announced plans for a forthcoming DVD release of Sirius no Densetsu, but sadly most of these titles seem doomed to remain relics of anime’s history in America.<\/p>\n ADV\/Soft Cel:<\/b> AnimEigo:<\/b> Bandai:<\/b> Central Park Media:<\/b> Malibu Graphics:<\/b> Manga:<\/b> Media Blasters:<\/b> Pioneer:<\/b> Right Stuf:<\/b> Star Anime Enterprises:<\/b> Streamline:<\/b> U.S. Renditions:<\/b> Urban Vision:<\/b> Verotica:<\/b> Viz:<\/b> Other Distributors:<\/b> Question: I was wondering if you know which anime are only available on VHS?

\nI was wondering if you know which anime are only available on VHS? I need a list.<\/p>\n
\nAnswer:<\/strong>
\nWith the time and resources available to me, it would be impossible for me to compile a list of all of the anime titles released in Japan that have never made the transition from analog VHS\/LD to digital DVD\/BD. There are certain to be thousands of obscure Japanese titles no longer available, many of them OVAs from 1980s and 90s. Even compiling a list of anime commercially released in America during the VHS era that has not made the transition to the digital age is a daunting task. I’ve made an effort, but there are sure to be releases I’ve overlooked or which I’m not aware of. I’ve also consciously excluded a handful of questionably legal American adult anime VHS releases that had no English translation, like “Watch Me Sink My Putz” (Beat Shot<\/i>) and “Depraved and Happy” (Etchi de Happy Pin! Pin! Pin!<\/i>).<\/p>\n![\"VHS_2\"](\"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/VHS_2-450x257.jpg\" "\\"VHS_2\\"")
