MediaOCD Launches 'Discotek Deep Dives' Project to Offer Discotek Media's Back Catalog Titles


MediaOCD to Offer Discotek Media's Back Catalog Through New "Discotek Deep Dives" Project

Video post-production company MediaOCD has announced a new initiative called "Discotek Deep Dives" aimed at making Discotek Media's extensive back catalog more accessible to fans. Starting January 22, MediaOCD will begin offering a curated selection of Discotek titles for pre-order through its website, with a focus on titles that are becoming increasingly difficult to find.

Monthly Additions and Focus on Rare Titles

MediaOCD plans to add 20 to 30 Discotek titles to its store each month. The company is prioritizing titles that are becoming scarce, ensuring that fans have a reliable source for these sought-after releases. This move addresses concerns about the availability of older Discotek titles, particularly those that are no longer readily available through other major retailers.

Initial Lineup of Titles

The first wave of titles available for pre-order through the Discotek Deep Dives project includes a mix of classic anime films, OVAs, and TV series. Among the initial offerings are:

  • Galaxy Express 999 The Movie
  • Adieu Galaxy Express 999
  • Galaxy Express 999: Eternal Fantasy
  • Angel Cop
  • s-CRY-ed
  • Goku: Midnight Eye
  • Genocyber
  • Golgo 13: The Professional
  • Kimagure Orange Road TV
  • Kimagure Orange Road OAV + Movie
  • Super Dimension Century Orguss
  • KenIchi the Mightiest Disciple S1
  • KenIchi the Mightiest Disciple S2
  • Lupin the Third Part 1
  • Mobile Cop Jiban
  • Dallos
  • Cleopatra
  • Crusher Joe movie
  • Crusher Joe: The OVAs
  • Hans Christian Anderson's The Little Mermaid

These titles represent a diverse range of genres and animation styles, appealing to a broad spectrum of anime fans.

Availability and Shipping

Pre-orders for the initial lineup of titles are open now through the MediaOCD website. The company anticipates that these titles will begin shipping around mid-February. Fans are encouraged to place their orders early to secure their copies of these hard-to-find releases.

Addressing Delisting Concerns

MediaOCD's decision to launch the Discotek Deep Dives project was partly motivated by the recent delisting of Discotek titles by another major retailer. A post on the Discotek Media subreddit confirmed that Crunchyroll had begun removing a significant portion of Discotek's back catalog, including titles that are not out of print. MediaOCD saw this as an opportunity to step in and provide a more reliable source for these titles, ensuring that fans can continue to access them.

A Valuable Resource for Anime Fans

The Discotek Deep Dives project promises to be a valuable resource for anime fans looking to expand their collections and rediscover classic titles. By focusing on hard-to-find releases and offering a steady stream of new additions, MediaOCD is filling a critical gap in the market. The company's commitment to preserving and making available Discotek Media's extensive back catalog is a welcome development for the anime community.
