"Fate/Grand Order You’ve Lost Ritsuka Fujimaru Season 3" Episode 1 …On Filling the Storage Room
Short Animation "You’ve Lost Ritsuka Fujimaru Season 3" Episode 1, "…On Filling the Storage Room"
The Grand Order. A ceaseless battle against the unknown. At least...it might be. Or maybe not. One thing's quite clear: This Master is still completely lost.
He is lost in every possible sense, on every possible subject, including (but not limited to): how much space there is left in the Spirit Origin Storage, when one should use an item that looks kind of important, or even what the daily special is today.
The slapstick anime where Fujimaru's naive questions throw the Heroic Spirits into turmoil returns for the hat trick!

*This anime includes some spoilers for Part 2 of Fate/Grand Order.

Directed by Ken Yamamoto
Jungle Pocket, known to her close friends as "Pokke," is a free-spirited Umamusume who has proven her dominance in the freestyle racing scene. Overwhelmed by Fuji Kiseki's majestic performance at a graded Twinkle Series race, she resolves to take on the Twinkle Series herself.
Shortly after joining the Umamusume training school Tracen Academy, Pokke comes under the wing of Tanabe, a veteran trainer who fostered Fuji Kiseki's talent. Together, they aspire to dominate the Triple Crown series, a set of three races that can only be attempted once in a lifetime.

There's Dantsu Flame, whose diligence and determination to win are second to none; Manhattan Cafe, who chases the shadowy silhouette of a "friend" that only she can see; and Agnes Tachyon, a veritable mad scientist seeking to push the very boundaries of what is possible for Umamusume.

“I wish I’d never read a book…!”
Mifuyu Mikura is a high school student living in Yomunaga, a town steeped in stories and surrounded by books. Her great-grandfather founded Mikura Hall, a renowned library that her family has managed for generations. But despite being raised in a book-loving town, Mifuyu has always hated books.
One day, a mysterious theft at Mikura Hall unleashes a powerful curse — the books’ curse — dragging the entire town into the worlds of the stolen stories. To undo the curse, Mifuyu must dive into the very tales she’s always avoided.
Teaming up with a strange girl named Mashiro, she sets out to reclaim the stolen books and uncover the truth behind the curse.
Who is the thief?
And what hidden secrets lie within the Mikura family — and Mifuyu herself?
A story-jumping fantasy adventure begins, filled with mystery, magic, and the power of words.
When the final curse is broken, the truth that was taken will be revealed.

Anime Masterpiece “Ninja Scroll” Gets 4K Treatment from Sentai
World Premiere to Take Place February 15 at Berlinale 76th Berlin International Film Festival; Limited Edition Blu-Ray Steel Book to Be Released in Early 2027
HOUSTON, TX — FEBRUARY 11, 2026 — Following its wildly successful 30th anniversary theatrical release, AMC Networks’ Sentai is excited to reveal the 4K adaptation of Ninja Scroll, the critically acclaimed drama film set in the age of samurai during the Edo period of feudal Japan. Originally released in 1993, Ninja Scroll (Jubei Ninpucho in Japanese) was written and directed by Yoshiaki Kawajiri, and is now considered a truly seminal work in anime filmmaking. In Summer 2024, Sentai together with HIDIVE released Ninja Scroll in over 500 theaters across the U.S. in partnership with Iconic Events Releasing as part of its AX Cinema Nights series. Spearheaded and produced by Sentai under the supervision of Director Yoshiaki Kawajiri, the digital adaptation of Ninja Scroll was a painstaking restoration and remastering of the movie — a meticulous process that involved a 4K scan (3840 × 2160 pixels) of the original 35mm negative, then repairing any damage and lastly performing color correction to create an archival quality digital master of the film.
“We’re both thrilled and humbled to be able to preserve the original 1993 Ninja Scroll film as a modern digital movie. This is Ninja Scroll at its very best!,” said John Ledford, President of Sentai. “Ninja Scroll in 4K is nothing short of a pristine version of this cinematic masterpiece, presented in stunning high definition, contrast and color. The digital adaptation offers a truly immersive experience. In fact, seeing it is like watching Ninja Scroll for the very first time!”
The world premiere of Ninja Scroll will take place on Sunday, February 15 at 10:00 pm CET during Berlinale, the 76th Berlin International Film Festival, followed by encore screenings on February 16 & 22. The movie is one of ten works from nine different countries and the first-ever anime film featured as part of the Berlinale Classics section of the festival’s program. For more information about the Ninja Scroll screening, click here.
Outside of Berlinale, fans will have their first chance to watch the 4K version of Ninja Scroll when Sentai releases the film as a limited edition Blu-ray Steel Book in 4K UHD in early 2027.

Re: Unreleased Licensed U.S. Anime Properties
https://www.mediaocd.com/post/new-li...s-new-blowouts
MediaOCD is proud to announce the following new licenses. All three will be released on Blu-ray for the very first time later this year:
Master of Martial Hearts (A.K.A. Zettai Shougeki: Platonic Heart)
Funimation once marketed this as a T&A show, but it's far weirder than that. In fact, it gets UNCOMFORTABLY dark by the end. Tongue fully in cheek, it's a camp classic.
Sketchbook ~full color'S~
A gorgeous slice-of-life in a school art club, written by Mari Okada and supervised by Junichi Sato.
