On September 1, 2009, AD Vision (ADV Films parent company) shut down and transferred most of its assets to other companies. Specifically, select portions of their film library was acquired by AEsir Holdings. The servicing and distribution of the assets acquired by AEsir Holdings will be handled by the SXION 23 (Section23 Films) home video distribution company.
Note: Section23 will also be handling the distribution of two other ADV associated licensing companies…Sentai Filmworks and Switchblade Pictures. The latter deals with live-action features, so their releases will not be listed here. See below for Sentai releases.

As of July 1, 2008, Bandai Visual USA was absorbed into Bandai Entertainment. Titles will still be released under the Bandai Visual USA name. Bandai Visual USA titles will still be sold through their own online service (dot-anime.us website). Bandai Visual has recently launched a new label called Honneamise. Looking at their product line, it looks like it will be replacing the Bandai Visual label.
