ADV Films (distributed by SXION 23)
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.

Looking at their product line, it looks like it will be replacing the Bandai Visual label.

I just spotted a couple of errors which got past my last proofread.
Under Media Blasters, the November 24 listing (Loveless Complete Slim – 300 min) is a carryover from October. The titles under October 27 (Blade of the Immortal Vol. #2 – 100 min, Ikki Tousen Dragon Destiny Vol. #1 – 100 min, & Teknoman LiteBox – 1100 min) are the actual November 24 listings.
Many apologies…
