We are just having fun reviewing and discussing comic books, graphic novels, manga, anime/animation, music and movies that we have recently read, listened to or watched.
Here is a title most libraries will probably want to add to their manga collections. VIZ Media ia planning to publish Redakai. This title will appeal to you animation and TCG players, since Radakai has an anime by Marathon, on Cartoon Network, and a TCG put out by Spin Master. There is no set date on release for this title yet, but you will want to start watching your purchasing sources and alert your purchasing agent and they might be able to pre-order the first book.
Season 1, Vol. 1 of Redakai: Conquer the Kairu which airs on Cartoon Network on February 28. The two discs set will come with an exclusive Blast 3D “Harrier” card for the Redakai TCG. This would be a good give-away for your library for your gamers and might even attract your anime fans.
Another story for the gaming crowd. It has been announced by ICv2 that Redakai: Conquer the Kairu TCG is getting a “Metacharged” expansion set. It will have 75 new monsters and have a ratio of out of 11 cards there will be one rare and one super rare card per pack. There will also be Gold Packs that will only have 6 cards, which will have the same rare and super rare cards, but will also have a Gold Pack rare card. The expansion packs are due out this October.
This will appeal to your patrons that like anime and trading card games. Redakai: Conquer the Kairu is set to debut on Cartoon Network on July 23 at 10:00 a.m. There will also be a tie in trading card game Redakai Lenticular, however these cards are not scheduled until August.
