What Does This Mean?

Walmart sees a potential for growth in this area. They are also teaming up with FUNimation to release DVD-only exclusives, providing an option for those who don’t want or need to spring for the Blu-ray/DVD combo packs. Again, as I’ve mentioned before, this could lead to even more anime titles or even manga or other merchandise.

How are the Prices?

They’re pretty average. Sailor Moon Crystal Box Set 1, for instance, retails for about the cheapest it’s ever been on Amazon, but it’s cheaper than Amazon’s current price. The Last: Naruto the Movie has been about $15 for the Blu-ray at Best Buy. Vampire Knight is currently cheaper at Amazon by $2.

Final Thoughts

I don’t see much for me personally right now, but that’s also because I a) mostly buy Blu-rays and b) am a cheapskate. I am looking forward to see their selection grow even more.
