IN THE NEWS

Simuldubs from the current and upcoming seasons are currently paused, but English-subtitled simulcast releases will still continue as normal
The list of anime affected by the delay are as follows:

The racy fantasy-comedy Interspecies Reviewers has ridden a wave of broadcast cancellations and additions in both Japan and abroad. The series follows a group of adventurers reviewing the services of brothels across the land, from vampires to slime girls. But it looks like the reviewers latest quest will put them under review of the Broadcasting Ethics & Program Improvement Organization's (BPO) Youth Committee. The BPO is a watchdog group focused on Japanese television content. Every month, the BPO publishes submitted viewer opinions and complaints about what's appearing on television. The seven-member Youth Committee held a meeting on February 22 to discuss viewer complaints received from mid-January to mid-February. The discussion included viewers' concerns if children viewed Interspecies Reviewers and "it's not only vulgar and extreme, but it objectifies women." Another viewer found fault in the series' positive depiction of sex shops. During the committee's discussion, one member was concerned about the show depicting sex work in a positive way. After reviewing the viewer comments and considering the series' recent television cancellations, the Committee agreed that the members would watch the anime and issue their own comments at the next committee meeting on March 24. They plan to take into consideration that the show does air after midnight.
Then again, we could just skip forward to the BD release... ;-)
ANIME CONVENTION CANCELATIONS
There have been a lot of Anime con cancellation announcements in the news this week, so many I've kinda stopped keeping track. Anime Boston, Anime Detour, Nandeshicon, A-Kon, and Anime Central have all been canceled. I haven't heard, or noticed, if some of the upcoming summer cons have announced yet, shows like MomoCon, Animazement, Anime North, AnimeNEXT, Anime Expo, Otakon, but I think it's pretty safe to say that ALL of these shows, thru at least August, are going to end up being canceled. Small cons 'might' be able to be postponed into the fall, but the logistics of mid-size and large shows will make it almost impossible to reschedule them, and I imagine these shows will simply cancel out and look to 2021, which IMO will be very wise on the part of the organizers. Fan safety must supersede any potential financial losses in these matters.
COVID-19 UPDATE - RACS IS OPEN FOR BUSINESS
In consideration of the various shutdowns that are occurring all over the country, a few people have written in this week asking us if we are still open for business, and we definitely are and intend to remain open. Our warehouse in located in North Western Virginia, just outside of the relatively rural community of Winchester VA. We fill orders from there on a daily basis, and we have been planning and taking steps in anticipation of the virus situation for weeks now. All of our administrative personnel, including myself, are already hunkering down and working exclusively from home. The warehouse crew, the folks that are in charge of processing and filling your orders, have been split into teams who are working separate shifts. I'm also staying in close contact with our vendor, studio, and distributor network so we can anticipate and be prepared for any potential supply chain disruptions. Other steps have been taken to minimize the risk of staff exposure (for example, modifying how we interact with the parcel carriers) and my goal is to keep RACS operations open and everyone here healthy and working and filling Anime orders during the crisis. Also, I want to thank everyone who has continued to place their regular orders with us over the past couple of weeks. We are working hard to keep the Anime coming your way and your orders are a great vote of confidence in that regards.

Previously Owned Anime
 If you haven't noticed yet, we've
added a previously owned section to the store site and have been building out items on it as time permits. That section is going to get a LOT BIGGER over the next few weeks, but until then I just wanted to give you guys and gals the inside scoop. Everything we add there is a (1) unit only proposition, so be sure to check back often to make sure you don't miss out on anything cool we might just drop in there!
When Mana Shikimiya joins her new school's struggling Lyrical Tradition Dance club, she finds herself swept up in a dream shared by thousands of other
middle school girls across Japan.
The dream to someday compete at the Prism Stage, where teams of young women battle in song and dance for the chance to become the next generation of top idol singers! First, though, she'll have to help save the club from being shut down, and then she and her new friends Sayu, Mizuhua, Kae, Kasumi and Minori will have to up their musical game in order to make it to the first level of competition. Because no matter how badly they want to win, there are hundreds of other girls who want it just as much... and those girls all have a head start!

Another Day of Life is an animated film directed by Raul de la Fuente and Damian Nenow, with story based on the book by bestselling journalist Ryszard "Ricardo" Kapuściński.
The long-awaited return to Shiganshina has come. Once again, Eren, Mikasa, and Armin face the Titans in their hometown where the secrets of the Jaeger family cellar lie in wait.
