Although they initially planned to have both available for purchase earlier this month, Australian anime publisher Siren Visual have reported that their box set of Monster and release of Nodame Cantabile have had to be delayed until September 2015.
According to Siren Visual’s Facebook page, the delay of Monster is due to Mr. Urasawa giving them his final blessings for the box design. Delays for Nodame Cantabile on the other hand are because they are “still ironing out the creases” – commenting that they have “gotta get those subs water-tight”.
According to the Siren Visual website, the Monster Complete Series Box Set will now be available beginning September 18 2015 – with the box (only) available a few days earlier on September 14th. The first season of Nodame Cantabile on the other hand will be released between the two, dated at September 16 2015.
Siren Visual’s release date of Nagi no Asukara – A Lull in the Sea remains unchanged
