It's been kinda tight for quality-releases this year, tho I'm fairly impressed with ADV so far.
This year's been pretty good for ADV title-releases. Not only that, but the quality of the ADV english-dubbing had dramatically improved on most of the titles! A few of their better dubbed releases this year:
-- CatGirl NukuNuku
-- DaiGuard complete
-- Excel complete
-- Rahxephon
-- Mazinkaiser
-- Sakura Wars (ova and tv)
-- Colorful
-- Full Metal Panic (borderline-dubs, but great new show)
-- Voices of a Distant Star
-- Steel Angel Kurumi 2
If only they'd hurry up and release Azumanga Daioh and Nadesico-movie this year.
I also like Pioneer for Chobits and Mahoromatic dvd's and OST's. The boxsets for El Hazard and re-release of Tenchi OVA single-discs were good, too.
Bandai's best title so far this year (imho) is Please Teacher and Love Hina Again's release is scheduled next week.
props to Funimation for completing Fruits Basket release and TokyoPop for GTO. Tho TokyoPop's pulled a stupid with Initial D.
Much thanks to SynchPoint for finally completing FLCL. Now if only they can speed up on their other good title "I'm Gonna be an Angel".
Much thanks to VIZ for finally releasing Maison Ikkoku on r1 dvd!
