Those looking forward to the upcoming Blu-Ray release of Akiba Maid War, which is being released as both a Collector’s Edition and Standard Edition in the UK, will have to wait a little bit longer as both have received new release dates.
Originally both the Collector’s Edition and Standard Edition of Akiba Maid War were scheduled to be released on 19th August 2024 (as reported here). However, updated listings on the AllTheAnime Store and at online retailers (such as Amazon UK and Anime-On-Line) have now revealed that the Collector’s Edition will release on the 26th August 2024 with the Standard Edition releasing on the 9th September 2024.
