Dogasu's Backpack | DVD Guide | TV Episodes (Region 2)

In Japan, the TV episodes that are released on DVD are done so in a seemingly random fashion. After a failed attempt at a comprehensive release with the early Jouto episodes, it seems that Media Factory became content with only releasing "special" TV episodes on DVD.
