The two-week shift was caused by manufacturing delays, said Right Stuf President and C.E.O. Shawne Kleckner. He continued, “We know the fans of Maria Watches Over Us have waited patiently for it to be available on DVD. We thank you for your support, and we’re looking forward to bringing its second installment to you just in time for the holiday season.”

The Season 2 DVD Collection is the second of several “season box sets”

scheduled for the series’ North American DVD release.

* Each set features Japanese audio, along with English on-screen

translations, and two English-language subtitle tracks: one with regular dialogue subtitles and a second, special subtitle track that retains the Japanese honorifics.
