Long time independent Australian anime distributor Siren Visual has apparently gone through a bit of a quiet change last month that I haven’t seen reflected anywhere. According to an update from another local distributor of cult films, Glass Doll Films, they’ve acquired Siren Visual.
According to information from Glass Doll Films, Siren Visual is now under new ownership and the previous staff from Siren Visual have moved on. Glass Doll Films has taken over control of Siren’s catalog and will be continuing the brand and will be making appearances at the various conventions in the region in the coming months. By all appearances, it looks like it’ll be business as usual, at least for the short term.
Siren Visual began back in 1987 as a music distribution company before working with VHS distribution with anime through Manga Entertainment UK and growing and expanding from there.
