Date: 8/25/2005
Viz Media, LLC. has announced that the first 100,000 copies of Inuyasha the Movie 3: Swords of an Honorable Ruler (MSRP $24.98), which will debut on DVD on September 6th, will include an exclusive limited edition trading card from Score Entertainment's Inuyasha TCG. Viz plans to back the launch of the third Inuyasha animated feature with a national TV advertising campaign and with an innovative 15-market mobile theater roadshow (see "Inuyasha 3 Promoted With Mobile Theater Tour").



The 167-episode Inuyasha TV series is a staple of the Cartoon Network's Adult Swim late night block. In addition to the plethora of TV episodes there are four (so far) Inuyasha movies. Viz released the second Inuyasha movie on DVD last December 28th and has sold over 100,000 copies so far, making it one of the top anime DVD releases of 2005.
