History Trivia / MediaBlasters

* NoExportForYou: ''Ladies vs. Butlers'' lacks the omakes present in the Japanese releases.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: They were almost going to bring over ''Manga/SayonaraZetsubouSensei'', but sat on the license for too long and lost the rights as a result. It took 11 years for somebody to get the license again, but thankfully, Creator/NozomiEntertainment did so in mid-2019.

** Many of their Tokusatsu releases like ''Film/TheMysterians'' and ''Film/{{Atragon}}'' for instance, were supposed to have the original American cuts and dubs of their respected movies. Unfortunately [[ExecutiveMeddling Toho stepped in]] and denied them permission to use the alternate cuts/dubs and instead only use the more notorious "International dubs".

* BadExportForYou: Their DVD for ''Film/{{Dogora}}'' is infamous amongst Toku fans for its incredibly grainy and unpolished picture transfer, complete with a distracting yellow line that pops up on occasions. This is especially baffling as many of their Tokusatsu releases used the Toho prints, yet the print used for the Japanese release was noticeably cleaner and sharper.

** At one point, they had plans to dub the second season of ''Manga/SquidGirl'', but they abandoned those plans, and eventually, the license expired. Thankfully, Creator/SentaiFilmworks eventually got the license, and made their own dub of season 2; while [[TheOtherDarrin everyone from the first season]] was replaced, Creator/ChristineMarieCabanos [[RoleReprise reprised the role of the titular character]].

* TheOtherDarrin: When Media Blasters licensed the second season of ''Manga/IkkiTousen'', they declined to use New Generation Pictures (who had dubbed the first season) and instead used Headline Sound Studios, which was closer to MB's office. This resulted in a completely different cast, much to the fanbase's chagrin. On the plus side, Funimation dubbed the later seasons and [[TheOriginalDarrin brought back the season one cast]], though some of the season two cast members came back where their characters debuted in said season to begin with.

* NoDubForYou: Quite a few examples, especially in the last few years. Though to their credit, they try to dub when they think there will be a market for it.
