Seriously, I can’t believe it’s time for the Anime Deals: March 2026 Edition post.

Here I am, thinking that we’re still in January.

It must be because I was so busy working on my own goals that I failed to realize that March is already here.

Based on what I say, it looks like I’m progressing well with my goals, right?

If you’re talking about the goals that I set for this year, the answer is yes, albeit it’s somewhat slow to my liking.

But my reading challenge for this year?

Not so much, though.

While I managed to stick to my reading schedule for quite some time, I’m falling off the bandwagon again after some time.

It’s sad, considering it took a lot of me to be consistent with my reading schedule.

I guess there’s nothing much I can do other than to find the time that works for me and stick to it again.

Thankfully, that doesn’t seem to be the case with finding deals for this month’s Anime Deals: March 2026 post.

You can rest assured that the deals you’re seeing here will be something that you’re worth looking into.

Anime Deals: March 2026 Edition update

3/11/2026 – Updated the post with a new offer from JapanesePod101.com.

Playasia

It looks like Playasia now has a dedicated section for SEGA, just like what they did with Bandai Namco.

You can now get everything you want from SEGA at Playasia, from the Steam keys to official merchandise.

Wondering where you can get the physical copy of the Persona 3 movies?

Well, guess what? You can now get the physical copy of the Persona 3 movies at Playasia.

And the best part is that the movies do come with English subtitles.

So, don’t worry about getting the physical copies of the Persona 3 movies only to realize they don’t have English subtitles.

Of course, nothing beats playing the game since that’s where you’ll get the best experience from.

But if you prefer to enjoy the Persona 3 story in a different format, you can now get the movies in full volume at Playasia.

Wondering what else from SEGA you can get at Playasia?

You can have a look at the full listing right here:

CDJapan

Okay, I admit that I can’t seem to stop talking about the Frieren: Beyond the Journey’s End anime.

But I have to simply because there’s a special promotion going on.

And it’s available for a limited time, too.

As you can see here, the pre-order for the Frieren anime DVD and Blu-ray is already out now.

But unlike your typical DVD and Blu-ray announcement, each store will offer a different bonus for the pre-order, ranging from acrylic stands to tapestries.

What’s more, they’re all newly drawn illustrations of Frieren, Himmel, Fern, and Stark.

I won’t deny that’s the downside, considering you have to make a hard decision on where you should pre-order the DVD and Blu-ray.

But the upside?

You can pre-order the DVD and Blu-ray from any of these stores straight on the CDJapan website.

Keep in mind that you will have to pay extra since you’ll be pre-ordering the DVD or Blu-ray through their proxy website shopping service.

Of course, you can always pre-order the DVD or Blu-ray at CDJapan if you don’t like to pay for extra fees.

But the pre-order bonus you’ll get will be the common bonus, which is the foil playing cards.

That is, if you buy the whole volume purchase, though.

Interested in pre-ordering the Frieren Season 2 anime DVD or Blu-ray?

Here’s the full breakdown of what bonuses each store offers:

Frieren: Beyond the Journey’s End Season 2 DVD and Blu-ray pre-order with shop bonuses

While the anime DVD and Blu-ray will come out in June this year, I recommend that you place your order early to secure the bonuses you want.

Lindsay Does Languages

Sometimes, the best way to stick to your language learning routine is to make it as simple as it can be.

If you’re not in the mood to go through the lessons in the textbook or in the online resources such as JapanesePod101.com, you can do something else instead.

It can be something like using prompts to practice your writing and speaking.

What’s amazing about the simple approach like these is that not only do you put what you learn into practice.

But it also helps with identifying which area to improve, making your language learning progress much faster.

While using prompts to practice speaking and writing is a good idea, where in the world can you find those language prompts?

Well, here’s the good news for you – you don’t have to scour all over the Internet to find the prompts for your speaking and writing practice.

You can get all those prompts with Lindsay Does Languages’ Promptly.

With Promptly, you’ll get a new language prompt sent to you each month, saving you time from having to search all over the Internet for prompts.

Not sure how to incorporate something like Promptly in your learning process?

Well, you don’t have to crack your brain since Promptly also comes with a video tutorial on how you can fully utilize Promptly according to your language level.

It doesn’t matter whether you’re an absolute beginner or an advanced learner; you can easily incorporate prompts to fit your language level.

Think this is what you need to put what you learn into practice?

As much as I encourage people to use something like Promptly to practice their Japanese speaking and writing through prompts, it’s still important to get the basics right.

Sure, you can learn Japanese through drama, anime, music, video games, and even manga.

But you’ll have a much better understanding of the language when you have a proper learning resource.

When I say proper, it doesn’t have to be signing up for a formal Japanese class, per se.

It can be as simple as getting the Genki textbooks to learn Japanese.

Or you can use an online resource like JapanesePod101.com if you don’t fancy yourself learning Japanese through textbooks.

What’s amazing about JapanesePod101.com is that not only it has everything you need to learn Japanese.

But it also caters to all levels, from the absolute beginner to the advanced level.

Do you need help in coming up with a customized lesson plan just for you?

Their Premium PLUS subscription allows you to do just that, since it’s the plan that gives you access to your own teacher.

JapanesePod101.com is currently running a special promotion offering 45% off forever on its 1-, 3-, 6-, 12-, or 24-month Premium or Premium PLUS subscriptions.

That’s as low as $5.50 per month!

The downside is that this offer will only be available until March 20th, 2026.

If you’d like to get started with learning Japanese the right way, starting today, you can sign up for any of your preferred plans right here:
