A.D. Vision (simply known as ADV and also referred to as ADV Films) is an American multimedia entertainment studio that served as the largest American and British anime distributor in the late 20th to early 21st centuries. Headquartered in Houston, Texas, ADV Films was formed in 1992 by video game fan John Ledford and anime fans Matt Greenfield and David Williams. The company spent the next 17 years in the fields of home video production and distribution, broadcast television, theatrical film distribution, merchandising, original productions, magazine and comic book publishing. In 2002, most of ADV Films' back catalog were used to program its new channel, the Anime Network.
For over 15 years, ADV released successful anime series, such as Neon Genesis Evangelion, Robotech, RahXephon, Full Metal Panic, Azumanga Daioh, Elfen Lied, Gantz, Red Garden and Le Chevalier D'Eon. The company maintained offices in North America, Europe and Asia. In addition to North America, ADV Films distributed their home media releases in the United Kingdom, Italy, and Germany. The company's fortunes declined in the mid-2000s due to low sales. With ADV's fire sale of its assets in 2009, they were spun off into five different companies:Section23 Films, Sentai Filmworks, Aesir Holdings, Valkyrie Media Partners and Seraphim Digital; which became subsidiaries of AEsir Media. Ledford, Greenfield and Williams continue to work for these companies as mentors and creative consultants and most of ADV's back catalog were relicensed by Section23, Sentai, Maiden Japan and Funimation. In 2013, ADV Films was revived to re-release Elfen Lied on Blu-ray with Section23 and Sentai Filmworks.

ADV Films Ad Promo / "Girls of Action" ad set - 1996
This is an ADV Films anime ad promo from 1996. I have dubbed it the "Girls of Action" ad set because the titles featured are ones that carry a heroine in a dominate or near-dominate action-oriented role. This is taken from a VHS copy of Sukeban Deka 2, and unfortunately that particular copy was a dub of another tape, so this resultant clip is of poor quality.
The titles promo'ed are:
- Blue Seed
- Burn Up W
- Galaxy Fraulein Yuna
- Gunsmith Cats
Sukeban Deka is an action-oriented OVA from the mid-90's based on a manga of the same name that was originally created in the late 70s, about a high school girl that kicks ass using a yo-yo.
