Sentai Filmworks Announces ‘Phi-Brain’ Anime Dub Cast

Sentai Filmworks has announced on its Facebook page that English language cast for its upcoming adaptation of Phi-Brain, which is getting a DVD and Blu-ray release. The two season series has its first volume due out on March 26th and will be followed by the second on May 28th of this year. The series received a simulcast run in North America and did well enough along with other considerations to merit both a dub and a high definition release. The series is an original work from Sunrise that was directed by longtime fan favorite Junichi Sato based on a script by Mayori Sekijima. The series ran from the fall of 2011 through the winter of 2012 with a total of twenty-five episodes for the first season. The second season began in April of 2012 and ran for another twenty-five episodes. Sentai Filmworks has solicited releases for the first season in two sets so far with planned future volumes for the second season yet to come, though it is licensed. A third season of the series is planned for some time in 2013 in Japan.

Plot Concept: Kaito Daimon would be a completely average high school student except for one thing: he’s a ‘demon’ at solving puzzles. Kaito’s so brilliant, in fact, that when he’s asked to take some ‘special’ tests of his unique ability, he immediately suspects that the test itself is a test. Kaito suddenly finds himself caught up in a lethal Philosopher’s Puzzle made by the sinister group POG, a murderous maze of trap upon trap, where failing to solve the secret correctly will result in death! Fortunately, Kaito’s skills prove up to the first test, both for himself AND his childhood friend Nanoha, who is also caught up in the deadly scheme. But now that he has been designated as a Solver, he is pulled into a new life where he must travel the world with other Solvers, attempting to solve the latest deadly riddles left by POG. There’s a new conundrum around every corner and each deception could lead to death, but once a riddle has been posed, you can count on Kaito to unfold, unravel and unlock it in PHI-BRAIN ~ KAMI NO PUZZLE!
