Madman Entertainment continues to add more titles to their upcoming list of releases with the latest one getting the nod is Maken-Ki!, which will make its debut on February 19th, 2014. The release is bringing over the twelve episode first season (which has a new season kicking off in 2014) along with the first OVA as well. That bonus episode is appropriately titled “It’s Summer! It’s Swimsuits! It’s Training Camp!” and you can easily imagine what it’s about. The show is getting a DVD only release in bilingual form priced at $59.95 AUD.

Extras include the commentary for episodes 1 & 7, Heart-Throb! Maken-ki! Secret Training 1-6, Japanese commercials, Original teaser and Textless songs as it mirrors the North American release.

Plot concept: Takeru enrolled in Tenbi Academy because the girl-to-guy ratio is, like, three girls for every guy. But this bevvy of bombshells is actually a school where teens beef up their combat skills using a magic power thingy called a Maken. Redheads with wicked high kicks, shocking blonde bullies, and aggressive brunettes are everywhere. And every time there’s a brawl, their clothes tend to disintegrate.  Distracted by all the bouncy brawlers, Takeru has a hard time concentrating on his training. Things get sticky when the hornball can’t figure out how to use his Maken. If he doesn’t find his mojo quick, he’ll be dumped by the school of his dreams – or destroyed by an attacker who’s after his magic power thingy!
