It certainly makes sense to do in order to get as much out of your IP as possible, so seeing film adaptations of anime TV series isn’t anything new in the anime world. Such is the case with Beyond the Boundary, which was simulcast back in the fall 2013 season. The show is now getting a theatrical adaptation that will come out in the spring of 2015 and the studio has put together a nice little 30 second spot to promote it with pieces from the series itself.
The series has been licensed for release on home video in North America by Sentai Filmworks.
Series concept: The dark fantasy follows a high school sophomore named Akihito Kanbara. Although the boy appears human, he is half youmu and invulnerable to wounds because he can heal quickly. One day, Akihito meets freshman Mirai Kuriyama when it seems she is about to jump from the school rooftop. Mirai is isolated because of her ability to manipulate blood, which is unique even among members of the spirit world. Disturbing events begin to unfold after Akihito saves Mirai.
