Aniplex USA is now detailing their plans for the import release of the second Persona 3 anime feature film with their collectors edition and regular edition. Both releases are set to land on March 11th, 2015 and there’s definitely a lot to like for fans of the film franchise with what it includes. The collector’s edition comes with a pretty slick book and box as well as the original soundtrack while both releases feature some solid on-disc extras with commercials, trailers and an audio commentary. Sadly, the extras are not subtitled – and that includes the commentary – so the value of it will go down for some in that regard.

Plot concept: “I wish it would stay like this every day…” Following his transfer to Gekkoukan Private Academy, Makoto Yuki is suddenly attacked by a strange monster called Shadows and is awakened to a power which allowed him to summon a Persona. Seeing Makoto’s potential, the members of the Specialized Extracurricular Execution Squad approach him to join them in their battle against these creatures. Makoto, initially feeling detached from the situation accepts their invitation indifferently, but as he learned more about the “Dark Hour,” and engaged in many harsh battles, he began feeling a strong bond with his teammates. And so the season turned from spring to summer… the battle was far from over for the SEES team, now joined by a new member, but they all felt a sense of fulfillment even as they faced these abnormal circumstances. The wheels of fate began to turn… as they were about to learn of the new trials they must face.
