Anime Limited announced their acquisition of the Silver Spoon property last week but they didn’t have any details about it. Curiosity was certainly abound as previously we only had the North American release from Aniplex USA, which was done as a DVD-only release. Anime Limited has now confirmed that they have indeed picked up both seasons of the series and that while no dates are set for them yet, they also confirmed that they will be a Blu-ray only release when they do arrive.
Check out our reviews of the DVD releases of the first season and the second season from Aniplex USA.
Plot concept: The only reason why Yugo Hachiken decided to attend the Oezo Agricultural High School (a.k.a. Ezono) was simply because the school had a dormitory. Entering Ezono was a way for Yugo to run away from the stifling academic pressures in the city, however, it didn’t take long for him to realize that life is not that simple. Yugo is soon forced to face more hurdles in his new environment surrounded by all the farm animals and the magnificent Mother Nature. He also begins feeling a different kind of pressure as he deals with his classmates who, unlikely him, all have a clear view of what they want for their futures. Even so, as Yugo overcomes one challenge after another at Ezono and deepens his bonds with his classmates, he begins to grow stronger both physically and mentally. This is a coming-of-age story filled with sweat, tears, and literally a lot of dirt!
