Funimation last brought out the BlazBlue: Alter Memory anime series on DVD/BD combo format back in 2015 and that means it’s now time to bring out a priced-down SAVE edition to get it into more hands. The new edition is scheduled for a March 21st, 2017 release that will mirror what we had before but with a more minimal style package with the familiar green banner. Ahead of the release they’ve now brought out a new trailer to promote the show and reconnect fans with it.

The series was animated at teamKG and Hoods Entertainment. With a series of games starting back in 2008 and extending into 2013 as well as a couple of novels and some manga, it’s no surprise that BlazBlue got an anime adaptation.
Plot concept: Long ago, an insidious black beast sought to obliterate the human race, but the monster was defeated by a valiant Band of Heroes wielding the power of Ars Magus: a potent combo of magic and technology. Now, a roguish outlaw known as Ragna the Bloodedge seeks to wreak havoc upon the Librarium, a clandestine organization that governs Ars Magus. Armed with the mighty Azure Grimoire, Ragna quickly becomes the target of vigilantes, scientists, vampires, and Librarium foot soldiers. As he spirals toward a violent showdown with the maniacal Hazama, Ragna will discover just how closely his fate is tied to the future of our world!
