With the winter 2013 season still underway, eyes are turning towards the spring and we’re already getting some early home video solicitations. Bandai Japan has made the news via their series site that the show will run thirteen episodes and be released across seven volumes. The show is getting both Blu-ray and DVD releases, but as seems to be the practice when it happens, only the Blu-ray editions will contain English subtitles. And as you can guess, the first volume is just one episode while the remaining six volumes have two episodes per disc.
Amazon Japan links: MAIN | Vol.1, Vol.2, Vol.3, Vol.4, Vol.5, Vol.6, Vol.7

Plot Concept: Nai searches for someone important to him, with only an abandoned bracelet as a clue. Gareki steals and pick-pockets to get by from day to day. The two meet in a strange mansion where they are set-up, and soon become wanted criminals by military security operatives. When Nai and Gareki find themselves desperate in a hopeless predicament, they encounter none other than the country’s most powerful defense organization, “Circus”.

Definitely a plus to see subtitles there, though I can’t say that it’ll entice me with just two episodes per disc.
