Hanabee had a new acquisition at the Supernove Gold Coast convention this past weekend with news that they’ve picked up the rights to the TV series AnoHana. The series was released in the summer of 2012 in North America by NIS America and Japan has a new theatrical feature in the works for the property as well. Hanabee indicates that they’ll be releasing this on DVD in July, though unlike the North American release, no Blu-ray appears to be planned at thi stime.
Plot Concept: Jinta Yadomi and his group of childhood friends have become estranged after a tragic accident split them apart. Now in their high school years, a sudden surprise forces each of them to confront their guilt over what happened that day and come to terms with the ghosts of their past. With their childhood friend Menma back in their lives, the “Super Peace Busters” put their personal issues aside and work together to grant her one true wish. But to do it right, they’ll have to overcome years of shame, hard feelings, and heartache.
