As the show is just about to air here and we’ve already had word of Aniplex USA picking up the series, Aniplex Japan is now setting the first volume of release for its home territory. that release, coming in a Blu-ray limited edition for 7350 yen, a DVD limited edition for 6300 yen and a regular edition for 5250 yen will debut on September 25th, 2013. According to the first bit of information for it, it will contain the first two episodes – with the first episode being a director’s cut version of it, and it will also include a character image song CD, a special case and a tarot card related to the set. The release will also have a promotional video on disc and what appears to be some other pre-broadcast special event material as well.
Plot concept: Since ancient times long past, this world has been ruled by two tarot cards.
Diablos Tarot—The tarot of the devil that feasts on the souls of living humans and uses that nourishment to bring countless pain and suffering.
Elemental Tarot—The tarot that draws its energy from the power of nature in order to oppose the Diablos Tarot.
Girls chosen from 22 different bloodlines become the wielders of the Elemental Tarot, plunging themselves into this secret battle.
To maintain the balance of this world,
While carrying unbearable guilt…
Are they executioners? Or saviors?
This is the story of the long, long battle fought by girls who cannot escape the fate they bear.
