Originally released in a pricier box set back in December 2012, Siren Visual is setting a new priced-down non-box set release for Dennou Coil. The series will see release on August 20th, 2014 for $49.95 AUD compared to the $79.95 AUD of the original set. The series brings the full twenty-six episode Madhouse animated series out in one release that is in Japanese only with English subtitles. Extras include interviews, cast and crew Q&A, the bonus episodes as well as the TV and production spots. The DVD release is for region four only though.
Plot concept: Eleven years after the introduction of internet-connected, augmented reality eyeglasses and visors, Yūko Okonogi moves with her family to Daikoku City, the technological center of the emerging half-virtual world. Yūko joins her grandmother’s “investigation agency” comprised of children equipped with virtual tools and powerful metatags. She quickly crosses paths with Yūko Amasawa, an expert hacker of the virtual environment, as Amasawa relentlessly seeks to “unlock” the mystery of a computer virus that emerges from an inaccessible corrupted space.
