Sentai Filmworks has updated their placeholder artwork for I couldn’t become a hero, so I reluctantly decided to get a job with its DVD and Blu-ray releases and we couldn’t be happier. The release is scheduled for a November 18th, 2014 street date with the original Japanese language with English subtitles only on both formats and the new cover artwork definitely works the shows designs in a far more appealing way. It’s also one of those covers that works really well for both cases with each one providing a slightly different feeling while both having different color tones because of the case.
Check out the new artwork and disc silkscreening below as well as the original covers. Click on any of the covers to see a larger and more detailed copy.
The originally solicited placeholder covers:
Plot concept: Raul Chaser never wanted to work in retail, but when the war against the Demons ended unexpectedly, the Hero Training Program he was in shut down. But although combat-trained Raul may feel out of place dealing with customers in a department store instead of dealing out death with hardened steel, his newest co-worker’s culture shock is even worse. Because while Fino Bloodstone is ready, eager and willing to please, she’s also the daughter of the now deceased Demon King! So not only are her social skills a little challenged, but it’s going to be up to Raul and the staff to teach her the finer points of the human concept of a “pleasant shopping experience”… not to mention when it’s proper to wear what kind of clothes and whose bed you can sleep in. And they’ll have to do it quick, because there’s a sinister major retail chain moving into the area with plans for global domination. Their job isn’t to do or die, it’s to make the customers buy, buy, buy when the ultimate swords, sorcery and sales counter attack ensues in I COULDN’T BE A HERO, SO I RELUCTANTLY DECIDED TO GET A JOB!
