Originally scheduled for a December 2nd, 2014 release date, Sentai Filmworks has updated retailers to adjust the date to February 24th, 2015. The set itself remains the same with no differences in what will be included, but the company cited that getting the materials from the licensor has slowed down production. This collector’s edition contains episodes 1-13 plus an eye patch; stickers; postcards; a keychain; and a 152-page art booklet packed with character information, commentary with the Japanese director and actors, and more.
On disc extras include Chuni-Shorts, Japanese Promos, Clean Opening Animation and the Clean Closing Animation.
Plot concept: Yuta has a problem. As one of the thousands of Japanese students afflicted with “chunibyo,” a state where they’re so desperate to stand out that they’ve literally convinced themselves that they have secret knowledge and hidden powers, Yuta spent most of his middle school years living in a complete fantasy world. But that’s not his major problem now, as with a lot of work and effort, he’s finally managing to overcome his delusions to the point where thinks he’s ready to start high school with all his cards in order. No, his BIG problem is the girl he first encounters climbing on his balcony.
It seems that his own efforts to rid himself of his chunibyo have attracted the attentions of another sufferer, and she’s decided that this makes him her soul mate. And since Rikka’s just moved in upstairs, now he’s being sucked into her fantasy world! Can a formerly wild and crazy guy handle being the focus of a completely delusional girl? Or will his own chunibyo return with a vengeance?
Should that be Feb. 2015?
