With no Japanese edition available out there yet, curiosity abounds regarding the new announced German edition of Chrono Crusade on Blu-ray. The series, which aired in 2003-2004 and was all the rage in North America when ADV Films brought it out, is set for a June 26th, 2015 release from EMP. Priced at 79.99 euro, it’ll contain the original 24 episodes in Japanese using PCM encoding while the German language version is done in 5.1 using the DTS-HD MA lossless codec. The release will contain the Extra classes pieces, promo videos, the clean opening and closing sequences as well as the original on-air promotions.
The series saw its most recent US release from FUNimation in 2011 with a SAVE DVD box set.
Plot concept: The year is 1928 A.D. The place is New York, U.S.A. The economic prosperity brought forth after the Great War also heightened the presence of something far darker and much more sinister: the demonic Sinners. The Magdalene Order is an organization that tries to counter this force. Two of its exorcists are Rosette Christopher and her assistant, Chrono. Both appear out of place in an organization like this, and they are in a quest to find Rosette’s missing brother, Joshua. Their relationships, secrets and fates can only be revealed in time…
