While Discotek Media does tend to focus on older and more obscure titles that are hard to justify on Blu-ray – and in some cases on DVD as well, they do know which shows need a Blu-ray release. They’ve announced the acquisition of the 2012 series Kyousougiga today and they’re intent on bringing it out on DVD and Blu-ray, presumably in 2016 at this point. You can check out our reviews and discussions about the series here as we covered it as it streamed on Crunchyroll.
The ONA series aired in the fall 2013 series and ran for ten episodes with Toei Animation producing it. Overall direction was done by Rie Matsumoto with series composition by the original creator Izumi Toudou, scripts by Miho Maruo and character designs by Yuuki Hayashi.
Plot concept: Hidden within Kyoto is the “mirror capital” where youkai and humans live together and no one ever dies. It is protected by three people—Kurama, Yase, and Myoue—as they await the return of their parents, Myoue Jonin and Koto. One day, a young girl named Koto (same name, different spelling) and her little brothers A and Un wander into the city from a different dimension looking for her mother. A mecha-geek with red eyes, it’s not immediately clear whether she’s human or youkai. Her arrival upsets the long peace that had ruled the city.
I really love this show. I can’t wait to get it.
