It’s been a couple of month since back in February that we learned that the first PriPara anime season has a Blu-ray box set scheduled in Japan We got a look at the artwork for the set previously and now Avex Pictures is going big with the next phase of promotion for it. As we’re just about a week away from its release, they have a nearly four-minute long promo that reminds fans why they love the show and should own it. The first season box set is scheduled for an April 29th, 2016 release priced at 37,800 yen. It’s being done on six Blu-ray discs for the thirty-eight episode season and will come with a special booklet. While the extras side is still kind of vague, it looks like there will be a cast commentary, but it’s not been determined for how much of the set they’ll do one.
Plot concept: PriPara (Prism Paradise) is the successor to the popular Pretty Rhythm series. The new anime is set in the PriPara world, filled with girls’ dreams and yearnings for fashion, dance, and music. Every day, there are auditions that send top idols to worldwide fame on television and online. Manaka Laala is a 5th-grader at Paprika Academy. Like most girls, she admires the world of PriPara, but unfortunately for her, her school does not allow elementary school students to participate in PriPara. However, through miraculous circumstances, Laala passes the audition to become a PriPara idol.
