With the first collection of Snow White with the Red Hair out in Franch back on September 28th, 2016 – on DVD only, Kaze France later that month scheduled the second collection for a November 16th, 2016 debut. That didn’t last too long overall as the distributor has now bumped that set to a December 14th, 2016 release date where it’ll again be spread across three discs with the original Japanese language plus French subtitles. No extras are currently listed for it but we did get the artwork revealed as you can see below.
The work comes from Sorata Akizuki which began back in 2006 in the LaLa magazine and has fifteen volumes out so far. The series is known as Akagami no Shirayukihime and was produced by Studio Bones with Masahiro Ando directing based on the scripts by Dekao Akao. Kumiko Takahashi servedd as the character designer.
The cast includes stars Saori Hayami as Shirayuki, Ryota Ohsaka as Zen, Jun Fukuyama as Raji Shenazard, Kaori Nazuka as Kiki Seiran, Nobuhiko Okamoto as Obi, Toshiyuki Toyonaga as Mihaya, Yuichiro Umehara as Mitsuhide Roen, Akira Ishida as Izana, Yuko Kaida as Garack and Yuko Sanpei as Ryu.
Plot concept: Shirayuki was a young girl born with unique apple-red hair. She meets a famous but foolish Prince Raji, who falls in love with her at first sight and orders her to become his concubine. With nowhere else to go, Shirayuki cuts her hair and escapes to a neighboring country. While traversing through the forests, she meets a young boy, Zen, who helps her after she boldly cures his wounds but then gets poisoned by an apple given to Shirayuki. Meanwhile, Prince Raji sends out henchmen to search for her. What will happen to Shirayuki? What is Zen’s true character? A refreshing fantasy story between an optimistic heroine and a prince who constantly stays on her watch.
