Anime Limited has made a pretty welcome pickup for UK fans with the addition of Marian Successor Nadesico. The company intends to bring this classic 90’s property out this summer on Blu-ray only as a limited collector’s edition. It’ll contain the full twenty-six episode run, the Prince of Darkness movie, all the previously seen DVD extras, and the Gekiganger 3 OVA.
Extras for the sets include Clean Opening, Clean Ending, TV Spots, Trailers, Interviews with Actors and Staff, “Welcome to Belle Equipe” featurette, “Nadesico Sorekara” special, and a music video.
Nozomi Entertainment is bringing it out in North America on April 4th, 2017 on both DVD and Blu-ray.
Plot concept: The Earth, its moon and its Martian colonies are under alien attack, but the war against the “Jovian lizards” has, so far, been nothing short of a series of disasters.
Disgusted by the incompetence of Earth’s military, the independent arms manufacturer Nergal builds its own space battleship and plans to launch a desperate offensive to save humanity. But due to a shortage of trained soldiers, they’ve assembled the most unorthodox crew to ever launch into orbit! With a pacifist cook-turned-unwilling mecha pilot and a ditsy admiral’s daughter in command, can this unprecedented gathering of geeks, misfits and anime fans prevail against the Jovian menace?
