Madman Entertainment previously brought out the subtitled editions of Code Geass: Akito the Exiled for Australian audiences and as we’re about to get the bilingual edition here in North America they’ve announced plans for it in Australia as well. The distributor is setting an August 15th, 2017 release date for the complete series with separate DVD and Blu-ray editions priced at $59.95 and $69.95 respectively.
The English cast includes Micah Solusod as Akito Hyuga, Jeannie Tirado as Leila Malcal, Ricco Fajardo as Ryo Sayama, Aaron Dismuke as Yukiya Naruse, Elizabeth Maxwell as Ayano Kosaka, Alex Organ as Shin Hyuga, Jad Saxton as Jean Rowe, Joel McDonald as Ashley Ashra, Yuri Lowenthal as Suzaku and Kate Higgins as C.C..
The show has been picked up for release in North America by FUNimation and has been licensed in Australia by Madman. The original series was licensed in North America by Bandai Entertainment but had fallen out of print since the closure of the company. FUNimation picked up the rights to both properties back in the summer of 2013.
Plot concept: Leila Malcal, commander of her very own W-0 unit for the European army, takes on dangerous missions with her powerful and mysterious lieutenant, Akito Hyuga. With a group of rebels on their side, they fight the Britannian army but face more than the typical perils of war. A foe from Akito’s past seeks his life and a dark power threatens all that Leila has worked for.
