There’s some good stuff coming up for the Fafner fan out there as a Japanese ultimate Blu-ray box set is being put together. Scheduled for a March 13th, 2019 debut, we now have a look at the packaging for the set. It’s coming out with 21 discs that covers what looks to be everything released so far in a pretty simple but nicely done package. The set will feature the original 26 episode series, the RIGHT OF LEFT production, the Heaven and Earth film including a UHD edition, the EXODUS series and THE BEYOND property as well.
It’s a massive set with a lot of material that will be priced high at 100,000 yen, a price point we don’t see all that often.
Property Concept: Tatsumiya Island is a small, idyllic haven for those lucky enough to call it home… until a surprise attack by a savage enemy shakes the water-locked paradise to its core. With Festum on the warpath, it’s up to the island’s dedicated inhabitants to pilot powerful Fafners and fight back! Before the gun smoke clears, illusions will be shattered and lifelong friendships will be stretched to their limits. Will this peaceful island survive the chaos of all-out war?
When a group of friends gears up to take on vicious Festum attackers, there’s no telling who will become a hero… and who will be sacrificed to the ravages of battle. Life as they know it is on the line, and these brand-new soldiers learn to trust their instincts (and one another) in order to man their Fafners with fearless skill. Man and machine unite to take down all invaders and save the homeland!
