With the complete collections for Golden Time on Blu-ray seemingly out of print for a bit now, Sentai Filmworks revealed this past spring that they’re looking to give the 2013 anime series some new attention with a new dub being produced for it. That’s resulting in the previously announced two-cour complete set that’s due out on Blu-ray only on December 17th, 2019. Priced at $89.98, the twenty-four episode set now has its full packaging spread released which is going with a different design than the previous sets did, which is welcome.
The series, focusing on college-age characters struggling with real emotions, is based on the light novel series of the same name by Yuyuko Takemiya and Eji Komatsu. The series wrapped up with eleven volumes on March 8th, 2014. A new visual novel game was released in 2014 and the anime adaptation by JC Staff has already been licensed by Sentai Filmworks for home video release in the future.
Plot Concept: Banri Tada has seen his share of trouble, but now he’s leaving that behind him and entering law school. Or that was the plan, but on the first day of class, he finds himself lost and wandering. Fortunately, while trying to resolve his predicament, he meets Mitsuo, a fellow law student, and together they head to class. Only to be suddenly confronted with a beautiful woman who, much to Banri’s surprise, slaps Mitsuo in the face with a bouquet of roses. She’s Koko Kaga, Mitsuo’s self-appointed future bride. He may have new friends, but if Banri thought his problems were over, he’ll have to cross-examine his conclusion. Together they’ll juggle life, love and more than a little drama.
