The July issue of Shueisha's Jump Square magazine revealed on Friday that D.Gray-man Hallow, the new television anime of Katsura Hoshino's D.Gray-man manga, will have six total DVD and Blu-ray Disc releases. The official website for the series lists that the first release will have three episodes and the other five releases will each have two episodes, for a total of 13 episodes.
The site also added on Friday that Hoshino will draw jacket illustrations for the home video releases.
The anime will premiere on July 4.
Yoshiharu Ashino (Tweeny Witches, Cross Ange, First Squad) is directing the anime at TMS Entertainment, with scripts by Michiko Yokote (Shirobako, Prison School, Dagashi Kashi), Tatsuto Higuchi (My-Otome, Bakumatsu Gijinden Roman, Schwarzes Marken), and Kenichi Yamashita (Koutetsu Sangokushi, Ishida and Asakura, Actually, I Am…). Yousuke Kabashima (The Girl Who Leapt Through Space, Lord Marksman and Vanadis) is adapting the character designs for animation, and is also serving as chief animation director. Yasuhiro Moriki (Ninja Robots, Crest of the Stars, Bakuon!!) is credited for design. Kaoru Wada is returning from the previous D.Gray-man anime to compose the music.
Rock band Lenny code fiction will perform the anime's opening theme, and Mashiro Ayano (Gunslinger Stratos: The Animation, Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works) will perform the ending theme.
