BTOOOM! Released Monday

posted on by Andrew Osmond
Also, second season of Dragon Ball GT.

On Monday March 17MVM is releasing the action series BTOOOM! on DVD (right). Junya Inoue's original manga centers around Sakamoto, a NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) young man and a top-ranked player in the online combat game Btooom! One day, he wakes up on a tropical island without remembering how he got there. He sees a figure in the distance and asks for help. However, the figure responds by throwing something at Ryūta — a "BIM" bomb. First-time series director Kotono Watanabe (episode director on Chihayafuru, Aoi Bungaku Series, Puella Magi Madoka Magica) helmed the project at the Studio Madhouse, and Yousuke Kuroda (Best Student Council, Hayate the Combat Butler, Hellsing, Highschool of the Dead, Mobile Suit Gundam 00) wrote the scripts. In addition to creating Btooom!, Inoue also created the Otogi Matsuri manga.

Manga Entertainment will releases the second set of Dragon Ball GT (left), carrying the next 31 episodes of the series.

Anime Limited told ANN that its release of Tiger & Bunny the Movie: The Beginning appears to have been moved back a week to March 24.
