posted on by Andrew Osmond
On Monday September 21, Anime Limited will release the first volume of Sword Art Online II, as both a standard DVD and a Blu-ray/DVD combi Collector's Edition. This is the first of four volumes, carrying the first seven episodes. The Collector's Edition also includes a 52-page booklet.
Sword Art Online II adapts the third arc, Phantom Bullet, from Reki Kawahara's original light novel series. The story involves the wildly popular pro shooter MMO Gun Gale Online; its players are mysteriously turning up dead in real life. Kazuto, the hero of the original Sword Art Online, agrees to investigate, with the help of the troubled, ice-cold sniper Shinon.
MVM will release a Blu-ray Collector's Edition of A Lull in the Sea. This carries the complete 26-part series, as well as two soundtrack CDs and a 76-page hardcover art book. MVM has already released the series as a two-part standard DVD.
Manga Entertainment will release the complete series of Noragami on Blu-ray and DVD. Funimation previously described the series:
Yato may just be a minor god now, but he's determined to make it big and he's got a plan. Unfortunately, things just don't seem to be going his way. He doesn't have a single shrine dedicated to him, his partner has just quit, and now he's got to find a new divine weapon. Just when things look bleak, he meets a girl named Hiyori and changes her life forever.
Manga Entertainment will also release Complete Series 14 of Bleach, carrying episodes 292 to 316 of the series.
