Nerima Daikon Brothers Now Available

posted on by Andrew Osmond
Also, second half of The Heroic Legend of Arslan

Anime Limited's DVD release of Nerima Daikon Brothers is now available. In the series, Hideki, leader of the Nerima Daikon Brothers, has a dream to build a dome in his hometown of Nerima to hold a concert for his band. Together with his cousin, Mako (whom he has a crush on), Ichiro, and Pandaikon (a panda he found in his yard that resembles a daikon), they strive to make money any way they can, and in the process, rid the world of evil-doers and steal their money in the process.

In addition, the second half of The Heroic Legend of Arslan is now available on Blu-ray and DVD from Universal. The Collector's Edition includes a 100-page book (character profiles, background info, artwork), plus art cards, character cards and a poster. The series is based on a manga by Hiromu Arakawa (Fullmetal Alchemist, Silver Spoon), adapted from a novel series by Yoshiki Tanaka. Funimation described the story:

In the kingdom of Pars lies the Royal Capital of Ecbatana, a powerful city ruled by the fearsome King Andragoras. Arslan, the 14-year-old prince of Pars, is a green ruler and lacks the fierce leadership skills possessed by his father. After his father falls victim to a treacherous plot headed by one of his most trusted comrades, the kingdom of Pars falls in the war with the neighboring nation of Lusitania. Narrowly escaping with his life, Arslan must embark on a journey to reclaim the fallen kingdom and fulfill his destiny as ruler of Pars.
