A “masterpiece that shows the true potential of anime as an international art form” - Anime News Network.
A historical drama set in late 19th-century London, the series chronicles the love story – and the complications that result – when Emma, an honest and hardworking young maid, and William, an earnest suitor and member of the “gentry” class, fall for each other.
Spanning a total of 24 episodes between the two seasons, this anime adaptation of Kaoru Mori's manga features direction by Tsuneo Kobayashi (The Twelve Kingdoms, Glass Mask OAV, Super GALS!) and scripting by Mamiko Ikeda (Sgt. Frog, Fruits Basket, Princess Tutu). The original manga was honored with an Excellence Prize at the 2005 Japan Media Arts Festival and is available to North American readers via DC Comics' CMX Manga imprint.
As previously announced, EMMA will be released as two “season” box sets with Japanese audio and English-language subtitles:
· The initial box set release, scheduled for June 24, 2008, will contain the 12-episode first season in its entirety; and
· The second box set (TBA) will include the 12 episodes of the series' “Second Act,” plus “Episode 0: Intermission,” a recap/preview that aired prior to the start of the Season 2 telecast in Japan.
About EMMA: A VICTORIAN ROMANCE – Season 1
