Funimation Lists Concrete Revolutio Home Video Release With English Dub
posted on by Karen Ressler
Funimation is listing a Blu-ray Disc and DVD combo pack release for the Concrete Revolutio television anime series with an English dub. The release is slated for October 23.
The first season premiered in Japan in October 2015 and streamed on Daisuki and Funimation. The second half, Concrete Revolutio: The Last Song, premiered in April 2016. Funimation's home video release will include all 24 episodes.
Funimation describes the story:
What if superhumans were real? Even better, what if every fabled superhuman existed at the same time, in the same place? Titans from outer space, life forms from a mystical world, phantoms and goblins from ancient times, cyborgs created by scientists, relics that rose out of the ruins of ancient civilizations. In another Japan, it's not just a question of “what if”—it's a reality. Some of the superhumans choose to keep their identities a secret, while others bask in their superhuman fame. Jiro Hitoyoshi, member of the Superhuman Bureau, keeps track of their doings.
The anime reunited the main staff from Fullmetal Alchemist. Seiji Mizushima (Fullmetal Alchemist, Un-Go, Mobile Suit Gundam 00, Hanamaru Kindergarten) directed the series at BONES, and Shō Aikawa (Fullmetal Alchemist, Un-Go, Ghost Slayers Ayashi, Martian Successor Nadesico) was in charge of series composition. Masafumi Mima (Attack on Titan, Paprika) served as sound director. Kazuki Nakashima (Gurren Lagann, Kill la Kill, live-action Terraformars) joined Gen Urobuchi and Masaki Tsuji on writing scripts for the second season.
