Working for a small independent agency, Shiki attempts to unravel the baffling mystery behind a series of abnormal, horrifying incidents, but do they foreshadow something even more tragic and ominous?

Adapted from the light novel series by Oreimo author Tsukasa Fushimi, MVM Entertainment also revealed plans to release the romantic comedy series Eromanga Sensei on Blu-ray, with Part 1 (Episodes 1-6) releasing exclusively on the format on 2nd September 2019.

His cute little shut-in of a sister, who has been living under his roof, is using an obscene pen name and drawing lewd illustrations. But there’s no way his little sister could be this dirty?!

Continuing their commitment to the ever-popular Fate franchise, MVM have also confirmed plans to release Fate/Apocrypha Part 1 on 30th September, compiling the first 12 episodes of A-1 Pictures’ series. The series is currently available for streaming on Netflix.

The Mage’s Association gathers the Red Faction in order to thwart such ambitions.

Bringing another light novel adaptation to our shores, the company will also be releasing a high school fantasy battle anime from the studio behind Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya, Chivalry of a Failed Knight. The 2015 series will be released as a complete Blu-ray collection on 26th August 2019.

Ikki Kurogane may have come from a long line of Blazers, people with the ability to create weapons or devices manifested from their souls, but as far as the Hagun Academy is concerned, he’s been a major disappointment in the magical powers department. He is so disappointing, in fact, that he’s earned the unfortunate nickname of the “Worst One”. However, things change for Ikki in the most surprising way when Princess Stella Vermillion, the most promising Rank-A Blazer to come along in many years, decides to transfer to Hagun. When she challenges him to a duel where the loser must obey the winner for the rest of their life, the last thing anyone expects is that the Worst One might prove to be a match for the Crimson Princess… and the unforeseen consequences will push the boundaries of society itself!

Previously released on Blu-ray by MVM in 2017, the ’90s iconic dark fantasy anime Berserk will be re-released as a Steelbook collection on 9th September.

Other new additions to the distributor’s Q3 2019 slate include the supernatural comedy Devils and Realists, with the 2013 anime by Doga Koba (Himouto! Umaru-chan) releasing on 23rd September and J.C. Staff’s historical harem Dai-Shogun on 19th August.
