North American video game and anime distributor NIS America announced on Tuesday that it will release The Troubled Life of Miss Kotoura (Kotoura-san) television anime series in an English-subtitled Blu-ray Disc Complete Premium Edition on August 4.

Takashi Aoshima (Minami-ke, Mitsudomoe, Yuruyuri) was in charge of the series scripts, while Takaharu Okuma (Mitsudomoe, Hanaukyo Maid-tai) served as the character designer and chief animation director.
