NIS America has made a new license announcement that will be landing quickly as they’ve picked up the rights to Fusé – Memoirs of a Huntress, which will see release in premium edition form on May 6th, 2014. The nearly two hour feature is getting the full premium edition mode from NIS America as there will be the heavy oversized chipboard box that will contain the disc and a beautiful hardcover book that goes into the feature. On disc extras at this point are listed as just Japanese commercials. The release will be a Blu-ray only release priced at $49.99 with the original Japanese language only with English subtitles.
Plot concept: Hamaji, a young huntress from the mountains, stumbles into the middle of a shogun’s vendetta against a group of human and dog hybrids, the Fusé. Rumors of Fusé murdering innocent people in the bustling city of Edo have sparked a bounty for their heads. Along with her brother, Hamaji joins the hunt for this dangerous quarry, but after accidentally befriending one of them, Hamaji is torn between two worlds: her life as a self-reliant huntress, and the young woman her new friend has helped her to uncover.
