Marvel Disk Wars – The Avengers
With Marvel having had some decent luck so far with some of their anime properties in Japan, which have been brought here for the most part, it’s not a surprise that along with Disney and the Bandai that they’ll find a way to make a new game and anime series together. Previously announced, we now have our first promo for the game and anime. The anime promo comes first and clocks in at about 90 seconds while showing off the various character design adaptations, which skew simpler and younger than the four TV series we got previously or the Iron Man: Technovore movie, while the remainder of the promo shows you how to actually play the game. The series is set for a spring 2014 debut on April 2nd in a prime spot of 6:30pm in Japan.
Plot concept: Portable capturing devices known as “DISKs” were developed to capture evil villains. However, thanks to Loki’s machinations, both villains and heroes are sealed up in these Disks and scattered around the world. Amid the chaos, five youths obtained the power to restore these DISK-sealed heroes through a program called “Biocode.” These youths received five DISKs that Spider-Man, who narrowly escaped being sealed himself, retrieved. Thus, these five can restore Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, and Wasp — the Avengers!
