Pony Canyon is working through their summer series shows with distribution plans and the latest one to get some exposure is Rozen Maiden Zurückspulen. The new series, which has been licensed in North America by Sentai Filmworks, will be getting a seven volume DVD and Blu-ray release starting on August 30th, 2013. The first volumes are cheaper since there’s only one episode to it, and come in on DVD and Blu-ray at 3150 yen and 3675 yen respectively. The subsequent six volumes will arrive at 5565 yen and 6615 yen respectively for formats as well.
As of this writing, there are some known extras for the first press edition of the first volume, which includes a special box drawn by PEACH-PIT. On disc extras include an audio commentary track while other packs include an end car pinup, a twelve page booklet and a special clear case.
Plot concept: Time is a strange thing. In every moment, there are fleeting circumstances of opportunity, which if taken, can completely change the course of one’s life. And there are those who postulate that not only is each of these chains of events possible, but that there are parallel worlds where those events HAVE taken place. Which brings us to the story of Jun Sakurada… a Jun who chose NOT to turn the key in the back of the lifelike doll that mysteriously arrived at his house. A Jun who DIDN’T enter into a contract with the Rozen Maiden known as Shinku, and never met any of the other Rozen Maidens. Or, should we say, hasn’t met them YET. Because just as certain opportunities exist for only a moment, there are also threads of fate so strong that the very fabric universe can turn itself inside out in order to make them happen. One of which is the thread connecting Jun and Shinku. The events of the original ROZEN MAIDEN are rewritten, and the destiny of the characters rewound as a once lost spark is rekindled in ROZEN MAIDEN ~ ZURÜCKSPULEN!
