Code:Breaker
With FUNimation having revealed the cast for Code:Breaker last weekend at SakuraCon and debuting it a bit, they’ve now put out a new 90 second trailer to show off the cast and the tone of the series with how they’re working it. The thirteen episode series is slated for a June 24th, 2014 release on DVD/BD combo. The original manga series comes from creator Akimine Kamijyo with the anime adaptation directed by Yasuhiro Irie for studio Kinema Citrus. The manga series began back in 2008 and completed in 2013 with at total of twenty-six volumes.
Extras include Actor Commentaries, Japanese Commercials, Promo Videos, TV Spots and Textless Songs.
Directed by Colleen Clinkenbeard, it stars Jackie Ross, Micah Solusod, Jād Saxton, Aaron Roberts, Lydia Mackay, Ben Phillips, David Matranga, Todd Haberkorn, Sonny Strait, Jerry Jewell, Morgan Garrett, Cherami Leigh, Eric Vale, Jessica Cavanagh and J. Michael Tatum.
Plot concept: Rei Ogami doesn’t have a problem with killing. As a Code:Breaker—a super-powered assassin employed by a secret government organization—he works outside of the law, existing in the gray area between right and wrong. When Rei gets an assignment, criminals are cremated in a blaze of blue fire. That is, until a classmate named Sakura witnesses his fatal flames in action and makes it her mission to keep him from killing again.
As Sakura becomes entrenched in Rei’s world of cruelty, mayhem, and violence, the line between good and evil begins to blur. When another Code:Breaker goes rogue and the remaining assassins assemble, murder might be the only way to make things right.
