Bubblegum Crisis
It’s been ten years since AnimEigo last released Bubblegum Crisis on home video with the DVD set that contained the main series run. Now with their Blu-ray Kickstarter full funded earlier this year, the production is fully underway and they’re going through some interesting weight tests, cost analysis and more for those that love the nitty gritty of production and how all of this gets made. They’ve also set the final date for the project for funding for those that want to get in on it still directly through them with June 1st, 2014.
That means – go here and add a set to help expand the whole production.
Series concept: Like a Phoenix, the city of MegaTokyo is rising from the ashes of a devastating earthquake. In the twisted canyons of the megalopolis, the Knight Sabers, a small band of high-tech mercenaries, fight a lonely battle against the evil GENOM corporation and its sinister android “Boomers”.
