Heroman's 2nd BD/DVD to Include Original Anime Short
posted on by Gia Manry
The second Blu-ray Disc and DVD volumes for Heroman television anime series will ship in Japan on September 22 with an exclusive original anime short called "Portent." The three-minute short is being specifically produced for Blu-ray and DVD, and it will present an "unseen new side" of the main characters Joey and Lina.
Volume 2 and later volumes will feature three television episodes each, rather than two episodes as the first volume will. Volume 3 will also include an animated music video of the ending theme song "Calling" and 24 pages of character and background designs.
Heroman's first Blu-Ray/DVD release in Japan is due August 18, with volumes 2 and 3 arriving on September 22 and October 20, respectively. The rest of the nine planned volumes will ship every month thereafter until April 2011.
