New Details for the ‘upcoming’ UK Blu-ray and DVD release of Persona 4: The Animation have been recently revealed in Manga Entertainment UK’s latest podcast.
According to the podcast, which features Manga UK’s Head of Marketing & Acquisitions Jerome Mazandarani, he confirms that the UK Release of Persona 4: The Animation will be released in three seperate Blu-ray / DVD Combo Packs, with each pack having an estimated Retail price of £29.99. Volume 1 will be released on the 24th December 2012 and will feature 9 Episodes over two DVD’s and one Blu-ray Disc, while Volume 2 and Volume 3 will be released in the same style during Mid 2013.
Jerome also confirmed that the UK Release will feature the original Japanese audio track with English subtitles as well as the English Dubbed audio track.
Persona 4: The Animation is being licensed in the UK by Kaze Entertainment, however it is Manga Entertainment UK that will be distributing it in the UK – a similar approach was used for Samurai Girls & Black Lagoon Blu-rays. Persona 4: The Animation Volume 1 is now available to pre-order from a variety of online retailers and will be released on the 24th December 2012.
I checked most of the online retailer websites and they are charging more than the £29.99 RRP price listed.
