Unboxing: Black Lagoon: Roberta’s Blood Trail – Complete OVA Series (Blu-ray) [UK]

The UK Blu-ray release of Black Lagoon: Roberta’s Blood Trail has been out for awhile, and we even reviewed the collection just before it came out, but now that we’ve got our hands on a psyhical boxed copy i’ve decided to do, belatently, an unboxing of it.

For starters in case you didn’t know Black Lagoon: Roberta’s Blood Trail is 5 Episode OVA Series that continues where the original TV Series left off, whereby the main cast (Rock, Benny, Revy etc) are working at the Lagoon Company; however when Roberta’s master gets killed she goes on a rampage across the globe and it’s now up to the Lagoon Company to put a stop to it. It’s an action packed series filled with gunfights, violence and racial slurs – but its all in the name of fun so its all good.

It’s been confirmed that KAZE’s upcoming Blu-ray and DVD release of Black Lagoon: Roberta’s Blood Trail, which is a continuation of the Black Lagoon franchise, has now been delayed and will be released on the 2nd December 2013.

We have today received word that the upcoming Manga Entertainment title Black Lagoon: Roberta’s Blood Trail on DVD and Blu-ray has had its release date amended and will now be available from 2nd December.

There is no word why the release date has been changed (again), especially since our review sample has already arrived (yet again in retail form with no box). In meantime the MangaUK Twitter account has tweeted the following to make sure people are aware of its delay:

In the flash of a muzzle, she goes from maid to murderer on a pill-popping, crimson stained quest for vengeance. When Revy and the gang are hired to stop Roberta’s killing spree, they quickly find themselves in the middle of an international shootout starring everyone from the KGB to the CIA. The bullets are flying, the bodies are piling up in the street, and Roberta’s painting the town red – with blood.
