Anime distributor AnimEigo and parent company MediaOCD have announced the highly anticipated home media Blu-ray release of Vampire Princess Miyu on September 8th.
A groundbreaking 4-part OVA series from director Toshihiro Hirano (Magic Knights Rayearth) and screenwriter Noboru Aikawa (Fullmetal Alchemist, The Twelve Kingdoms), Vampire Princess Miyu was originally released in Japan in 1988 and went on to give Western anime fans their first taste of anime supernatural horror.
Miyu appears to be a beautiful, doll-like young girl with a mysterious aura. But when the spiritualist Himiko confronts her after a series of vampire attacks, she reveals that she is not just a vampire, but royalty – and locked in a vicious war with the demonic Shinma. In exchange for the truth, Himiko must lend a hand, across time and space.
AnimEigo and MediaOCD are proud to bring back this OVA to North American audiences and in a remastered HD edition that features U.S. and UK dubs. Due to difficulties with artwork approvals, Vampire Princess Miyu will be released with a blank cover, an industry first. Pre-orders are now open for a limited time only, and exclusively from the MediaOCD web store. SRP is $24.95.
