Houston-based anime distributor Section23 Films and Sentai Filmworks have detailed the
Complete Collection Blu-ray release of
Okamikakushi: Masque of the Wolf Produced by Studio AIC and directed by Nobuhiro Takamoto, the 12-episode anime streets on December 9th.
Synopsis: From the moment Hiroshi and his family arrive in Jouga, he senses something odd about the isolated village. It's not that the people are cold and aloof; except for his beautiful class president, Nemuru, most welcome him quite warmly. But some also simply disappear. Students transfer out of his school without any notice, and Hiroshi's next door neighbor Isuzu, who seems quite infatuated with him, warns him to stay away from the old part of town. The upcoming Haasaku Festival, which celebrates the town's unique oranges, seems to be generating an unusual level of concern, and groups of masked people roam the streets by night, hunting... something.
Could the legends of man-sized wolves roaming the mountains surrounding Jouga be real? Who is the girl with the scythe? What is the real purpose of the festival? And how does this all revolve around something called a Temptation? Hiroshi and his new circle of friends have little time to solve these riddles before the answers will become far more dangerous and personal than he could ever imagine.
The Blu-ray release of
Okamikakushi: Masque of the Wolf features 1080p video, lossless Japanese audio and English subtitles. (No English dub is available.) Extras include:
- Clean Opening Animation
