Theatrical DVD release date confirmed…
The news of the DVD was out a couple of days ago, but an actual date of September 21st was only revealed with the 48th volume of Dengeki hp by various sources. Other news includes an illustration collection by Noizi Ito to be released on August 9th, which is likely going to be similar to her last release with 『紅蓮』. For the second season, it seems that they’re going to bring Mea to the scene. This is quite a curveball and could very well invalidate my predictions about the series ending with the light novel line. The novelization of the tenth novel was also brought up, but that’s old news anyway.
My oh my do I have a ton of stuff to buy. Right now, I’m looking at the third manga, the first manga of sola to be released next month, GARNET CROW’s concert DVD later this month, a new single of theirs next month, and the movie DVD in September. The artbook? Well, I don’t know. If I do I might as well pick up 『紅蓮』 while I’m at it (since I don’t actually own it). It’s hard to say. I mean, if sola proves itself to be the cure for cancer it’s shaping up to be, I may be tempted to buy that series on DVD which will surely drain my financial resources. It’s a make or break, really. Either it goes into my annals of great Japanese animation series like AIR, or it’s going to drop the ball on me like Kyoto Animation’s Kanon remake did. I don’t see much room for any middle ground here, folks.
