Samurai Deeper Kyo is a DVD series based on the manga series by Akimine Kamijyo which is set to be released in July 2009. Set in the 1600s, the Volume 1 DVD includes the first 7 episodes of the 26 that have been on TV. The story is about two characters by the name of Demon Eyes Kyo and Kyoshiro and they embark on an epic sword fighting tale. The battle of Sekigahara in which Kyoshiro and Demon Eyes Kyo duel is the opening scene of the first episode. During the battle, a falling star crashes into the plains and consumes both Kyoshiro and Demon Eyes Kyo ending the duel in a massive cloud of debris.
Moving forward 4 years in time, the plot then turns to a young female bounty hunter by the name of Yuya. Yuya has been looking for Demon Eyes Kyo for all this time but eventually finds Kyoshiro instead. He is now a medicine man and has no memory of his life as a deadly warrior.
As Yuya takes Kyoshiro into custody, a fierce snake monster attacks them both and Kyoshiro being the kind hearted man he's turned into tries to help Yuya and joins the fight, only to discover that he has the soul of Demon Eyes Kyo inside him and wins the fight with his powers and saves Yuya.
From that moment on, every time Kyoshiro enters a battle, the fury of Demon Eyes Kyo is awakened inside him. It turns out that Demon Eyes Kyo is now looking to find his earthly body to return his soul to it's rightful place.
The story of Samurari Deeper Kyo embarks on many twists and turns in the plot and is full of epic sword fights and wonderous fantasy tales. With the looming release of the UK DVD, British audiences will be able to enjoy this story on their screens whenever they like. The Samuari Deeper story has also been released as a game on Gameboy Advance and Nintendo DS - both of which have been very successful.
Future releases are expected, but as of now, dates are unknown. I, like many other anime fans, have been eagerly awaiting this release. Directed by Junji Nishimura (Ranma ), we can expect an all round good interpretation of the original manga which collected over 38 volumes.
If you're interested in this release, you'll be pleased to hear that there's not long to wait - Samurai Deeper Kyo Volume 1 will be released on DVD by MVM on 13th July 2009 and will be priced at 15.99. - 23812
