OUSTON, February 3, 2012— Sentai Filmworks is glad to announce its licensing of THE BOOK OF BANTORRA, the action-packed anime where the story of your life is a book - literally! Based on the light novels written by Ishio Yamagata and illustrated by Shigeki Maeshima, the 27 episode series is directed by Toshiya Shinohara (Black Butler, InuYasha movies) with character designs by Masaki Yamada (Tiger & Bunny, Appleseed: Ex Machina) and music by Yoshihisa Hirano (Death Note, Broken Blade).
In another time and place, on a world of pain and sorrow, when someone dies, their soul doesn't go to Heaven or Hell – it becomes a book. A book that reveals the deceased's innermost secrets… and can be read by anyone. Protecting these priceless treasures is the elite organization known as the Armed Librarians. It's their job to keep the books and the knowledge within them safe from those who would misuse or destroy them. It's a tough, dangerous job, so Chief Librarian Hamyuts Maseta recruits only the best and the brightest psychics to join her team of expert fighters. But will they be good enough to stop the fanatics of the Church of Drowning in God's Grace from wrecking vengeance on the entire world? Only time will tell, but that book hasn't been written yet. Welcome to the Library of Bantorra, where the past is an open book.
THE BOOK OF BANTORRA will soon be avail able digitally through multiple outlets, with a home video release on bilingual DVD scheduled for later this year.
