Paranoia Agent Will Be Released on Blu-ray

posted on by Andrew Osmond
Satoshi Kon's TV series was first broadcast in 2004.

MVM has Tweeted that it will release Satoshi Kon's TV series Paranoia Agent on Blu-ray.

The series had a DVD release from MVM from 2005, in four volumes. Subsequent collected DVD editions from MVM are still available.

The 13-episode television anime series premiered in Japan in February 2004. Genon Entertainment describes the anime:

When the darkness overcomes the heart, Lil' Slugger appears..."
After the first victim's story, the police felt the overly stressed woman was having a breakdown and lied to cover-up for some crime. However, after the third and fourth attacks upon unrelated victims led to the same description of a young attacker with a golden baseball bat and in-line skates, the police had to wonder - is the "Lil' Slugger" real or some kind of sinister phantom?

Satoshi Kon directed the series at Madhouse, and Kon is also credited with the original work. Seishi Minakami and Tomomi Yoshino wrote the scripts, and frequent Kon collaborator Susumu Hirasawa composed the music.
