BLOOD TO FLOW!
MVM will be kicking off
their summer releases with the first volume of Trinity Blood in
July. Set in the distant future after the destruction brought
about by an Armageddon. The war between vampires and humans
continue to persist. In order to protect the humans from the
vampires, The Vatican has to rely on other allies to counter the
situation. The protagonist, a priest called Peter Abel Nightroad,
travels through the countries as a representative for The Vaticans.
However, he is also part of "Ax", a special operations group controlled
by the Cardinal Catherina. His encounter with a young girl called
Esther will determine the struggle and survival between the human race
and the vampires.
SUPERNATURAL PHENOMENON!
Also due out next year from MVM is the highly anticipated
supernatural anime series Ergo Proxy. In a future where the
world has been ravaged by a nuclear apocalypse, there exists salvation
in a domed city named "Romdeau", where humans and their android
servants, the autoreivs, live in. Under the implementation of
complete management control, it is a paradise where feelings are
literally discarded, and the governing council dictates the way of life
the citizens should live. But this utopian landscape is soon
broken by a series of mystifying murders…
FELINE ADVENTURES!
MVM have also added the eagerly awaited Black Cat to
their acquisitions. Train Heartnet is known as the Black Cat
for his quick reactions to attacks and his title as Number Thirteen as
member of the secret society Chronos. He is an unbeatable master
gunman, a cold and unfeeling killer until he meets Saya, a bounty
hunter, or "sweeper". She teaches him the value of a human life,
and that one should live in order to repent for one's mistakes rather
than die because of them. Through her, Train learns to love and
care for other people as he too becomes a sweeper and travels with his
partner Sven and the mysterious girl Eve.
GO BERSERK FOR MVM!
Guts known as the Black Swordsman, seeks sanctuary from the demonic
forces that pursue himself and his woman, and also vengeance against the
man who branded him as an unholy sacrifice. Aided only by his
titanic strength, skill and sword, Guts must struggle against his bleak
destiny, all the while fighting with a rage that might strip him of his
humanity. Berserk is a dark and brooding story of
outrageous swordplay and ominous fate, in the theme of Shakespeare's
MacBeth.

The rest of 2007 will see MVM releasing some of the most
eagerly anticipated anime box sets ever! Look out for gory
Gantz and the wild west extravaganza that is Trigun!
