The 2002 original Looking for the Full Moon has come to North America, in brand new English dub for the concluding episodes 27+52 in 1080p HD. Both the first half and second half are available from AnimEigo with a cardboard slipcover included for the Blu-ray set.

Produced by Studio Deen and adapted from the manga from shojo magazine Ribon, the series’ director Toshiyuki Kato would go on to direct for JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean, amongst many other creative endeavors. Creator Arina Tanemura’s manga series touched the hearts of many worldwide, and can continue its magic with AnimEigo’s restoration, as the series’ final half of episodes makes its way to North American audiences for the first time. This home installment includes newly dubbed content yet to be seen, and title-free opening and closing segments in the bonus features.
