Unboxing [US]: Hyperdimension Neptunia - Complete Series: Limited Edition (BD/DVD)

Nep Nep and co. returned for an anime adaptation of the games, now it's finally on Blu-ray. Here's an overview of Funimation's newest release so far.


Hyperdimension Neptunia is an anime adaptation of the popular video game series with the same name. Neptunia parodies the current video game console war and adds numerous video game references and puns such as having Lastation, Lowee and Leanbox be based on Sony's Playstation, Nintendo's Wii and Microsoft's Xbox. The games were great and to have an anime is a nice treat for the fans of the JRPG series.

This release was handled by Funimation and it's the limited edition version which features a chipboard box and two slim Blu-ray cases. The on-disc content features the entire 12 episode series, the 13th episode (an unaired OVA) and additional extra content like textless songs and simple Funimation additions. Subtitles are locked and the discs are locked to region A and 1 only.

Plot Synopsis (via Funimation):
Don’t miss this epic adventure based on a video game about video games that Fandom Post calls ''the most perfect adaptation of game to anime ever created!''

Welcome to Gamindustri, a fantastical world where all your favorite video game consoles come to life! Neptune and her fellow Goddesses rule the four kingdoms of Lastation, Leanbox, Lowee, and Planeptune – but their royal duties often take a backseat to their obsession with gaming. When their button-mashing shenanigans are interrupted by rampaging monsters, hacker attacks, and killer eggplants, the goddesses must transform into stronger, sexier versions of themselves and fight for their right to game! The bosses get tougher as the game goes on, and the girls will have to work together in order to defeat a bewitching goddess of piracy, an anonymous master hacker, and an evil CPU hell-bent on destroying everything in her path – using any cheat code necessary!
