Sentai Filmworks will release School-Live! on June 27. The series will ship on DVD and Blu-Ray, as well as a deluxe Premium Edition.
School-Live!, which is based on Norimitsu Kaiho and Sadoru Chiba’s manga of the same name, originally aired during the Summer broadcast season. Masaomi Ando (Scum’s Wish, Muv-Luv Alternative: Total Eclipse) directed the project at Lerche, with Haruko Iizuka (Little Busters!, Tamayura) providing character designs. Co-creator Norimitsu Kaiho (Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope’s Peak High School: Despair Arc, Gunslinger Stratos: The Animation) was in charge of series composition.
Crunchyroll streamed the show on their digital platform as it aired. Sentai Filmworks describes School-Live! as:
Why would anyone form a School Living Club? Could four girls, their advisor, and a puppy really love their school so much that they’d want to live in it? Or is there another reason, something that lurks behind the façade of their comfortable existence? Something that waits outside their school’s doors. Something that has already robbed one girl of her sanity? While the others try to come to grips with a dark new reality, the rest of the world falls to ruin at the hands of a ravenous force, and insanity may be the last hope for survival. Shocks, heartbreak and stunning revelations await as the as the twisted tale unfolds in SCHOOL-LIVE!
