Good news for anime fans as we’ve
just got word that
DISGAEA VOL.1: THE NETHERWORLD PRINCE has now arrived on DVD.
The story behind DISGAEA is that the
King of the Netherworld has died and various demons are now building their own
empires in an effort to take control. However, the late King’s son has arrived
and is out to reclaim his rightful place as ruler of the Netherworld! Along to
help him is his vassal; Etna with her Prinny squad, and Flonne, an
angel-in-training originally sent to assassinate the king only to find that he
has already died. Join our three intrepid, and somewhat eccentric, heroes as
they initiate their plan to conquer the Netherworld, Heaven and Earth!
And even though it’s not mentioned in the synopsis provided, there are some
demonic penguins (seen above) which are also somehow involved. I haven’t seen
this one myself, but will definitely be hitting up Rogers Video on January 9th
to check it out.
