The fans have been abuzz about this little sleeper hit called Princess Jellyfish. A little while ago we announced that we had acquired the extras, which includes the animated mini specials Princess Jellyfish Heroes and the Go, Sisterhood Explorers! for our Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack release of Princess Jellyfish. These specials will be exclusive to the home video release.
Don't know what Princess Jellyfish is? Here's a short synopsis:
From the director of Durarara!! comes a thoughtful comedy on learning to look below the surface and finding the courage to rock the status quo.
Plain, timid and obsessed with jellyfish, Tsukimi is a far cry from her idea of a princess. Her tepid life as a jobless illustrator comes complete with roommates who harbor diehard hobbies that solidify their status as hopeless social rejects. These wallflowers run a tight nun-like ship, but their no-men-allowed-not-no-one-not-no-how bubble is unwittingly burst after Tsukimi brings home a rescued sea jelly and a beauty queen—who’s actually a guy. When threat of losing their cozy convent inspires this glamour boy to turn the neurotic entourage into a portrait of success, will Tsukimi take her chance to bloom or will she end up a hot mess?
And now finally, the question fans have been begging us to answer, who will be the English voice cast for this beloved title?
Well, we're going to tell you. (Actually, if you were an Elite Video Subscriber you'd already know because we announced this on the EVS forum first). Since this show is about geeks, we're going to also spotlight some of the main character geek obsessions. Look for Princess Jellyfish on Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack on February 28, 2012. Pre-order now!

Soo Super psyched for this! It sounds awesome!
I loved this show in Japanese know i'm going to love it in english i cant wait and know i finally have money to buy it XD
I absolutely love this show. I was a little worried about the dub, but from this preview it sounds great! I can't wait it to come out on dvd!
Super excited for this. It's a rare thing in anime for a series' characters be college aged, not conventionally attractive, and nerds for something other than anime.
The cast looks pretty good too. Nobody can deliver a history-nerd-rant like Monica Rial (see Renge in Ouran, for example).
take all my money, just take it.
