Fans of Mari Yamazaki, who put out some really strong works with
Thermae Romae several years ago, has been working through her latest project with
Olympia Kyklos. The series saw an April 20th, 2020 debut on Tokyo MX and Crunchyroll and it had some delays because of COVID but kept airing even as the Olympics were pushed off to this year. Now, with the Olympics underway, it’s now coming out for a home video release. It looks like it’s just the show itself on the DVD with new on-disc extras priced at 3,960 yen and out TODAY in Japan.
The series is directed by Ryo Fujii who is also supervising the scripts and working on them with Atsushi Tsuboi and Takeshi Takemura.
