Sentai Filmworks Acquire Rights to Wizard Barristers Anime Series

-

North American anime publisher Sentai Filmworks have continued their recent spate of anime acquisition announcements by confirming their plans for Wizard Barristers (Wizard Barristers: Benmashi Cecil // ウィザード・バリスターズ〜弁魔士セシル), a twelve episode anime-exclusive series currently being produced by animation studio Arms. This action thriller features direction by Yasuomi Umetsu and script writing by Michiko Itou.

Wizard Barristers will be available through the usual digital distribution channels soon if not available already, and will have a home video release sometime in the unspecified future (Most likely 2015).

When the laws of magic are broken, someone’s got to enforce them, and that duty falls to the deadly men and women of the Police Department’s Section 1.  However, even the most malevolent mage has a right to a fair trial, and defending those craven mavens and nefarious necromancers in court is the job of the Benmashi, the Wizard Barristers.  It’s a tricky profession, requiring both arcane ability and a judicious sense of jurisprudence, and at just 17, Cecil Sudo is not only the youngest Benmashi at the Butterfly Law Offices, she’s the youngest one ever!  That won’t stop her in her duty to defend the alleged adepts and prestidigitating perps, but it’s going to mean long hours burning the midnight brimstone, summoning up summaries, parsing phrases with paranormal paralegals and cutting deals with opposing counsels from hell.  And when a young Benmashi starts to discover that her OWN potential to charm is more magical than she realized, there’ll be hex-tra incentive to start working wonders outside the courtroom as well as in it!  Prepare to be beguiled as the most enchantingly Adept Attorney ever makes her case in WIZARD BARRISTERS!
