Seirei Gensouki: Spirit Chronicles Blu-ray Box 2

Past and present lives intersect in this fantasy of reincarnation into another world. The hit fantasy comes to animation at last! Rio aims to become the strongest in order to fulfil his revenge, and a succession of encounters accelerates his destiny. A grand story unfolds as his previous and current lives cross. A boy carrying two sets of memories confronts his fate.

Orphaned after his mother was murdered when he was young, Rio struggles desperately to survive in the slums. One day, the memories of Haruto Amakawa, who died in an accident while dreaming of a reunion with his childhood friend, and tremendous magical power awaken within Rio. He realises he has been reincarnated in another world of swords and magic.

After contributing to the resolution of a princess's kidnapping, which he happens to encounter, he enters a prestigious academy attended by the children of the nobility. Climbing from the very bottom of this class-based society, Rio breaks through his harsh destiny through repeated meetings and farewells.
