Aniplex USA will be offering a limited quantity of The Garden of Sinners (Kara no Kyokai) Blu-ray collection on sale at Rightstuf. The set contains all 7 movies originally aired in theaters in Japan including a special bonus chapter included in an 8th disc. Apparently this is a direct import from the Japanese edition but will include English subtitles and a separate booklet in English with all the translations for the included artbook. Hardcore fans will be pleased to note they will be able to purchase the collection at a discounted $398.98 opposed to the 52,200 yen (roughly $638 USD as of this post) price tag in Japan.

The Garden of Sinners was originally a light novel written by Kinoko Nasu and illustrated by Takashi Takeuchi. Both men are probably best known for forming the visual novel game company Type-Moon which produced the popular Fate/stay night series.
