Shout! Factory and Eleven Arts Anime Studio Present Liz and the Blue Bird on Blu-ray + DVD Combo Pack, DVD & Digital March 5, 2019
Los Angeles, CA – The stunning anime feature Sound! Euphonium by Ayano Takenda and is considered a side sequel to the anime series of the same name.
Mizore Yoroizuka plays the oboe, and Nozomi Kasaki plays the flute in Kita Uji High School's concert band. Mizore is shy and soft-spoken, while her best friend, Nozomi, is outgoing. The two girls grow closer as they practice for their last duet before graduating, a piece called “Liz and the Blue Bird.” However, the impending separation may be more than their friendship can handle. Interspersed with their story is the fantasy tale of Liz, who like Mizore, seeks a friendship that may be too hard to hold onto in this beautiful coming-of-age story.
