A new listing on the AllTheAnime Store, as well as a social post last week, has revealed that Anime Limited are planning to release Babylon, a 12 episode anime series based upon the Japanese suspense thriller novel series by Mado Nozaki, as a Collector’s Edition Blu-Ray on 8th July 2024.
Babylon was originally streamed on Amazon Prime Video for Amazon Prime subscribers (and still is), but from next month it will be available on Blu-Ray in Collector’s Edition form.

SRP: £69.99 | 12 Episodes – 2 Discs | English & Japanese Audio (with English subtitles)
As shown from the beauty shot above, the Collector’s Edition of Babylon will feature 2 Blu-Ray discs that will be inside a standard amary case that slides into a rigid art box. Alongside this fans will find a 20-page booklet featuring artwork and screenshots from the series as well as 4 art cards.
Synopsis: Everything can be connected to something else if you dig hard enough, and when you’re investigating a crime, it usually doesn’t take too long before you start finding the clues you need, if you know where to look. When Public Prosecutor Zen Seizaki starts investigating a case of apparent fraud by a major pharmaceutical company, however, he quickly finds himself entangled in a nightmarish web of lies, intrigue and murder on a global scale. And even worse, how can he fight a foe without a face, one that’s protected by members of the highest echelons of society and government, and seems to be able to convince its own victims to kill themselves? The nightmares of modern science are powered by old-fashioned corruption and greed, and one man may be the only force that can stop them in BABYLON.
Babylon is currently available to pre-order from the AllTheAnime Store, and is also available for a limited time as an early bird pre-order offer, with the release set for 8th July 2024. In the meantime, Amazon Prime subscribers can stream Babylon on Amazon Prime Video.
