Anime Limited will also release a Collector's Blu-ray edition of the 2021 film Hula Fulla Dance. The story is described as following:

"Hiwa Natsunagi is a high school student living in Spa Resort Hawaiians - the "Hawaii of Tohoku", a place where her sister used to work - and applies to their hula dancer campaign on a whim. Despite her lack of experience, Hiwa is accepted for the job, and starts on the path towards becoming a Hula Girl with her classmates Kanna, Ranko, 'Ohana and Shion."

The same hotel in Iwaki City, Fukushima was also the setting for the popular 2006 film Hula Girls. Iwaki is also the setting for Hulaing Babies anime, which is similarly centered on hula dancing.

The anime, which is set in the Fukushima Prefecture, is one of three anime projects that are part of the larger "Zutto Ōen Project 2011 + 10..." initiative aimed at promoting Miyagi, Iwate, and Fukushima. (The other two anime projects are Misaki no Mayoiga.) The "Zutto Ōen Project 2011 + 10..." is in remembrance of the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami 10 years ago.

The value of Carne village and especially the political value of his alter ego Momon are reaffirmed. The “hidden” genius of his actions is continuously met with shock and awe by Demiurge, Albedo, the rest of his guardians, and even Ains himself at his “great wisdom.” His attempts to act in a way befitting the ruler of Nazarick, continuing to further cement his guardian's loyalty, push him ever further down the path of not-so-intentional world domination.

Anime Limited will also release a standard Blu-ray edition of Mawaru Penguindrum.
