There
is a secret world beyond the world we know, filled with inhuman
creatures and those who hunt them. Mirai Kuriyama is a Spirit World
Warrior, born from the cursed clan she can manipulate her blood into
anything and destroy 'Yoma'. Akihito Kanbara is an immortal
half-breed between human and Yoma. Both of them are feared and
shunned by their own kind. Under normal circumstances they were
fated to fight one another, but everyday, they go together to school,
and together can they prove they can go beyond the boundaries of
their world?
In
Beyond The Boundary: Complete Collection (2013), Mirai is a
bespectacled weepy girl who was born with the power to eliminate any
'Yoma', she is feared and resented by other Spirit World Warriors
Clans. She is sent to kill Akihito, an immortal still-is-human that
he suppress his 'Yoma' side, but the leaders of the Society of Spirit
World Warriors no only resents Akihito's immortality, but also fears
what his very existence could mean, that human and Yoma can co-exist
together. They take advantage of coming of the 'Calm', a period when
Yoma powers are weakened and they force Mirai to try and kill
Akihito. Both them are friends and have friends who are both human
and inhuman, but together can they protect each other from powers
that be, who would stop at nothing to prevent friendship between
human and Yoma?
The 'Yoma'/monsters of the world were born
through collective negative human emotions and energy such as hate,
rage, jealousy and can only been seen by Spirit World Warriors. It
is ironic when the humans when they seek to destroy something they
cause/created in the first place. It is poetic justice when
humankind is then destroyed then by what they created and even more
humiliating when they are saved by the very thing they tried to
destroy. It proves humans are no different (or better) than the
monsters they destroy.
The
1080p 1.78 X 1 digital High Definition image and lossless DTS-HD MA
(Master Audio) 2.0 Stereo (English and especially Japanese) sound are
nearly flawless throughout; the combination among Sentai's best.
Extras include Beyond the Boundary Idol Trailer, Japanese promos,
clean opening and closing animations, and trailers.
