One
month ago, Illya and Miyu became magical girls and were tasked with
collecting magic cards imbued with the heroic spirits. After saving
the world, you would think they would get a break. But it turns out
not everything was fixed, after fixing certain ley lines Illya has to
deal with a troublesome side effect, a Kuro (dark) version of herself
in Fate/Kaleid Liner: Prisma Illya 2wei! (2014).
It's
tough being a normal Japanese schoolgirl on top of also being a
magical girl, even more so when Illya find she has Kuro (dark)
version of herself running around with ALL her powers. Kuro
represents Illya's unspoken and secret desires, include Shirou,
Illya's brother (not related by blood). As Kuro wrecks havoc on
Illya's school and romance life, new adventures appear for Illya and
her friends.
Based on the Fate Stay Night series, which

...Prisma
Illya 2wei is like a comic parody with magical girls and romance.
It makes fun of all the stereotypes of 'magical girls' mixed with
fan-service and schoolgirl fantasies.
The
outstanding 1080p 1.78 X 1 digital High Definition image on all the
episodes stuns across both discs and is among Sentai's best, while
the lossless DTS-HD MA (Master Audio) 2.0 Japanese Stereo plays
better than the English version and is pretty dynamic throughout,
both having Pro Logic-like surrounds you can try out despite being
warm and full on its 2-channel own. Extras include shorts, TV spots,
clean opening and closing animations and trailers.
