Amazon UK lists a single-disc Resurrection ‘F’ DVD and Blu-ray release alongside a Resurrection ‘F’ & Battle of Gods DVD and Blu-ray combo-pack release coming 26 October 2015.
FUNimation has not yet announced a home release for Resurrection ‘F’, which hits American theaters for a short run next week, followed by a UK theatrical run in September. FUNimation’s American home release for Battle of Gods hit roughly two months after its theatrical screening; Manga UK’s Battle of Gods listings also popped up ahead of FUNimation’s.
Japan will receive their Revival of “F” home release on DVD and Blu-ray 07 October 2015.
The story for Resurrection ‘F’ (Revival of “F”), which opened nationwide in Japan 18 April 2015 in 2D and IMAX 3D, was crafted by original manga author Akira Toriyama, who stated he wrote it, “…as though it were a continuation of the manga when it was in serialization,” and that while it would, “…of course be a continuation of the previous Battle of Gods,” he has also, “…deliberately increased the amount of action scenes by a good deal.” Tadayoshi Yamamuro, who worked for many years as character designer and animation supervisor on the Dragon Ball franchise, served as the film’s director and animation supervisor. Norihito Sumitomo has returned from Battle of Gods and the Majin Boo arc of Dragon Ball Kai for musical composition duties. Momoiro Clover Z contributed “Vow of ‘Z'” as the film’s main theme alongside Maximum the Hormone, whose “F” is used during the film. Revival of “F” brings back Freeza and includes two new characters (Sorbet and Tagoma), features Beerus and Whis again from Battle of Gods, and much more. The film has been announced for distribution in 74 countries.
