Kyoto Animation's Sparks of Tomorrow Sets Blu-ray and DVD Release for October 28 and November 25
Pre-orders are open for a two volume home video release that splits the 13 episode series in half, with commentaries and textless songs on the Blu-ray editions.
What was announced
The official X account for Kyoto Animation's Sparks of Tomorrow, known in Japan as Nijusseiki Denki Mokuroku: Eureka Evrika, opened pre-orders for the series' home video release on July 26. The release is split across two volumes, with the first arriving on October 28, 2026 and the second on November 25, 2026.
The series' official site lists both. Volume one collects episodes 1 through 6 and volume two collects episodes 7 through 13, together covering the full run. Each volume is priced at 19,800 yen including tax on Blu-ray and 17,600 yen including tax on DVD. The official listings credit Kyoto Animation and the Meiji Denki Shokokai production committee as the publisher, with Pony Canyon handling distribution.
What is on the discs
Every edition of both volumes ships in a newly drawn digipak with a special slipcase and a booklet, per the official product listings. The Blu-ray editions carry extras the DVD editions do not. Volume one adds cast and staff commentaries alongside textless opening and ending sequences and a compilation of the promotional videos and commercials. Volume two repeats the cast and staff commentaries and the PV and CM compilation. Both volumes include barrier free Japanese subtitles, and the site notes that contents may change without notice.
The split is a clean one for a single cour show. Six episodes on the first disc and seven on the second means neither volume asks buyers to wait on a stray episode, and the textless songs landing on the earlier volume is the usual arrangement for a series whose opening and ending are already out in full.
Where the series stands
Sparks of Tomorrow began airing on July 5, 2026 and runs 13 episodes. It is a drama set in an alternate past, where an unlikely duo team up to look for a missing catalog that could bring electricity to the smoke filled streets of Kyoto.
The broadcast is still in progress. Episode 4, titled The Daughter of Faith, went out on July 26, with the official account listing a 23:00 start on TOKYO MX and a 23:30 slot on BS11. The same account confirms the series streams worldwide exclusively on Netflix, also from 23:00, so viewers outside Japan can catch up well before the first volume ships in late October.
That leaves a long gap between the end of the broadcast and the discs, which is normal for a Kyoto Animation release of this size. What the announcement settles is the shape of the package: two volumes, full series coverage, and a commentary track for anyone who wants to hear the cast and staff talk through the show once the run is over.
