Amazon and CDJapan just added the Japanese Blu-ray Disc release of Studio Ghibli’s latest film The Borrower Arrietty (Karigurashi no Arrietty) to their stock!
The full specs haven’t been announced yet, but CDJapan tells us that the disc will include English, French and Japanese subtitles with the French, Korean, Mandarin and Cantonese dub next to the original Japanese audio track. The supposed release date is set for June 17th.
