Ushio & Tora fans who purchase all 13 home video releases of Ushio & Tora can apply to receive a 20cm (about 8in) Tora figure. Each Blu-ray volume costs 6,500-8,500 yen (US$59-77). Buying the entire series on Blu-ray would cost roughly 97,500 (US$883).
There are additional bonus items available for customers who buy the whole set. Amazon Japan will offer a storage box and digipak with new artwork by original creator Kazuhiro Fujita. Animate will bundle a B2-size wall scroll, Bunkyōdō will bundle a T-shirt, and 7 and I NetMedia will bundle an alarm clock.
Ushio & Tora premiered last July, but its 39-episode run was split into two seasons. The first season reached the 26th episode last December, and the second season began with the 27th episode on April. The anime's final episode will coincide with the manga's final battle.
Crunchyroll is streaming the second season as it airs in Japan.
Sentai Filmworks has licensed the series for home video in North America.
