Viz announces 5/99 releases

In their regular monthly press release, Viz announced their continuation of Kia Asamiya's Silent Möbius series with "Into the Labyrinth," a new never-before-translated story serialized into six issues of 32 pages. The story arc follows Katsumi and the A. M. P. as they repel a spy that looks into more than what can be seen by humans.

Viz also announced the Ranma 1/2 Hard Battle boxed set, compiling all twelve volumes of the dubbed second season of the Ranma 1/2 Nettohen TV series. The box will feature over 600 minutes of animation as well as a bonus CD and retail for $199.95 US. Also being released that month is the newest installment of Maison Ikkoku, "Piyo Piyo Diaries" (in English), as well as the subtitled edition of Ranma 1/2 Hard Battle: Mirror, Mirror.
