{"product_id":"little-busters-ex-blu-ray","title":"Little Busters! EX - Blu-ray","description":"Little Busters!: EX is an 8-episode OVA series adapting the additional routes from the Little Busters! Ecstasy expanded edition of Key's visual novel — specifically the routes for Saya Tokido, Kanata Futaki, and Sasami Sasasegawa, three characters who received minimal attention in the main TV series. Saya's route in particular — a thriller involving a labyrinth beneath the school, a mysterious mission, and a girl who fights with extraordinary ability and carries secrets she may not survive revealing — is widely considered the best writing in the EX series and one of the most distinctive storylines in the Little Busters! universe. The OVA episodes are framed as standalone supplements to the main series rather than a continuation, and can be viewed after either season.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLittle Busters!: EX is produced by J.C. Staff and directed by Yoshiki Yamakawa, released in Japan from January 29 to July 30, 2014. Sentai Filmworks released the EX Complete Collection on Blu-ray on December 6, 2016 at an SRP of $49.98, running 200 minutes across 8 episodes, rated 14+.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eNotable Staff \u0026amp; Voice Talent\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDirector:\u003c\/b\u003e Yoshiki Yamakawa\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eOriginal Visual Novel:\u003c\/b\u003e Key \/ Visual Art's (Little Busters!
