ADV has been promoting Le Chevalier as one of their hallmark titles for the year, and that can be seen in the effort put into the Extras. The disc itself is loaded with them, including extensive historical notes, English commentary tracks for episodes 6 and 7, a video of a Japanese promo event, clean opener and closer, and company previews. Over the last few years ADV has shown a penchant for occasionally including really odd extras on its DVDs, and the offering this time is one of the oddest yet: a cross-dressing pictorial featuring the English VAs for d'Eon (a very muscular David Matranga) and Lia (the sexy and relatively new Taylor Hannah) which has to be seen to be truly appreciated. Again included is a 20-page booklet including cast and staff credits, character profiles, an explanation of key terms, an interview with the series creator, and another round of script serialization. Another elegant slipcase covers the regular case, and the art box (not reviewed here) is also available with this volume.
If the delicious blend of action, intrigue, and the supernatural drew you in during the first volume then the second will not fail to sustain your interest and enthusiasm. Its clever adaptation of actual history remains a particular highlight.
