Erementar Gerad, which ADV announced as having pre-licensed at Otakon 2003, will cost aproximately 400 million yen to produce, a quarter of which will be provided by ADV Films. Erementar Gerad is to be released simultaneously in Japan and North America in April 2005. The Erementar Gerad manga, by Azuma Mayumi, was serialized in Mag Garden's Monthly Comic Blade.
