Summer Wars arrives on DVD and Blu-ray tomorrow from FUNimation (check our review of the DVD release here) and to help celebrate it, they're rolling out a new English language clip of the show as well as a three part interview with the films dub director, Mike McFarland, as he talks about all that went into the project with its expansive cast and the balance of humorous material and the serious side of it all.
