I was let down and thought they took the easy way out. After sitting through 13 episodes I was hoping for something more.Īs with the other discs in this series, you have the option of watching this DVD with a 2.0 Japanese language track, or an English dub in 5.1. I listened to both tracks on different episodes, and I definitely prefer the Japanese track. Apparently, according to the AD Vid-notes, the characters all have regional accents. When making the English dub, the actors used southern drawls and other accents to mimic this.

The accents don't sound authentic, and listening to them gets old really fast. With this volume I've really grown to dislike the actor who voices Sasshi in English. This female actor tries, but she sounds like a woman trying to sound like a young boy, not like a lad. The Japanese language track is very nice. There is some use made of the soundstage. Though there are not a lot of these stereo effects what they do use is effective. The video on this disc has an aspect ratio of 1.78:1 and is anamorphically enhanced. The colors are clear and bright, and the lines are tight. There are some instances of aliasing, which show up in most animation, but these are minor and are only noticeable if you are looking for them. There are a few instances of banding too. This is a nice looking disc.Īs they did on the first disc, ADV did something neat with the FBI warning that pops up before the main menu appears. They have a voice over that warns the viewer of dire consequences if the disc is illegally broadcast or copied. There are a couple of different voiceovers with different scripts that pop up at random, so you never know what you'll get when you pop in the disc. There is an outtake reel that consists of the English cast messing up and ad-libbing some lines. I especially enjoyed the extended outtake with Mune-Mune in the totally white world. This DVD also has AD Vidnotes pop-up notes that explain jokes and cultural references that American viewers might not understand. The Vidnotes on this disc are a very good. They have improved greatly since the first volume's notes, which were horrible.

The frequency is very good, and they have stopped including pop-up jokes that were prevalent in the first DVD. A nice feature to have.Įpisode twelve has a commentary track by voice actors Luci Christian, Jessica Boone, and John Gremillion. They seem to have a good time, and they do manage to talk the entire episode, but the content wasn't anything that I was interested in. They would point out what movie was being parodied, and give their thoughts on the original. It reminded me of a group of friends talking during a movie.
