Hi folks,
new here....and pretty new to import buying....sooooo I"m starting to learn that there are different products for the same anime out there, first question is how can you tell what your buying if you can't see the package first or is that going to make a huge difference...so far the items I bought that I see have the FX logo on them have been really good but I also have one that has no logo and I can't find it here...
:confused:
it's Escaflowne...it's a blue cover with a scene with a lot of the characters..so far I just started watching it and whatever this is it's a great rip (if that's the term)....
it's 3dvds....english& japanese language, ntsc, hi-stereo, 4.3, mpeg2, english and chinese subs.....it says also D9x3 and a number F0038 ....(F003802 is the number on the disks)
the title is at the top of the box, The Vision of escaflowne (small e) the TV Series. 26 episodes
in the bottom left corner I presume are chinese characters...it's a nice overall package..but one of the disk holders doesn't work right.....
so anyone know?:confused:
next question....how often is FX copied and do these copies also copy their logo on the box...I notice the FX discs I have to have a distinctive look to them, I don't know if this is consistant...
these are the titles I have so far....
Love Hina (pink cover) FX logo on side and back, jenglish/japanese language, eng-sub, 3 discs L003-3 (says on disc) 26 episods
Hellsing- 2 disc,english/japanese language, eng-sub, 13 episodes, this one really has a nice package, H005-2
now and then, here and there, says FX only on the back, I"m thinking this is a rip of FX, the disks have a yahoo email addy and say some things on it, also not consistant printing with each disk, one has MA214E-03, the other two don't include that.
3 discs, english/japanese language, eng-subs, 13 episodes
Lain- now I"m getting the idea FX labels usually have their logo the side and back, but I"m not sure if this is consistant ...so this one does too...
2 discs, english/japanese language, eng. sub, 13 episodes
inside jacket gives you the episode titles on both sides, one side reversed (for effect) L001-1
so maybe someone can help me identify these...I guess if they all look and sound good it isn't a big deal but I'm trying to get to know the world of anime imports a bit better....
is FX the most popular import out there? seems a lot of the ones sold are FX.
thanks in advance, I can provide cover pics if that helps....
