The video is pretty good for a series that is compressed to fit 8-9 episodes on a single disc. Although I'm not a very discerning viewer, the image doesn't pixelate during high-motion sequences and the quality is consistent.

No problems with audio. Sounds good.

This is a direct rip from the MI release, and MAC doesn't do anything to hide it. Not that I mind that much, I personally prefer MI releases. The subtitling is definitely sub-par, but intelligible with some thought. While the DVDs themselves are pretty, the gatefold case is bland and sports large MAC logos throughout. What a waste, this series has lots of beautiful artwork (especially for a 1994 release) and it definitely could have been made more colorful. Though the main menu is in English, sub-menus are in Japanese. They are simple enough that someone with no knowledge can navigate them (especially if you have a knowledge of Chinese). Overall, I like this series despite the substandard subtitling. Fans of console RPGs will enjoy it too (I like calling it the anime that's an RPG). The series is plenty interesting, and this release is adequate -- but it doesn't realize much of its potential.
