Video:
I agree with the previous review about the video. The clarity of colors, specifically the lack of contrast in some instances, is lacking. However, as was mentioned, no problems with any pixelation or blocking or skipping.
Audio:
Again, I agree with the previous review about the audio. Though the audio was out of sync, it didn't become readily noticable until maybe 1/3 into it, but it wasn't enough to make it hard to watch. Overall very good.

Comment:
I saw this series (the first two eps) dubbed a while back, and so the subtitle issue is pretty harsh when one compares the two. I'm certain that the dubbed version was rewritten a lot to account for the different ways of expressing the same basic concept in both languages, there should have been more effort made to accomplish what the dubbed version (Leona's voice aside) did for it. The name-changes were especially agitating. It is unfortunate that the subtitling seem to overshadow what would otherwise be a well-crafted DVD. I do still recommend this DVD overall, so long as you know the characters' true names and the basic premise for the storyline.
