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.

Compared to other titles the picture here is a little too bright, so pitch black areas appear dark grey and most colours just aren´t vivid enough. But still looks good for an older show. At least no pixelation, ghosting or any other picture distortion. All openings, endings and next episode trailers are included in their original japanese version. No company logos or email spam at all.
Audio:
Overall a pretty good stereo mix with a small but annoying problem: in ep. 3 the audio track gets slightly out of sync. It´s about 1/2 sec behind the video signal for the whole episode, mostly noticable during dialogs and action scenes. All other episodes are fine.

Comment:
Recently, MAC added another title to their AC-line: Crusher Police Dominion (aka New Dominion Tank Police). Unlike the MI version this one comes only on 1 disc, containing all 6 episodes. I´m not really sure where they ripped this from; could be an MI-rip. But somehow this also looks like an Indian Video release... looking at the subtitle font. Propably it´s been taken from MI after they ripped the Indian version. About the packaging: the dvd comes in a clear keep case with reversable cover design drawn by Masamune Shirow. Again, no logos or email addies found.
