No problems w/ video

No problems w/ japanese track. The english is louder than the japanese. It's also weird how in some shots, the person would be saying something in Japanese but their mouths weren't moving. It only happened 2-3 times w/ quick words though.

Very good series w/ a really great plot. I couldn't stop watching it - so addicting. This is a dark/fantasy/love anime. Must buy! No mid-chapter breaks in between an episodes.

Video is alright, no problems

Audio is good, no errors. I watched the with the jap track on, I don't think the english dub was all that good. I checked it out often for the missed subtitles.

Series was good and it became addicting, there are some parts that i wasn't to fond of but thats how things are. Menu was full japanese, but easy to navigate if you are familiar with these dvd's.

very nice there were some gliches but nothing to serious did not bother me at all

audio was great no problems in my book

very nice series the story was great you got your fighting action plus drama and a dash of romance i think its a series i could watch over and over it has become one of my favorites so check it out

This is an excellent R1 rip from MAC. I couldn't find any pixellation at all, even in some of the more intense action scenes, and the video looked wonderful. There was one point on the first disc when the video paused for just a second, but it was quickly corrected.

I watched the show in Japanese but switched to the English dub periodically for some of the missing subtitles. Both audio tracks sounded fine on my stereo TV with no hisses or scratching sounds.

This release would not win any awards for presentation, as the gatefold case it comes in is smaller than most of the FX cases, and the images bleed through it, making it look a little cheap. The disc menus are not ripped from the R1, and instead of nice, moving images, all you get is a strange, blurred picture of characters from the series for each of the menus. The text on the menu is also all in Japanese but is not hard to navigate after a little trial and error. There are no extras from the R1 present. Having said all that, unless you really want nice packaging, extras, and do not want to deal with a couple of missing subs, this is a great set to buy. The series itself is wonderful and is sure to appeal to anyone into shoujo anime or anyone who enjoyed Fushigi Yuugi.

Very good! No pixelation of any kind. There is only a few times (around 3 times) the picture seems artifacted, but it's only for about a second. Almost perfect.

Perfect. I hear no problems of any kind.

Very good series. Good story, character development and layout. I have never seen a story as interesting and deep as this. It has all the aspects of a great anime: drama, romance, and violence. I will admit that in the begining i was very reluctant in watching this series because it looked as if it was another one of these girlie type animes, but it's not. I don't want to give away too much, so i'll leave it at that. But if your looking for a great anime with a solid story, great characters development or you're thinking of trying something new, give this a try. I can not recommend this enough!

The video is very clear and crisp! Absolutely no problems.

Definitely no problems here! A Japanese track and an English track is provided.

This is a great series! The packaging is the familiar fold-out case with a plastic case to hold the entire package together. But, the images on the case is of very low quality. It is too dark and the oranges, browns, and reds become fuzzy, plus they bleed. The summary on the back is in black text and the image is kind of dark so they are hard to read. Plus, they are not centered properly. Only the front of the box looks good. The second DVD label is very low-quality. The face color is pale and greenish. Other than that, this set is pretty good I guess. If you have a chance to get the official set at a lower price, get that instead. But besides, this set is pretty worth it for the cheap price! No extras on this set. And no animated menus.

Perfect, very clear no pixelation

both japanese and english audio , though I prefer japanese because I usually don't like dubbed versions

the only weird thing I noticed are that if you listen to the dub version with subs on you see a BIG difference as in the dub version the word damn and bitch came a few times up, I'd say therE's more violent words in the dubbed version than the subbed one lol. But still the Subbed verison is better on my opinion. They are the opening and ending themes note that the menu is indeed in japanese but quite simple to understand first line is play all second line is language selection third line is the chapters I do admit Aya's voice can get irritating after a while especially when she screams, so the jap version is always the best!!

Excellent video quality. Infrequent bleeding does occur, but it's livable.

Audio was great. Japanese and Elnglish work fine, and I didn't notice any problems with Audio/Video synch.

A great series. If you liked Fushigi Yuugi, this will most likely be something you will enjoy. For 24 episodes, this series has everything you could possibly want. My only complaint is that the DVD menus are pretty boring and the pictures are horrible. I doubt the menu is taken from the R1 version because they're in Japanese.

Great video quality. No problems, however the colours do seem to be somewhat washed out. I've heard that the video quality from the R1's isn't perfect, so this set is probably equal or very similar to the R1's.

The audio is very clear without any problems. However, the English audio is noticeable louder than the Japanese audio. I've only watched one episode dubbed in English and overall, I think the English is terrible. But since some subtitles are missing, you may find yourself switching to the English dub periodically.

Overall, this is a very good set to own! Great audio and video quality, and very good subtitles (even though some are missing). And one more thing that should be noted is that the menus are in Japanese.

it looks beautiful. almost as good as the r1 release. the only thing that i didn't like was that the menu was in japanese, but it isn't hard throught them at all. i though the r1 menu's where really good though. they didn't have to change them. i didn't see any pixelation or ghosting like in the fx. i didn't give it a five because of the ugly menu.

really good. there where moments that the english was a little low, but it wasn't that bad. put it a little higher than usual and you're good to go

AMAZING!, there's a lot of people who won't agree with me, but i think this series is way better than fushigi yuugi. wayyyyyyyyyyy better. jijjijiijijij! edit: i forgot to mention that i don't think this is a fx rip because it doesn't have the extras and it has italian subs which i'm pretty sure the fx don't have.( i got to check it to make sure)
