Video? Perfect! At least I thought so.. no track errors or anything like that. The animation quality was superb and thats all I have to really say.

The audio was great.. Nanbara was funny as hell and the voices matched the personality of the character.

I like this anime because has good video quality and audio, subs arent bad. But the best thing is that this is comidic anime, there are also some eechi sreans. Story is great, character designs are great. Some missing subs, but its still one of the best animes, I think. Get it now.

Packaging: Direct Rip Off of the Anime Cartoon release, just as a white armory case with poor print quality. It suits the show and looks pretty good for the most part, though the ink is pretty cheap looking and the sides are clipped, no big deal though. Nice 2-disc white armory case tho. Content: This show is funny as hell for the most part. A doll name May is mistakenly delivered to a young college student who doesn't know what it is or where it came from. Soon people come looking for the doll, many being dolls themselves, and soon take residence with the young guy. It seems stereotypical, and to an extent, it is, but the characters are more than likeable and there is a lot of comedy that follows suit. The ending is also pretty well thought out and throws a good twist into an otherwise good but not overly original premise. Good stuff. Subtitles: From the fansubs, see the subtitle shots to see how I can tell :). Overall, pretty good, some episodes are better than others. Episode I is missing a few lines of dialogue during one of the more important scenes, but it's easy to figure out what conspired. The episodes get better as they go until episode 11 where I think original subs may of been used, at least, some wording was weird in it. Overall, however, really good. Also, the typical " "'s from AC/MI Releases are present, and the names are right. Video: Nice, theres some occasional breakup, but overall pretty good, I don't believe I saw any logos popup nor do I remember any e-mail addresses (though if you really want to know, drop me an e-mail and I'll double check it.) Pretty nice throughout. Good bit-rate for most of the show and a sharp and colorful picture. Audio: Typical 2 ch Japanese Track. Sounds great, there's no break ups, and no humm. Menus/Chapters/Extras: Episodic Chapter Breaks with intros only before eps 1, 5, and 9. The menus look outstanding and are well animated. The final Disc in this set includes the much inquired about episode 11, which is subbed, and a mini-special after it, which is not subbed (though still extremely funny.) Overall: Good set for a good show. Recommended.

OK this is a direct rip from the AC version eveything is the same except for the video, AS had to lower down the bitrate, so they can fit all 11eps onto 2 DVD-5(AC version is 3 DVD-5), which cause the video to get blocky on fast motion scenes. And for the subtitles, its ok..

Video 4.0 ? I was surprised this had really good video for having eight episodes on one disk!! Colors were very vibrant and purddy and I only noticed compression artifacts during scene transitions and scenes with high motion. Openings and endings were cut (I think?)

Audio 4.5 ? Very nice with only a slight hum in the background which I only noticed on a mono TV. When I had it playing through my 5.1 surround sound I didn?t notice a thing.

These are nice!! I?m guessing Anime Studio didn?t make them? The only thing I didn?t like is when you went to ?Chapters.? There was no way out!! Audio 4.5 ?

These subs weren?t great but they weren?t necessarily horrible either. They left in the hornorifics (yay!) which was pretty good and the translation wasn?t half bad either but here are the things that bugged me: During episode one the subs disappear for a couple lines. Luckily with my limited knowledge of Japanese I understood what was going on.*wink* After that the subs hardly ever disappeared but sometimes a sub would stay on screen until the other person started to talk (ie: someone would finish saying "Hello" and the scene would change but the words "Hello" still remained at the bottom of the screen) and some subs were mistimed...Otherwise pretty good.
