Video:
The video was excellent. I watched it both on PC and regular DVD with a large screen and it looked great both times. No banding, pixelation, skipping, graininess, or odd colorations. It played very smoothly and was easy to watch. A rather dark anime, but with plenty going on and lots to look at. Great quality video!
Audio:
I watch the Japanese and the audio was soft at times and then the music would get rather loud during action or dramatic scenes, but it wasn't terribly significant and I'm not picky. Other than that, the syncing was good, the rest of the volume levels seemed ok and I couldn't hear any background noises or cracking or anything of the sort. Pretty good audio.

Comment:
The menu's were really nice, had good music and were very attractive. A different look for each disc. The artwork I think could have been better, they could have picked more dramatic pictures, but it looks good none-the-less and is a nice artful addition to anyone's collection.
I really like this series. It's a wonderful dark anime, but it's not too dark and depressing either. I love dark things to begin with and this one was just enough on the dark side of things. Robin is really a character that I grew fond of and the interesting twists to the storyline make it a fun series to watch.
On a side note, JJ was wonderful in replacing the first disc in the set for me. I had problems in getting the last few episodes on the disc to play, especially the last one, but he sent me a new disc really quickly and it works perfectly now.
