Video:
Taken from R1 discs, the video quality for this set is really good. The only problems are occasional graininess around lines (which is seen when you stick your eyes too close to the telly!) and some of the camera pans are a little jerky. These are only minor quibbles tho, and I can easily live with them!
Episode distribution is: disc one- eps 1-7, disc two- eps 8-13. All presented in the original 4:3 aspect.
Audio:
Sound quality was excellent throughout- at least as far as the English track. I only spot checked the Jap tracks (5.1 and DTS), and lo- the usual non-working DTS track syndrome. I'm not sure if it's my player and computer that cannot decode this and everyone elses can, but these Mac DTS tracks never work for me. Hey, the band that does the ED theme pop in that very sequence for a while- be warned!

Comment:
Lets talk extras! But not for very long cuz here's what you get: DVD 1 has a 3min 48 promo for Miami Guns, which is very useful! DVD 2 has a whole 25mins of interviews and promos spliced together, subbed.
So- this is what the hideous mutated offspring of You're Under Arrest, Burn Up Excess and (to a lesser extent) Excel Saga would look like (all set in the little-known Japanese quarter of Miami, where everyone has Japanese names). How utterly childish and pointless, aimed at the lowest common denominator... ME!!! Yes, I'm afraid that I like this sick, fanservice-ridden idiotfest. Especially the afro-toting chief (he reminds me of someone...) Buy it if, like me, you really need something ridiculously lowbrow once in a while. You may just laugh. A bit.
AND a little note to Mac: CHAPTER BREAKS. Please can we have some!
