I was hoping that the prior review was a fluke of bad ripping, but my copy was no better. I also had constant artifacting (pixelated blocks that taunt at random) and on disc 1 and 3 had to skip forward to get past major hangups.

The video artifacts were often accompanied by ear peircing, dog killing squelches. Gee, thanks. Injury to insult.

This series deserves better. It seems to me that HK disc quality has slid since gatefolds were phased down. Is this an industry shift?

the video was poor quality, not very sharp, it made it look like an older anime.

i was very dissapointed in this release. i was hoping to have this series on dvd so i could share it with friends, but the subtitle job makes that very difficult. i wouldn't recomend this dvd, you can get much better. this is a very good series but it would be very hard to follow and appreciate if you can't understand what's going on.
