Nice video. There is a hint of grain or pixelation now and then, but that's only marginal. I would still guess, that this is a DVD rip.

Nothing to complain about on my simple stereo TV.

Nice series. Watched it in one go. With the topic of the show, there are a lot references to other anime and manga. You should at least watch "To Heart" before watching this, because that's the anime it refers to most. Recommended, if you can live with 3 mins of subs missing. The special episodes, that aren't subbed at all, are independent from the main series, so that there's no problem following the main story.

not DVD sourced, but things usually look great (a few things fluxuate... probably SVHS or something). The times that I noticed things were when I was looking for it to have a fault somewhere... The video is really beautiful.

Awesome.

Awesome.

nothing new to add to the other revies, just thought I'd drop in my 2cents.

The video quality on this release is amazing. Colors are very vibrant and no signs of pixelation.

Audio is perfect. You can crank up the volume on this and get no fuzz at all.

This was my first HK DVD set and is still one of my best/favorites. HIGHLY reccomended. This show really makes you want to go create your own Doujinshi (fan manga), and it's a problem if you can't draw. Note: This set contains bonus episodes as extras, but they aren't subbed.

Video: Nothing to complain about, but the show has average animation anyhow. 4.5/5 Audio: Same. 4.5/5 Subtitles: 4/5 where they are available, but overall 3.5/5 (see below) When I first saw Comic Party, it was only the last two episodes shown at an anime club screening. I laughed quite a bit watching it, and decided I should get it. The show is rather funny, and is about a regular guy (Kazuki) who gets pulled into the world of doujin conventions by a goofball friend (Taishi), to the dismay of his girlfriend. The first disk is priceless; the second is a bit slow and less funny in some ways, and the last disk picks up the pace again. Probably because Taishi starts goofing off again, calling everybody "My Brother" (in bad English) and laughing maniacally. As far as this particular MI release goes: video looks fine, audio sounds fine, nothing to complain about. I can't really give it perfect score, because I suspect the source material wouldn't get it anyhow, given that the animation, while effective, is nothing special. The subs, when they are there, are pretty good, and look like they're coming from the fansubs (at least for the last two eps, don't know about the others). There's quite a few typos in the first few episodes, but it eventually gets better--or I just stopped noticing them. Overall, except for the typos, good subs. 4/5 Unfortunately, the subs aren't always there. For instance, they're missing from the Special, which is bundled on the DVD set together with the series. I don't know why they were included if they weren't about to be subbed--weird. More annoying is that they're missing from the pre-opening sequence in the last two eps. on disc 1. You can tell what went on in the sequences from the rest of the episodes, but it's a bit annoying and mars an otherwise very good subbing job. Overall: If you like easy, light-hearted comedy, you'll probably like this set. The series has some undefinable charm that kind of grows on you. The subs are pretty good, and despite their absence in some places, you'll still enjoy this series.

Very good video quality on this release!! Very funny series.

Audio is fine. No humming and all the dialog is on with the characters.
