I'm in no hurry to get this any longer after hearing about the 8th episodes subtitles. Who ever gets this on Blu-ray first should post if Sentai fixed it.

No one's confirmed yet? I would've thought someone received the Blu-Ray from TSRI by now.

Honestly, I'm not too worried about the subtitles since I'm just gonna be watching the dub. Although I do hope there was a large print run because it seems like A LOT of people are buying this; I think it may be surprise hit for Section 23 (yay more dubs).

Lol. Look at the alternative way of seeing this: The original language version was more or less riddled with some mad Engrish...

Who could forget the President's summit speech... Anime hyper Not to mention, awkward language barriers...:

U.S. President: RABUUUU AAANDO PIIIIICUUU!!!
Chopper Pilot: Input coordinates? ...Roger that. Attack formation!
CIA Director: [unintelligible Japanese]


So...grunt helicopter pilot speaks perfect english, the President can only get out a few barely-discernible words, and the people at the Pentagon can't speak English at all...? Yeah, me personally, I'm just gonna stick to the dub... Even a mediocre dub will more than suffice.

Unreal. Unfuckingreal. I swear, this set is cursed. Should I burn it or something?

So, a post office received the set this morning... It was missent....in a city THREE GODAMN HOURS AWAY FROM HERE.

This is either some mad, mad incompetence, or this is a truly cursed Blu-Ray set.

I received the bluray today and I checked out the second half of episode 8, there doesn't seem to be a timing issue with it. It might be just the dvd, but I'll continue checking the episodes just in case. I've already skippeda round 1-8 and part of 10 so I'm thinking the error isn't in the bluray version (I hope...)

This is officially, without the shadow of a doubt, the single most cursed Blu-Ray set I have ever had the displeasure of ordering.

Just as the mail-man put the package in me mailbox, some kids started tarding about - apparently trying to steal whatever was inside people's mailboxes. Happens rarely, but it happens. Had to chase them away. Then, as I opened the box, and then the set, I find virtually every hinge broken... Easily fixable by just replacing a case...but still. This is one of the biggest "What the hell" circumstances I've had to deal with it.

Laughing Nice one, KoH.

Yeah, the sitch in Darfur kinda sucks, John Casey - but NOTHING compared to the horror you've had to endure. Truly the stuff of Shakespearean tragedy.
