If this rerelease precludes all extras, then I'm relieved to have gotten and still have the singles to this day. I can't imagine my collection without all those clever, witty dub skits the people of ADV did for it. It's so obvious they had a lot of fun with it.


So true. This part of the extras is worth rewatching because they're really funny, and display some actual thought and creativity. I guess the extras are a casualty to get the series down from 7 to 5 discs, but I'd highly suggest that anyone who plans to get this series gets the very cheap singles from Right Stuf. That's what I did, and I didn't regret it. Maybe it's not the greatest show, but it's good enough that the cheap price won't hurt.

Extras? This collection has no extras beyond a few trailers. Personally, this is the first anime I have ever watched where you can skip the first half of the show, skim through the sypnosis, and understand fully what is going on. It pisses me off that with the exceptionf of Dog of Flanders, this is the slowest paced anime, EVER. Bee Train is in my opinion, thw worst studio ever. Medabots is only a good show if you're an easily marketable 10 year old. And even that is a stretch.
