I'm curious, are all these combo sets going to be available as solo sets as well? I was looking into buying this but have no BD player and have no intent to buy one either.

Not in ownership of a HDTV or ignorance. Hopefully not the latter

At this stage you probably shouldn't waste your time with the UK BD release. Not only have Kaze crammed all 11 episodes & ova onto a single disk (compared with two disks for the Sentai release), there will also be zero extras. That means no Inga Nikka onas, no interview with Ango Sakaguchi, not even clean OP/ED’s! The whole thing screams of a rushed job, with no effort put into the quality. This new issue is just the final straw.

Personally, I'm using this as an excuse to put my multi-region player to good use & pick up the Sentai BD. As much as I'd love to support my local anime industry, Kaze have done nothing to earn my trust with this release.

Student with a crappy old TV. BDs are worthless to me right now and the foreseeable future.

Or maybe someone might not want to support the industry's attempts to clamp down on importing through stricter regional controls? I do own a BD player, but I'm keeping my old DVD player just in case when I get my next firmware update the multi-region DVD playback is gone, they can cut you off from the BD network so your player won't play anything if you bypass the region locking on it, and I find that to be an act of disgusting, selfish, short-sighted, counterproductive cowardice on the part of the industry.
