I'm sorry, but can someone call me when another studio RE-licenses this product? It's bad enough that they are compressing the 6 episode OVA into two movies. This is just... idiotic. An awsome series... tanked by that. *huggles region 2 DVDs*

What are you talking about, 2 DVD's is plenty of space for 6 episodes. And where did you get the "2 movies" from? There's two volumes, that's it...

You know, if they released in on 3 discs, people would whine and moan that that's too many discs, it costs too much and it takes up too much shelf space.

Hey tempest, is there a way of confirming or dispelling this rumor (released as 2 movies instead of 6 OVA episodes on 2 DVDs)?

When do you guys think that Otoha's VA will be announced? So do you think that there will be a delay in the release since this VA was not announced?

Why do you think that they went with Hollywood actors?

Gee they're finally getting this out? About damn time.

I find it interesting to hear about one complain about putting the 6 OVAs on 1 disc. Technically you could but then you have to consider the amount of time for each episode. I doubt the region 2 DVDs follow this rule considering that most OVA release usually consist of 1 feature per vol. spanned over a period of time. Which could end up making it 6 individual DVDs. But whatever the case, it doesn't matter who does the release, they're going to do it it the way they see fit and that's that. Just be glad that it's coming over. Twisted Evil

@Chrno2: Now, now, no need to be irritable. I only asked that question because this is the second forum on which that rumor appeared that I frequent. I just thought that it might need clarifying. Besides, I don't think that anyone was complaining about wanting the release on 1 DVD so far in this thread.

Um... yeah, considering I've been buying them from Japan, they cost upwards of $60 for me, so the $20 American releases are a walk in the park. I'm surprised that Manga DIDN'T release this across 3 DVDs... D:

One of the well-known site (I don't know if it was DeepDiscountDVD or whatever they are) that had it listed as two movies, but... *shrugs* Probably wrong again... :/

Don't believe what you saw on DDD, they don't always enter information correctly.

Manga is releasing this on 2 DVDs, 3 episodes each.

Volume 1 will be released April 25th.
