Huh, so this got licensed after all.
BD only is interesting. I wonder how that'll pull off.
That is because Thigh-high Socks + Zettai Ryoiki/Absolute Territory = HUGE turn-on for fans of that sort. Legservice, if you well. And Maya has some freaking amazing legs. Pricilla from Gun x Sword is a prime example this, too. |

Yeah, and I guess you're right. Maybe there are better options I would have preferred but there's more than one way to skin a cat. I really shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth. At the end of the day you've just gotta go with the flow whatever they pick up. Some you win, some you lose but everything happens for a reason. I shouldn't count my chickens before they hatch anyway. A watched pot never boils and lightning never strikes the same place twice. Elephants never forget. |

Would've been a great show if not for all the filler. Honestly, you really only need to watch the first 2, and last 3 episodes.

It isn't as if Blu-ray players are still $300 or more. They are about as inexpensive as DVD players were when VHS started rapidly disappearing from the marketplace. Putting out discs in two different formats costs money, and not putting out a Blu-ray would cut off the portion of the market that is more likely to be willing to pay. |

Ah, missed that (or saw it and somehow forgot about it) - thanks! @ TheAncientOne - while it's true that BD players are dirt cheap these days (the one I bought just before Christmas cost the princely sum of $90), the thing that is probably still holding some people back (as it did me) is that you need an HDTV to make use of a BD player. Now granted, HDTVs have come down in price too, but it is still a not inconsiderable expense, especially if you want one of a decent size. |

I'd kill to get Endless Waltz on blu-ray. I recently bought Gundam Wing on DVD, the remastered edition, it looks great in itself. So now seeing it in HD would take it to a whole new level. Regarding DBZ Kai, I guess my suspicions were true. I don't see how they thought 'put footage together and release it' without giving it some blu-ray backbone since it was re-edited for HDTV. Toei's a real pain in the neck, they refuse to give Metrodome or Shout! Factory good quality Transformers series. |

Couldn't agree more, especially Pricilla 
Very happy about this and will be pre-ordering. Now NISA, let's talk about Lovely Complex....

As disappointed as I was that the show had so much content unrelated to its primary plot, I'll take most of the filler over the ending any day. That particular brand of spoiler[time travel based story] always leaves a huge plot hole, plus I feel the particular explanation of the cause of the apocalypse was pretty stupid. I mostly liked Maya, because she was kind to her friends, and capable of handling many of the supernatural incidents herself. She was generally justified in being a bitch towards Fumiaki, who was almost completely useless (or worse). I don't get why she suddenly got dere for him at the end. |

I know, right?! NISA seems like it would be the perfect home for Lovely Complex. A DVD set would be a day one pre-order for me. Maybe we start lobbying for it. It's the best shoujo romantic comedy I've seen to date! |

Wow! I really enjoyed this and am glad to see it get licensed. Not sure I can afford to buy the NIS treatment of it, but I will consider it...

I feel the same way. It killed this series for me just as surely as the end of the first episode of Freezing (if you've seen it, you'll know the scene I'm talking about) killed any interest I had for that series as well. |
