Not sure if I should ask this question here or in retail. IS there a boxset? Google and Amazon only bring up individual discs, and the ANN release listing:

anime#90

It doesn't have anything listed. So, is the review an error in that it's not a box set after all? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

[EDIT: Moving this to Retail. -TK]

The series was released as box sets first. The boxes were five DVDs, 20 episodes each and were available only directly from Animeigo. In theory boxes were only for pre-orders, in practice they were available for a while afterward. The singles were released later through normal retail channels. There are ten boxes for the series and another of the movies and one of the OAVs. So this review is referring to the first TV series box.

It is a daunting task to collect them, I have not as of yet, but if you want to get a good sampling, I would recomend:

Disc 1 It starts the show off.
Discs 9- 15 - some pretty amazing animation in this range (I am only through disc 19 via rental. I really can not relate to Ataru, and wish him a swift death, but the rest of the chars have me locked in to the end (and the ever so slight chance of an Ataru redemption).
