Excellent, more Votoms! Now we just need the Armor Hunter Mellowlink spinoff (that was a most excellent series). Though these are more of the "less good" of the OVAs, and I feel like for being sub only, it's a bit pricey for me, but that's what the Xmas sales are for.

It's certainly not as good a value as the previous set, but I've been waiting so long for these OVAs to come out in the US, and I really want to reward Sentai for continuing to put them out. For that reason alone, I'm going to preorder them rather than waiting for a sale. |

Haven't seen Votoms in years since I got the long OOP individual volumes of the TV series from Central Park Media. Suppose I'll get into the OVA sets for it at some point down the line.

Nice to see Pet Shop of Horrors back in print. Too bad they never made any more. Well, if you like episodic horror stories, I recommend you pick it up
So is this the last of the primary Votoms series? I'll probably pick it up when it's on sale as well as I've never seen Votoms, but know it's well regarded |

All this standard definition on bluray stuff is nonsense. Why would I get a release when I already have the previous dvds? I can see the point if one never had the dvds or found them to be prohibitively expensive but otherwise-no.

I think that is the point. They aren't meant for people to repurchase them, not for people who already have them on DVD. Though I suppose if you really want to save on shelf space... |

I'm curious of the rationale of releasing Pet Shop of Horrors on SD Blu-Ray. Could have easily stored the whole OVA on the disc in high-def considering how many TV episodes in HD could typically be stored on one Blu-Ray disc. Thus far, SD Blu-Ray's been used to store fairly long older or niche titles to save on consumer costs. But the format seems like a waste for Pet Shop of Horrors since it's only a 4-episode OVA series.

In theory, SD Blu-Rays will be better quality than DVD, since they have more space and can use better codecs, thereby avoiding compression artifacts and other typical DVD issues. They can have better sound as well. Of course, Sentai's track record on SD BDs hasn't been the greatest so far. As Covnam mentions, re-releases like Those Who Hunt Elves are likely targeted more at 1st-time buyers, rather than those seeking a small upgrade over the DVDs.
Because as some company reps have said on ANNCast and elsewhere, releasing SD BD over DVD is a way to address a perception issue -- anime collectors are increasingly seeing DVDs as old/outdated, and refusing to buy them. Putting older shows with no HD version on SD BD is a way of making them more viable for buyers who want everything on Blu-Ray. With Pet Shop of Horrors, there is no Blu-Ray release in Japan, and it's possible that Sentai was either not allowed, or simply unable to produce their own upscale. So for "perception" reasons, they're going for SD BD. |
