TRSI has announced that Boys Be volume 1 and Boys Be Volume 1 + box will be released on February 28 for 29.99 and 29.95 respectively.



Correction: The Vol 1 + box is $39.95, not $29.95. I saw this on the TRSI website a few days ago--glad to see some movement on this series, and with all the extras lined up, I'll be buying Boys Be. On the one hand, the video quality of the fansub isn't that great (especially compared to the trailer on the website), but on the other hand, this is a "reward" series; a series bought in appreciation for the company releasing something "off the beaten path," like I did with Piano (also from TRSI) and Koi Kaze. Now, when are we seeing To Heart, eh? Question

Typo, fixed.

TRSI is a great company that way, they release titles that are off the beaten path and then they put a lot of effort into putting out great DVDs.

RightStuf is probably still remastering the entire series. The fact that it'll look much better than the R2 versions is definetely worth the wait.

I should have inserted a Wink smiley too Laughing . I do remember hearing about the remastering awhile back, and I imagine TH will be released in late spring/early summer. Score more points for TRSI on that one. As far as source quality is concerned, the version I have of To Heart is only "okay", now that I look at it with a more critical eye. Plus, some translations are incomplete/lazy, as with a line "How come it's still this hot, even though summer vacation is already over?", where the "still this hot" part is completely omitted in the subtitles. So of course, I'll be getting To Heart for these reasons and on the same grounds as Boys Be.

P.S. Sorry to sound self-righteous for talking about buying this stuff, but I know I talk about fansubs/pirated products a lot, and I want to make it clear that I do support the industry.
