I never thought this would actually happen, but it has happened! I finally have EVERY US "Urusei Yatsura" LD release known to exist (And 1 bonus Japanese release)! The TV (Seasons 1-10) box-set is just gorgeous. The only problems I have with the TV box-set is the cheap brittle plastic and the REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY sh**ty plastic disc holders that may as well be covered in glue (I replaced all of them with paper sleeves.) I got an amazing deal on the TV box-set, too (I paid $50 for the UY TV Box-set, 10 Sega Genesis Games, 4 Sega Master System Games, 3 SEGA CD Games, 2 NES Games, an R4 Revolution for the Nintendo DS, and about 6 other Laserdiscs!) |

I cannot understand why Animeigo made such a stupid package, possibly the worst LD package in the history of LD. Its not like LD packaging hadn't been perfected long before this set was made. |

Just imagine a world where every LD ever released came in the same plastic holders as the UY TV box-set. |

Yeah... and I ripped one of the plastic holders while trying to get an LD out of them. They feel like the discs are glued to them ;_; |

Also, this part of the binder actually got broken off (which was kind of good because if it was still there, I may not have been able to put the paper sleeves in the box at all)... This is a quality product... |

Just wondering, what does the T-Shirt look like (My set is missing the T-Shirt.)? Also, was this something you could only order on the phone (There is no bar-code on the back of the box.)? |

Only produced when enough people signed up to buy it. |

The binder is really awful. I put the discs from my copy into individual blank white sleeves, with a sticker I made on each spine showing 1-10 in binary notation of orange & black stripes. One of these days I plan to put a sticker on each one with episode lists & summaries (from the liner notes) plus artwork. |

My favorite part about the packaging honestly has to be the huge size. |

The Akira set is great! Amazing quality with a bunch of extras. Also has the streamline dub, which was pretty good in my opinion. The only downside is the number of side changes. Not a bad trade-off, though. |

Not a bad trade-off, though. Personally, I hate the Streamline dub. I prefer to watch Akira in Japanese, for sure. It's too bad that the Akira: Special Collection has no CC's. I mainly want it for the CAV and the bonus features. What are the bonus features on it like? Thanks. Also, sorry for of bringing up a somewhat abandoned topic. |
