At least with these rereleases it should bring the price of the Funimation sets back down again on the used market. Then I might be able to replace my part 2 as the spine is creased, which normally I can deal with but with the foil artwork it catches the light. Then again I had plenty of chances to replace it in the past but didn't so...

I don't really care if the OP or ED songs are subtitled or not - when they are, the translations make no sense anyway, or at best are laughable. Besides, I prefer to marathon series on Blu-ray, so I always use the remote to skip past the OP, ED, and Previews for every single episode; I may sometimes watch them once, during the first episode, but that is usually more than enough for me. I have no interest in viewing the OP and ED just like I absolutely never watch any extras on disc, either.

I never finished getting all the FUNimation releases for FMA:B (only up to set 2) because I was never happy with the generic way it was released and wanted a nice box set for the series. When I heard AoA got the licences I was over the moon and I am not disappointed with this release. Cleaner subs, noticeably better video, original JP credits and finally a proper 16bit JP audio track. There is no 5.1 Dub audio as on FUNi's release but that was a upmix to being with and a minor drawback to an otherwise excellent release. This is easily the definitive version of the series to own.

I hate it when the Japanese tracks are only in stereo."WHO ARE YOU CALLING A RUNT SO TINY HE CAN ONLY BE SEEN THROUGH A MAGNIFYING GLASS, YOU JERK!!!!" - Edward Elric

My two FMA:B sets are finally preparing for shipment from TOM. Really looking forward to getting these. I guess the extra few week's wait was worth it to save $40 on the two sets. I sold off my two-part Funi set a couple months ago, but I do still own a copy of their 5-part set.

While Aniplex does strive to deliver us the same quality product as Japanese releases get for their BD releases, unfortunately there are some aspects that are beyond their control, and I do realize that this was made way back in the day when BDs were just getting started. That said, I'm a bit disappointed hearing these things coming out of this release as I thought that with their price tag and Aniplex's mission that it would be perfect, however, it's still something I look to get down the line at some point.MyAnimeList | Avatar: Super Bowl LIII from Atlanta

Learned that from a column ob ANN.Last edited by NJ_; 11-30-2018, 01:50 AM.Avatar: From Sailor Moon S Episode 118 "The Battle in a Demonic Dimension! The Sailor Soldier's Bet"
