The there are bad burns in my set and this is confirmed via reviews on the web, more specifically:
"There are glitches on the discs so I'd recommend not buying it until they issue fixed discs. Episodes 9, 10, 14, 24, 25 all experienced lock up/freeze problems. My laptop dvd player wouldn't even play disc 2, my desktop did though and only locked up on the episodes that were bugged. Check bandai's website to see when they issue the new ones and then pick it up imo. It's a good price for the first half of the series. "
I already chucked the reciept as this isnt a typical problem of dvd sets. OH WELL.
-
hmmm. i may wait on the zeta gundam collection then to see if there are any errors.....
-
Yeah im not sure what happened here, all of their other stuff is fine, this is really a first for me.
-
try this
use dvddecrypt to pull down the iso then see if you can't watch it from your laptop. if it still freezes, use DVD shrink to try to reauthor it and then you can burn it to a CDR and see if that doesn't fix the problem
i have had to do this with some region 0 gray market releases
-
I bought the singles of SEED as they were released, but still good to know.
-
Yeah I know ichiro was planning to pick this set up at some point too
-
Yeah, thanks for the warning. This seems to happen a lot with anime DVDs. I remember when the Escaflowne movie came out, half of the initial batch of DVDs were buggy and had to be exchanged. :/

-
serial experiments lain is a mindfuck yo
-
If I didn't already own it, I'd definitely be buying it. Wish I could find someplace that has Paranoia Agent, Haibane Renmei, Gankutsuou and Last Exile on sale, I want all of those.

Paranoia Agent and Gankutsuou are not at Deep Discount.
-
what about amazon or ebay
-
I don't use eBay and Amazon is always overpriced.
-
Back home Paranoia Agent and Gankutsuou are common at Best Buys. Maybe Ed can get em for ya
-
Amazon has Gankutsuou for $135 and says it ships in "four to six weeks" (which I think means they order them from the manufacturer, but Geneon's out of business!). Paranoia Agent is $90 and it also says 4 to 6 weeks.
-
Right Stuf has them for the same price, except they're actually in stock.
-
Gank is common at best buys, paranoia agent is not, its actually getting hard to find that box set in WA.
-
How much does it go for at Best Buy? If it's $135 perhaps I should just bite the bullet and buy it and Paranoia Agent before they become rare.
-
Gank is top 5 anime material Ichi, it'd be worth it
dunno how much it costs at best buys
Paranoia Agent is still common at the best buys back in houston
-
I forget how much I paid, a little over 100 i think, or 100
-
I'm just gonna go ahead and buy it. Once it's sold out, who knows when they'll make more.
OMG I just bought it. $300 for Gankutsuou, Paranoia Agent, AND Haibane Renmei.
I am a regular MAF.
-
:bow they all rock
-
Haibane looked a little too uhh I dunno, but PA and Gan rock
-
I am singlehandedly saving the anime industry!!! I just bought the Gasaraki box set which was on sale too.
I bought Haibane Renmei because it looks like it was influenced by Haruki Murakami's Hard-Boiled Wonderland & The End of the World, which I :heartbeat when I read it last year.
-
You and me both man, I own so much good anime these days. We rock
-
Well lemme know how Haib is?
-
have you seen kino's journey, ichi
-
I haven't, but I always thought she was a guy until I saw a new plastic statue of the character in Akihabara last week and noticed it had boobs.
-
hauhau
-
give kino's journey a shot someday. it's 13 eps and cheap as hell. got it at best buy for 35. it's not for everyone though. it's pretty unusual by anime standards. it doesn't have a traditional narrative.
-
Right Stuf has the box set for $36. It will have to wait till next month, though - I have reached my animu limit for February and we are only in the first day of the month!
-
february aka ANIMU BUYERS MONTH
-
Maybe I'll buy it this month...I get paid on the 21st.
Well lemme know how Haib is?
Will do!
-
february aka ANIMU BUYERS MONTH
HELLSING ULTIMATE OVA 4 FEB 22 omg buy :bow
