Ani-on-DVD Despa List

DVD's listed below are divided into 3 groups, sorted by background color in the 2nd column. White: the Curious Violet digisub compilations, Blue: Direct-to-DVDR fansubs, and Green: Tape-to-DVD fansubs

Here on this page is the web's only complete collection of the Curious Violet digisub compilations. These are for people who want to coax the best possible quality out of a digital fansub by having them as professionally-mastered TV-viewable digisub compilations on DVDR (note: these are NOT the Hong Kong or Taiwan bootlegs). Each of the CV digisub compilations has been carefully reformatted so that the entire frame is viewable on a typical TV set (a small black border may be visible) so that all of the subtitles, captions, and lyrics, are readable. Without this step, a typical digisub hides much of the added text outside the viewable area of the TV screen. In making each of these disks, no shortcuts were taken - the soundtrack (sometimes badly butchered by the original digisubber) has been adjusted to a consistent level without adding distortion, and in some cases replaced by a completely new soundtrack, meticulously matched to the original. Likewise, many common video errors are also corrected, including the correct matching of Xvid codecs to source video, and corrections due to over application of broadcast RGB filtering, and many other common amateur video errors. Given the limitations of the original source video, for people with fine TV sets or home theater systems, these disks are the highest quality way for anyone to enjoy amateur digisubs. We get about 20 new CV disks per month.

Also listed below are fansubs "originally made for DVD" (highlighted in blue) from such fansubbers as Technogirls, Anime Miners, and Liquid Anime. These are exceptionally high quality and rival commercial DVD's in their video. Instead of being formatted to show the entire frame within the viewing area, these disks have a normal format similar to commercial DVD's, and the captions are placed in a normal TV viewing area.

We now also are beginning to list some TV-viewable DVD compilations of classic tape fansubs, mostly from original SVHS master tapes, using professional TV studio equipment and advanced digital transfer methods. They are highlighted in green.

Licensing issues: items are constantly being removed from this request list as they become available as retail items under license in English. If you make a request for a disk and it is removed from the list after you pay for the request, but before it is shipped to you, I'll still honor the request - otherwise, that part of your request will be cancelled. Items are removed without notice. In some cases, you have to be quick to catch these on my list before they are gone forever. It may pay to check the list weekly. Nothing here should be regarded as permanently listed.

Very nice results. Some people have been waiting for this DVDR for a while. This 3-oav set about a mystery girl who inspires (or perhaps enchants) a boy into trying his skill at amateur boxing is considered by some anime old timers to be one of their favorites, though I'm not sure anyone could say for sure exactly why - the subtlety of how the story interweaves with the characterization, maybe. Approx. 2:32:00 total (Japanese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

825	"Blazing Alpenrose: Going Along Love-me Road" (Movie 2)	A7	Anime Miners	(1:18:00) (Japanese with English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1466	"Blue Blink" 1 - 8	A8	Curious Violet	Osamu Tezuka's "Blue Blink" was the series he was working on when he died, so he was not able to see it all the way through. The series had a very limited release to DVD of the first two seasons, but that is all that has been seen of this series since it showed on NHK in 1989. In this story, a boy travels to some strange places on a magic bus accompanied by a magical creature ("lightning beast") as his friend, plus a pretty princess. The video quality of this version is excellent. NHK is deviating slightly from the original episode order in showing the series so I will use the episode numbering based on the current series order and also give the key words for the episode titles, which are mostly names of colors. This disk has episode 1, "Departure..." plus Gray, Rose, Ivory, Yellow, Blue (Aoi), Moss Green, and Cobalt. Disk total approx. 3:20:00 (Japanese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1487	"Blue Blink" 9 - 16	A8	Curious Violet	See 1466. This disk has Red, Sepia, Primary Colors, Purple, Brown, Rainbow, Gold, and Green. Disk total approx. 3:20:00 (Japanese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1218	"Brother, Dear Brother..." 1 - 4 Classic	A6	Techno-Girls	This is the first of our "classic fansub" version of the "Oniisama He" anime, in which our original SVHS master tapes are carefully converted to digital form, taking care to get the highest possible quality. Playback is done using a professional tv studio deck (AG7650) with TBC and chroma stabilization. Everything in the original is preserved, and we have tried to make viewing this DVD as close as possible to the experience of viewing the original master tape. Additional DVD's in the "classic" series will be added to the list until all 7 volumes are listed. In volume 1, the story begins as Nanako starts her first day of school at the elite Seiran Academy, a girl's school with longstanding traditions, including a school sorority for the most elite girls. To her amazement, Nanako is nominated to become a member. Another nominee is Mariko, a mysterious girl who seems determined to become Nanako's best friend. For mature viewers only due to some adult topics. From tape rev. 3 [1997] DVD Rev. 3-D.	Std Prem

Std Prem

1196	"Brother, Dear Brother..." TV 29-32	A8	Techno-Girls	DVDR version of the digital master. Since the original digital master was used to make tapes, the notes included on the DVD mention that it is a tape, but this version has not been taken from a tape. Mature viewers only. Rev. 5-D.	Std Prem

1216	"Brother, Dear Brother..." TV 33-35	A8	Techno-Girls	This is the original digital master which was used to make tapes. It is a standard TV-viewable DVD, with chapters, but without a conventional menu. The notes included on the DVD mention that it is a tape, but that is because tapes were made from this, not vice-versa. For mature viewers only due to some adult topics. Rev. 1-D.	Std Prem

977	"Cho Kuse Ni Narisou" ("So Easily into this Habit!") TV eps. 17 - 20	A9	Anime Miners	(1:40:00) (Japanese with English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1426	"Combustible Campus Guardress" OAV's 1 - 4	A7	Curious Violet	Complete set. An early fansubber classic, redone by digisubbers from laserdisk. In this over-the-top-satire, a girl defends the earth from silly but dangerous interdimensional invaders with her oversized magical sword which unfortunately has a tendency to result in an unacceptable level of collateral damage, though her real concern is how to do something about the crush she has on her cute stepbrother. Not to be missed. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Approx. 2:00:00 total.	Std Prem

1299	"Cooking Master Boy" TV 1 - 8	A5	Curious Violet	This 52-episode feature by Nippon Animation has a lot of the look and feel of some of their World Masterpiece Theater productions for Fuji TV, especially much-loved series like "Romeo's Blue Skies" which we subtitled. The actual title is "Chuuka Ichiban" and the story is about a boy with an aptitude for cooking who travels China in search of culinary secrets but as he does so he finds himself stumbling on characters and clues which are part of a mystery which slowly unravels. His travelling companion is an attractive girl. Cooking is a big part of the show, in the same way that the game of Go was a big part of "Hikaru no Go". Sadly, the digisubbers (A-K mostly) appear to have wrecked the video by inappropriate deinterlacing and poor encoding, so the video quality suffered badly, rating only a 5, though of course we are grateful that the fansubs do exist anyway. The originals (with a Chinese soundtrack) had been inelegantly forced to PAL format, so I had to do a manual conversion of the source files to NTSC 23.976 format to make the DVD. Approx. 3:09:00 (Chinese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1300	"Cooking Master Boy" TV 9 - 16	A5	Curious Violet	See 1299. Approx. 3:09:00 (Chinese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1314	"Cooking Master Boy" TV 17 - 24	A5	Curious Violet	See 1299. Approx. 3:09:00 (Chinese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1317	"Cooking Master Boy" TV 25 - 32	A5	Curious Violet	See 1299. Approx. 3:09:00 (Chinese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1318	"Cooking Master Boy" TV 33 - 39	A5	Curious Violet	See 1299. Approx. 2:51:00 (Chinese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1321	"Cooking Master Boy" TV 40 - 46	A5	Curious Violet	See 1299. Approx. 2:51:00 (Chinese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1322	"Cooking Master Boy" TV 47 - 52	A5	Curious Violet	Completes the series. See 1299. Approx. 2:16:00 (Chinese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1370	"Cosmic Baton Girl Comet-San" 1 - 7	A7	Curious Violet	Star Princess Comet comes to earth to search for a missing prince who may be on earth. Once here she discovers earth is an amazing place. I thought the artwork for this series was almost like artwork from series of the 1980's, but without the usual technical ugliness. Moments of excitement alternate with warmhearted stories. There are 41 episodes total. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Approx. 2:45:00 total.	Std Prem

1371	"Cosmic Baton Girl Comet-San" 8 - 14	A7	Curious Violet	See 1370. Approx. 2:47:00, Japanese w/ English Subtitles.	Std Prem

1264	"Cosmopolitan Prayers" TV 1 - 8 [complete]	A6	Curious Violet	A few remaining survivors of humanity obtain magical powers in order to prevent what is left of the world from being taken over by giant demons from a dark realm. This short 8-episode, 12 minutes per episode anime is quite a treat. It has at least two "naughty peeks" which qualify it as an item for mature viewers, but that doesn't get in the way of being a fun anime with a fast-moving story. Also included on the same disk is "Wonderful Days" movie. 8-episode series is approx. 1:40:00, the overall disk is approx. 3:10:00 (Series: Japanese w/ English Subtitles, Movie: Korean w/English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1376	"Da Capo" 1 - 7	A7	Curious Violet	Da Capo is a pretty-girl romance-fantasy anime based on a popular video game. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Approx. 2:35:00 total.	Std Prem

1379	"Da Capo" 21 - 26 [end]	A7	Curious Violet	Completes the series. See 1376. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Approx. 2:35:00 total.	Std Prem

1227	"Da! Da! Da!" TV 1 - 8	A7	Curious Violet	What's a girl to do, when her parents move to America and become astronauts, her buddhist monk guardian leaves her in charge of a run down temple, and a miniature UFO with an alien baby inside lands on her doorstep? Miyu finds herself in this crazy situation and somehow manages this plus school life with the aid of her boyfriend. Approx. 3:12:00 total. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English.	Std Prem

1724	"Dirty Pair" TV 1 - 7	A6	Curious Violet	"Dirty Pair" was an enormously popular manga and anime of the 80's, and could be considered a fansubber classic. Set in a space-traveling future, two bio-enhanced female agents of a corporate power engage in missions for pay. Code-named "Lovely Angels" the pair got their less glamorous name because of their tendency to cause disproportionate collateral damage in fulfilling their mission. We made this DVD version directly from SVHS fansubber tapes from Fuzzy Productions. The final two episodes are technically OAV's but actually serve as the final two eps of the TV season. The script is by Anna Exter. Approx. 2:41:00.	Std Prem

1725	"Dirty Pair" TV 8 - 14	A6	Curious Violet	See 1724. Approx. 2:42:00 total.	Std Prem

1488	"Emma" 1 - 7	A7	Curious Violet	"Victorian Romance Emma" is a story of a young maid in Victorian England, and despite the title it is not based on the Jane Austen novel. Approx. 2:55:00 (Japanese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1489	"Emma" 8 - 12 [end]	A7	Curious Violet	Finishes the series. See 1488. Also on the same disk: "Azusa Helps Out" OAV. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Approx. 2:55:00 total.	Std Prem

1581	"Eternal Family" OAV	A7	Curious Violet	An OAV consisting of a series of short comedy sketches done in an "edgy" or avant-garde style, not at all what you might expect. Also on the same disk: "Air" eps. 8 - 13 [end]. Approx. 2:55:00 total (Japanese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1392	"Final Approach" 1 - 13 [complete]	A7	Curious Violet	This 13-episode series (12.5 min per episode) is an anime based on a Eicchi game, but it has a real plot and ending, and is quite fun, despite its typically outrageous premise. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Approx. 2:20:00 total.	Std Prem

1395	"Futakoi" TV 1 - 7	A7	Curious Violet	A romantic comedy in which a high school boy moves to a town and finds that there are an unusually high number of identical twin girls living there - and crazy romance follows. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Approx. 2:55:00 total.	Std Prem

1344	"G-on Riders" TV 1 - 7	A7	Curious Violet	Three cute glasses-wearing high school girls wield awesome weapons to fight occasional UFO attacks in this comedy. Only slightly naughty in a couple of places, but I'll rate it as "mature viewers". Fun to watch, but it wasn't licensed for some reason - possibly because there are only 13 episodes. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Approx. 2:48:00 total.	Std Prem

1345	"G-on Riders" TV 8 - 13 [end]	A7	Curious Violet	Completes the series. See 1344 for synopsis. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Mature viewers. Approx. 2:22:00 total.	Std Prem

1412	"Harukanaru Toki no Naka de: Hachiyoushou" 1 - 7	A7	Curious Violet	In this magical adventure-drama set in a quasi-historical context, Akane and two friends are projected into what seems to be a parallel universe whose capital city had until recently been under protection of 4 divinities. Unfortunately, the divinities were rendered powerless by a demon named Akuran. Akane suddenly finds herself recognized as a high priestess and is charged with recovery of the divine attributes. Her two friends join six others to form a force of 8 guards (Hachiyou) to protect her. This is based on the same folk legends as the 1994 anime "Fushigi Yuugi". 26 episodes.

1259	"Heavenly Chronicles" ["Utsunomiko"] 1 - 4	A6	Curious Violet	Volume 1 of the Odyssey fansub, made from a direct-from-Odyssey tape using an elaborate tape-to-DVD process (over 45 hours of computer time). Based on a set of "Kadokawa Novels", this 13-part OAV series is a quest story of a heroic demigod "Utsunomiko" from Japanese mythology. Note that there was also a Toei movie by the same name which preceded this OAV series, which gives the story of Utsunomiko's early life. Our copy of the movie is not subtitled, so we won't be listing it alongside these OAV's. This disk is CV tape-to-DVD version 1, April 26 2004. Japanese language, English subtitles. Approx. 1:38:00.

1312	"Hitsuji no Uta" OAV's 1 - 4	A7	Curious Violet	Complete set. Although this qualifies as a low budget anime, its excellent artwork and gripping story really impressed me. This atmospheric tale is about a young man who begins to suspect that he may have a genetic disease with similarities to vampirism. Some disturbing scenes and the grim mood make this volume suitable for mature viewers only. Also on the same disk: "Triangle Heart" OAV's 1 - 4. Disk total approx. 3:50:00 (Japanese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1661	"Hoshizora Kiseki" OAV	A8	Curious Violet	A single-episode OAV about a girl who is an astronomy buff, who meets a young man who seems to have some special abilities. Also on the same disk: "REC" 1 - 9. See 1661. Widescreen mode, approx. 2:20:00 total.	Std Prem

1643	"Jigoku Shoujo" 1 - 9	A7	Curious Violet	Also known as "Hell Girl". In the story, a website exists which an aggrieved person may access at midnight. The site offers to take vengence for the victim. If the offer is accepted a mysterious girl appears to carry out the punishment, but the victim must also pay a heavy price. The stories tend to have a dark, wistful, sad, Japanese ghost story atmosphere like "Vampire Princess Miyu". Due to some new software and some experiments for this series, I was able to get good results putting 9 episodes on a single disk. This disk is also in standard widescreen DVD format giving the largest possible picture and best efficiency. I used a scaling of 15/16ths to keep all dialog and lyrics visible on both conventional and widescreen TV's with overscan up to 6%. This should give good results for new widescreen TVs as well as older 4/3 TVs. I also did parametric equalization on the soundtrack to remove an audio artifact at 12khz giving more natural sound. News: This series was a hit in Japan so it is possible that in 2007 there may be a Jigoku Shoujo third season, or some OAV's released. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English.

1413	"Kakyuusei 2" 1 - 7	A7	Curious Violet	High school romance with many pretty girls. A new story, not a continuation of the story in the original "Kakyuusei".

996	"Kanon" TV 1 - 7 (Anime) E-F version.	A7	Curious Violet	A young man moves to a city where he grew up, where he encounters several mystery girls who seem to know him from the past. Very much "manga-like" in its storytelling, with a slowly developing plot and an atmosphere which gradually grows darker. There are only 13 episodes in this series. The disk was made from the digisubs subbed by E-F by mapping to TV format and transcoding to DVD. 2:54:00 (Japanese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1198	"Kero Kero Chaimu" TV 1 - 7	A6	Curious Violet	This very silly but fun comedy anime is based on the manga running in Ribon magazine. A boy finds himself in a magical frog pond, ruled by an eccentric princess, and he discovers that whenever he gets wet he turns into a frog. From digisubs prepared by AC. Note: this subtitler did not control the quality of their video very well, so some episodes are inconsistent. We attempted to correct some of the variations in brightness and contrast. Remapped to TV-viewable format and transcoded to DVD. There are apparently 30 episodes in this series, not 26. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Approx. 2:55:00 total.	Std Prem

994	"Kokoro Library" TV 1 - 7 (Anime) Anbu version.	A7	Curious Violet	A shoujo-esque anime about 3 sisters left alone to run an isolated mountain library. Though the initial stories are slowly developing introductory chapters, a charming overall story emerges, accompanied by a lovely musical soundtrack. The series is somewhat introspective and there are no true villains. There are only 13 episodes in this series. 2:55:00 (Japanese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

(1:02:30), Includes "Licca-chan: Licca-chan's Sunday" (Japanese with English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1354	"The Legend of Galactic Heroes" 1 - 7	A7	Curious Violet	This classic space adventure ("Ginga Eiyu Densetsu") is one of the best of its type and widely loved for its detail and complex plot. The warring empires have characteristics of European cultures, such as the very-Germanic space empire, and it reminds one of the BattleMech series, though no "mechs" as such appear in the story. Unlike most animes, this 110-episode series is based on a set of novels. The soundtrack BGM is largely classical music, well matched to the scenes - Beethoven, Strauss, Shostakovich, etc. This fansub version is the original Central Anime fansub, taken from master tapes and digitized by an unknown party with fairly good results, but the best thing about this version is that it is the original Sue Shambaugh translation, one of the finest of all the fansubber translators.

Their family magic show is not especially successful until their youngest daughter suddenly finds she can transform herself into the likeness of a beautiful stage magician of the past. While transformed, she can do some bonafide magic, though her powers are somewhat limited. The series combines fantasy with comedy and drama, and a romantic element also appears.

In the meantime the two encounter numerous perils as their quest begins to feel more and more like some sort of wacky video game, complete with a mysterious announcer voice who periodically explains the action in terms of silly rules that make no sense to anyone. This is a shounen anime that everyone can enjoy. These disks were completely redone from the original digisubs, replacing two lower quality disks delisted about a year earlier.

1698	"Memolu in the Pointed Hat" Classic	A5	Techno-Girls	Though this is considered to be "The Memolu Movie" it actually is a skillfully done video compilation, based on about 10 of the original episodes, plus new narration. This is one of our "classic fansub" versions taken from our original SVHS master tape. In this story, a delicate girl, Marielle, recovering from a long illness finds her loneliness eased when a tiny person named Memolu becomes her friend. Though Marielle at first thinks of Memolu as a fairy, Memolu is actually a stranded traveler from another world. Includes Isamu Dota's "My Memolu" short, an entry in the Cannes Film Festival in the animation category. From tape rev. 1 [1998] DVD Rev. 1-A. Be advised that the video quality is compromised by the 100% analog processing and the original commercial tape. Approx. 1:17:00.	Std Prem

1220	"Momoiro Sisters" TV 1 - 24 Complete	A6	Curious Violet	This girl's-viewpoint anime from the manga running in Young Animal is quite unusual. The story is about sex, growing up, virginity, the first kiss, first dating, and other issues which are hard for teenagers to discuss with friends and parents. However, the subject matter is handled without being pornographic. The anime is a loose story told in short 7-minute segments in which 3 girls (one in high school, one older, and one younger) exchange advice, go on dates, and go through some growing-up issues. It is for mature viewers only due to frankly presented adult topics, but it is not explicit, and it is not a hentai anime. It gives a unique look at the Japanese perspective to watch this show. This anime was very inconsistently encoded by the digisubber and had to be split into over 40 pieces, individually reencoded with different settings, then recombined to make the TV-viewable DVDR. As a result this DVDR actually looks significantly better than the original digisubs. From digisubs prepared by AC. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Approx. 2:35:00 total.	Std Prem

1654	"Okusama wa Joshikosei" 1 - 7	A7	Curious Violet	The title translates approximately as "My Wife is a High School Girl". (Don't confuse this with "Okusama Wa Mahou Shoujo" .) The story is told mostly from the 17-year girl's point of view. Though she is married, her relationship with her husband is limited by the age difference, as well as his status as a teacher in her school, a secret which must be kept at all cost. For mature viewers due to some mild fanservice and mature situations. The story has comic aspects as well as a serious portrayal of two people trying to love each other despite an enormous gulf between them. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Approx. 2:48:00 total.	Std Prem

1210	"Platonic Chain" 0 - 24 Complete	A8	Curious Violet	Several street-wise teenage girls in Shibuya, Japan, discover how to turn their cellphones into powerful tools to improve their personal life. This ultratech and avant-garde animation is visually exciting and has some unique and intriguing speculation about what ordinary persons could do if they had access to virtually unlimited information. The impact of this series on a TV screen far surpasses the effect of seeing it on a computer monitor. The unusual computer-generated characters are nearly doll-like, and the splendid voice acting is a big plus. Episode zero is the 13 minute "web" introductory special, converted from 15fps to TV-viewable DVD form. The rest are 6.5 minute episodes. The digisubs were by AF and were well translated. Remapped to TV-viewable format and transcoded to DVD. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Highly recommended. One somewhat disturbing scene makes this an item for mature viewers only. Approx. 2:50:00 total.	Std Prem

1661	"REC" 1 - 9 [complete]	A8	Curious Violet	An urban romance in which a salaryman meets a mysterious young woman who idolizes Audrey Hepburn. She turns out to be an aspiring voice actress. (With a perfect "Holly Golightly" personality, the Audrey Hepburn role in "Breakfast at Tiffany's".) Each episode is half normal length. Also on the same disk: "Hoshizora Kiseki" OAV. See 1661. Widescreen mode, approx. 2:20:00 total.	Std Prem

950	"Restol SRS" Set 1 (Anime) 5 episodes.	N6	Curious Violet	This Korean-made anime is about an orbiting space-rescue team. Team members must use their ingenuity to solve difficult rescue situations in space, in the air, on ground, etc. Restol SRS looks almost identical to similar Japanese anime series. Some well-done computer animation is combined with the cel-based animation for space craft and mecha. Occasionally some jerkiness is detectable on this one disk due to imperfect inverse telecine. This show is meant for preteen boys. The dub is spirited though sometimes still sounds a bit amateurish. Episodes: "The First Mission", "Saving the Tower", "Flying High up in the Air", "The Fierce Tornado", and "The Maze". 2:01:00 (English Dub, by Korea satellite station)	Std Prem

956	"Restol SRS" Set 2 (Anime) 4 episodes.	N6	Curious Violet	"Danger Hiding within the Beach", "The Volcano", "The Conspiracy Hidden within the Storm" parts 1 & 2. Note: this volume shows the menu display from volume 1, but the episodes themselves are all OK. 1:38:00 (English Dub, by Korea satellite station)	Std Prem

965	"Restol SRS" Set 3 (Anime) 4 episodes, end.	N6	Curious Violet	"The Crisis of Alsert", "Stop the Nuclear Bomb", "The Countdown to Despair", "In the name of Hope" (final episode). 1:38:00 (English Dub, by Korea satellite station)	Std Prem

1313	"Rose of Versailles [Berusaiyu no Bara]" Live Movie	N8	Curious Violet	Amazingly, a movie was made in Europe, in English, based on Riyoko Ikeda's story, then released in Japan but nowhere else. It became a rarity. When the DVD was released, no R1 release was done, so this disk is available on our list. The movie is not bad, and contains a stunning parade of costumes. Approx. 2:05:00. English dialog, no subtitles.	Std Prem

1241	"Rose of Versailles" [Loon version] TV 1 - 4	A8	Loon Prod.	"Berusaiyu no Bara" is the classic shoujo romance of the French Revolution based on the manga by Riyoko Ikeda. This new direct laserdisk-to-genlock-to-DVD fansub by Loon Productions is the highest video quality version available. The script is a new edit of the original Ginrei translation. In standard TV 4:3 format, with a basic menu. Erratum: the Loon version gives the name of the director as Tadao Nagahama for all episodes, when in fact the project was directed by Osamu Dezaki beginning at approximately episode 26. (The Protoculture website makes the same mistake, in reverse.) Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Approx. 1:43:00 total.	Std Prem

1203	"Sailor Moon Live Drama Series" TV 1 - 5	A7	Curious Violet	This drama version (not animated) of the Sailor Moon story is better than the usual "from anime" series. What a sight to see these five enthusiastic actresses in their Sailor Senshi outfits! Monsters are a mixture of rubber-suit figures and computer graphic animation. For this TV-viewable DVDR version of these series, we specially filtered the video giving very nice results. Full Japanese soundtrack with English subtitles. No commercials included. Approx. 2:04:00 total.	Std Prem

1492	"Sailor Moon Stars" 1 - 7	A5	Curious Violet	[Eps. 167-173 of Sailor Moon.] The "Stars" segment was the final segment of the series, and as in some of the other segments the story almost starts over from a new beginning. At this point in the story, Usagi is older and more mature and more serious, though still rather daffy at times. Three new Senshi are introduced in this segment. These are transfers from the original VKLL tapes but are lower quality than average, mostly due to mediocre encoding. Approx. 2:55:00 (Japanese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1648	"Shounen-Ai OAV Set"	A7	Curious Violet	NOT FOR CHILDREN.

Approx. 2:00. Japanese dialog, English subtitles.	Std Prem

1695	"Song of the Wind and Trees" Classic	A5	Techno-Girls	NOT FOR CHILDREN. "Kaze to Ki no Uta" the movie, from the long-running manga of the same name by Keiko Takemiya, which originated the genre of shounenai in manga. This is one of our "classic fansub" versions taken from our original SVHS master tape. For mature viewers only due to blatant boy-boy romance. The story involves a feverish romance between two boys in an elite European boarding school. Approx. 1:07. In Japanese with English subtitles. From tape rev. 1 [1997] DVD Rev. 1-B. This fansub has been named by some collectors as one of the best done tape-to-tape fansubs of the early 90's. Be advised that the video quality is compromised by the 100% analog processing and the original commercial tape.	Std Prem

1346	"St. Luminous Mission High School" 1 - 7	A6	Curious Violet	In this shoujo mystery-fantasy, a boy finds himself the heir to the directorship of a stylish girls' christian academy, but his first task is to solve the mystery of a student who disappeared. His best friend helps him by going undercover dressed as a girl student. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Approx. 2:48:00 total.	Std Prem

821	"The Star of Cottonland" Movie	A7	Anime Miners	This classic shoujo anime is about a tiny kitten who wants to be a human girl. The main character is drawn as a little girl, though everyone else sees her as a kitten. The amusing scenes of the tiny "girl" behaving like a typical kitten makes this one of the most charming animes I've ever seen. (1:36:00) (Japanese with English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1658	"Strawberry Panic" 1 - 9	A7	Curious Violet	Strawberry Panic is set in a girl's-only school with many unique traditions, somewhat in the manner of "Maria-sama ga Miteru". It is generally described as a "yuri" anime (Girl-girl romance), though that would of course be the newer fan usage of the term since strictly speaking the series is a "bishoujo" one. (Though the author of the manga is female, the series runs in a magazine primarily for boys or male otaku.) As with many such cases, the anime may have a wider appeal than the original manga. Regardless, I enjoyed the series quite a bit. My new process was able to put the 26-episodes on 3 disks instead of the usual 4. Japanese soundtrack, subtitled in English. Approx. 3:36:00 total.	Std Prem

1659	"Strawberry Panic" 10 - 18	A7	Curious Violet	See 1658. Approx. 3:36:00 total.	Std Prem

1662	"Studio 4C Digital Juice" OAV	A8	Curious Violet	This avant-garde animation from Studio 4C is a collection of 6 shorts by different anime directors in the studio. Definitely not your "normal" anime. Satirical, whimsical, or just plain obscure, it's a treat to watch. Also on the same disk: "Taiyou no Mokushiroku" OAV's 1 & 2. Widescreen format. Approx. 2:34:00 total.	Std Prem

1662	"Taiyou no Mokushiroku" OAV's 1 & 2 [complete]	A8	Curious Violet	Amazing scenes of Japan undergoing a cataclysm of earthquake and continental shift. The survivors of a destroyed Japan use their wits to find a refuge while not losing their Japanese identity. An unusual anime. Also on the same disk: "Studio 4C Digital Juice". Widescreen format. Approx. 2:34:00 total.	Std Prem

823	"Tokimeki Tonight (2): Ranze goes to Demonworld"	A7	Anime Miners	Ranze's mother is a werewolf and her father is a vampire, but she's just an ordinary girl… (49:15) (Japanese with English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1428	"Touch" 1 - 7	A7	Curious Violet	The three great romantic-themed shounen anime series in the opinion of many anime connoisseurs are "Maison Ikkoku", "Kimagure Orange Road", and this one, "Touch". One of the most-loved series by Adachi Mitsuru, "Touch" is a mixture of a nostalgic growing-up drama, romantic triangle, and baseball. There are 101 episodes in the TV series. Don't watch the movies until you watch the TV series, since the movies totally spoil some of the surprises. This set required a lot of extra work to fix some problems in the original fansub release, including the annoying audio whine and the low contrast video with unbalanced color. All fixes were done and checked by hand, one episode at a time. Disk total approx. 2:55:00 (Japanese w/ English Subtitles)	Std Prem

1595	"Touch" Movies 4 & 5 (the sequels)	A7	Curious Violet	Movies 4 & 5 are sequels 1 & 2. You should see the TV series 1 - 101 before watching these sequel movies, for best enjoyment. Movies 1 - 3 are recaps and are unnecessary to watch if you have watched all the TV series, so they are not included here. After you have seen TV eps 1-101 and movies 4 & 5, you've seen it all.
