The series was released by Manga Video in five parts on VHS in the UK, and as a DVD set from Geneon in America. Parts 1 and 2 of the UK VHS (each containing two episodes of the original OAV) are available as a double feature. Parts 1 & 2 are (unfairly) rated 18, whilst parts 3 & 5 (each containing one episode of the later OAV) are rated 15, and part 4 is rated PG. The US rating for the series is 16+ It is also worth noting that the UK VHS release and the US DVD release
have very different English dubs. DVD Extras: Availability & Price: The DVD is only available in the US (Region 1, NTSC)
but can be purchased through many import DVD sites priced between £30
and £50. It is worth noting that because of its price there is a
risk of a customs charge when it reaches the UK. This charge is
applied pretty randomly by Her Majesty's Customs and Excise and
constitutes the VAT of 17.5% of the package value plus a £4 handling
charge. Some sites (such as
DC-DVD) will cover
this charge for you, but this peace of mind comes at a price, and you
will invariably pay more there than on some other sites. |
