It's pretty disappointing that this is DVD and not BD, especially considering that the later seasons aired in HD, but if the packaging is to be believed I'll just be glad that all the episodes are finally available physically.

Yeah, I just don't like buying DVDs these days haha. And it's not like they couldn't rescan and put it all on BD if they wanted to, right? Get 'er down to 8 discs.

At worst, they could leave the first series as SD on blu discs, and everything done on HD on proper blu, but for some reason, only anime companies seem willing to do SD on Blu in North America.

Don't DVDs still outsell all other physical media? If that's the case there doesn't seem to be much point in halving- or worse- your potential audience when the material is SD anyway.

They can offer both, but it's bullshit when material made in HD is only available in SD on disc, like what Disney did with the Mickey Mouse series, where you can only get one 4-episode DVD of a show that ran 4 seasons in HD.

While I don't wholly disagree, I can actually see an actual business case for an initial DVD only release. To Dom's point, DVD is still the largest selling format, so the upside is *everyone* can buy it. They will also get feedback (while selling DVDs) from customers that want Blu, or won't buy DVD, etc, which allows for an actual, real world CBA. Do I like it? No. Is it a reality of IP being owned by a soulless Corp? Yep.

On the gripping hand, that same soulless Mickey Mouse Corp gave us _The Mandalorian_ so there's that...

Myself, and a lot of other people, won't buy a DVD of something that was made in HD, as you are getting something less than you should be. And here, with prices being only a few dollars different between the two formats, fuck DVDs of HD content in the ear. If I am paying Canadian prices, why pay $40 for DVD when Blu would be $45?
