I'm gonna do one of my infamous dissections on it, I'm just waiting for it in the mail. It'll be a DVD\Blue Ray double dissection!
Good, 'cause I wasn't gonna have the time to do one myself. Besides, yours are always way better anyway. :D

Hi. Just a question. So vol.1 comes with a card. Box1 comes with a senzu bean jar??

And will future boxset volumes come with these special items as well?

There has been no word on whether or not future volumes will come with anything special.

I imagine we can only buy the japanese releases. Do they come with English subtitles? It is the only way I can watch it with family/friends :)

Well there are no other releases of Kai except for the Japanese ones, so I'm not quite sure what you mean. And no, they don't have any subtitles of any kind.

I know this was discussed somewhere on the forum, but for the life of me I can't remember where.

Didn't someone confirm that (at least) the first Blu-ray disc is actually region-free? Can I get a pointer to that or preferably another independent confirmation?

Finishing up my review. Thanks!

I thought it was said the US and Japan shared the same BR region.

Yes, that's true; we're both Region A.

Fairly sure a European popped it in their PS3 and had no issue watching it, though.

Since this is the most recent thread on the subject, I'll just leave this here. Lemme know if you find anything weird before I post it up on the home page and reviews section. Thanks! :D
