I would hope so, since that's where they belong. If they moved those, I'd be a little pissed.

Yeah they are after the credits. They don't show up at all in the dub if anyone is watching it that way.

Just pulled this from another forum, not 100% sure of it's validity.

Only new tidbit of information from the Funimation panel at NYAF:

Quote:
15:19:31 <bay|NYAF|FUNi> Q; What's going to be the frequency of the dragonbox, A: 60-90 days, closer to 60

If this is correct then it'll be 2 - 3 month wait in between each set; so we could see Dragon Box Two by January or February.

I am not bashing this set. But were the opening and theme songs meant to be in widescreen? I notice on Funi's Orange brick sets durring Zenkai Power, when everybody runs in a group, Yajirobe is at the very end of the group. In the DBOX the group cuts off at Launch. Does anybody know anything about that?

I .... think that is what it normally looks like in 4:3.

For those of us foolish enough to not use Rightstuf, Funimation posted a 5 minute unboxing on their blog. http://blog.funimation.com/

Same here! I'm still hoping to get it a couple of days early from AxelMusic.

Hah, this whole Dragon Box release was really just a huge marketing ploy by Rightstuff.

I think this was asked a few pages back, but I'm going to reiterate the desire, so that it isn't forgotten. Is there any chance of getting some audio samples posted from the set?

I am gonna find you and kick your ass!

To make matters worse, I got Evangelion last Thursday 0.0

As long as you live in the continental US, Rightstuf is definitely the way to go for FUNi merchandise.

As for video and audio samples...I might have a hard time with that. I was trying to rip EVA last week so I can watch it on my Zune, but no matter what program I used, I couldn't break the copy protection. I'm guessing it'll be the same for the Dragon Box. Did FUNi get some new software for piracy protection (not that I'm gonna hand it out, I just wanna do with it what I want)?
