I've got EVERYTHING Funi has put out on DVD and not sure I'm ready to switch over to Bluray if there isn't a difference.
Well, the big difference is that the Blu-ray release is HD, and the DVD release is not. The packaging and content are otherwise the same, aside from the Blu-ray box being a bit shorter.

Forgive me if this has been answered.

Are both the Funi Dvd and Blu-ray releases in the uncropped 4:3?
Or is one in 16:9 (dvd) and one in 4:3 (blu-ray) like the Japanese release?

I believe it's been confirmed that both FUNimation's Blu-rays and DVDs will be 4:3.

Thanks a lot for the screenshot, doesn't look like we're missing much :).

The blockage must be a British thing, 'cause as an Australian, the site loads fine for me.

I can't see it either and I'm not British. :P


EDIT: Pretty strange. Now I can see the site.

Uh-huh I suppose it's not much for now but hopefully they'll add to it as the series progresses.

That's what I also said before. I'm hoping it'll eventually have more content like Toei's Kai page does.

Hey, at least we're thinking on the same page. Y'know what they say; "Great minds.." and all of that. :wink:

Yep. It's 100% positive that both the DVD and Blu Ray are both in uncropped 4:3. :mrgreen:

The word "KAI" means in the old North Germanic language Frisian "Kämpfer engl. Fighter" respectively "Krieger engl. Warrior"!

Perhaps the blockage is due to the soon-to-be-introduced TV Section of the site; they wouldn't want people form outside the country watching the Dubbed show...

That will likely only be a schedule page for where the show can be seen and when, if anything.

I thought we were past dubbed names, I'd like to know what's up with that?
Regardless of what everyone's (USED) to, why not use the accurate names for once?

I hope the site get's a revision..just thought we're past the dubbed names.
