R1 ripped. There is noticeable pixelation on fast action scenes and fast transitions. Also, video is a little bit grainy and shaky, but this may have its cause in the original source.

Sounds kind of dull and there is an audible hum, as in many of the early AS releases. I only listened to the Japanese audio, so I can't comment on the English dub.

This is just the old AS set reprinted and repackaged. So all reviews for that set should be valid for this one and vice versa. The story itself was a little confusing for me, as the episodes not always pick up where the last one ended. Disturbed my flow of watching. Still, if you like classical samurai anime with a heavy dose of bloodshed and mysterious demons and stuff, you might want to check this title out. Equipment used: Sony DVD-NS300 PAL codefree player; cheap Grundig 27" PAL stereo TV

good video, only problem I had is that they were a few seconds sequences where some characters seemed to have been not too well drawn, but also note that it is an old series too.

both audio great

I bought this set thinking it had some samurai action and a great story. Well buying it at 21$ I wouldn't of paid that much for it, since there's only 13 episodes too. Story starts off well but strange relationship between a dog and a female human. When there's action there's blood, and lots of it. The story mostly revolves around 8 characters that happen to be the unborn human pups of the crossing between teh dog and human. Each episodes there's a new character with his own story that gets another implicated in it. The eight pups travel to find the rest of their ' brothers ' along teh way. I've watched it once and it's enough for now . lol. It will be quite a while before I touch this series again.
