Picture: The picture was presented in it's original full frame format. Even for a series nearly 20 years old, it wasn't the clearest looking anime but the target audience will not care much. Some of the episodes used scratchy prints and there were some compression artifacts at times but not enough to dismiss this one completely.
Sound: The audio was presented in Dolby Digital 2.0 Stereo-either English or Japanese with subtitles. Again, fairly limited but it was okay for such an older release.
Extras: There was a prologue which outlined the background of the show. A series of character biographies to bring you up to speed on who everyone was. A photogallery, Japanese credits, and the typical Manga extras of trailers and their dvd catalog filled out the list. Oh, there was also a paper insert inside the dvd case that copied the back of the dvd cover.
Final Thoughts: Retro-anime fans may find this more appealing than I did. Compared to more recent releases, this one looked pretty weak and the limited anime style employed tends to be liked best by kids but it wasn't without merit. I'd suggest this one as a rental to anyone other than dedicated fans of the series or anime in general but you do get a lot of action for your dollar.
