DVD Box Set questions
The dvd set I have was given to me, not sure where it's from, but it's 3 discs with only Chinese and English subs (with some errors), Japanese text on the back, and no extras. I don't mind it not having dubs, since I'd rather watch it subtitled anyway, but I was still thinking about purchasing the normal/official 5-disc box set.
Is it worth buying only for the extras? One of the Amazon reviews says it has music videos for a couple songs, another review just says songs but doesn't mention videos. Are they actually music videos? I've watched the fansubbed version also, and probably trust it more than my dvds where they disagree on meaning. Is the official translation pretty good? Despite the weirdness at times, one thing I do like about mine is that it left things like "youkai" and "onikui tengu" as is instead of using demon/goblin/whatever.
Just curious for input before I invest in another copy. :-) I looked through some of the tags, but only found a little bit about the extras on the first disc when it was released, not the set.
Edit: Doubt anyone cares, but I did end up buying the box set when it was on sale for less than $25 - so a pretty good deal. I thought the interviews were kind of amusing. And the "music videos", although incomplete, at least included subtitles, so that was nice. And if nothing else, it gave me an excuse to watch the series again.
