so I firmly believe that if the re-releases of the .hack anima do well we will see new translations and possibly new material in the US in the future due to statements that the creators and developers have made in the past. I will be buying them I don't have them yet. I think we should spread the word bring new fans in and hopefully breath new life into the .hack franchise. what do you guys think?

I've not pre-ordered yet but I've had a DVD arrive long before it was due for release, that was Log Horizon.

Out of curiosity was anything changed or altered in the Funimation release that wasn't present in the original releases for //SIGN?

To be honest i never watched the original release. I turned 18 in may and before i was 16 getting merchandise for anything was rare. it was either expensive or out of my area since didnt have a credit card for online purchases. since 17 however ive been getting the stuff i want. CDs from artists i like. DVDs of series I like. usually i get DVDs at FYE. I also am able to purchase hentai at FYE :3 since im 18. but anyway what i can tell you is the fumation re release contains 4 disks. each containing episodes of the series. and the 4th disks last two episodes are the Intermezzo OVA and the Unison OVA. so theres an extra bang for your buck. to see the difference in quality youd have to look at both versions yourself.

Four disks is definitely different. The original releases had 6 disks that had six titles that eventually spelled "LOGOUT". Special features on .hack//SIGN was some art and maybe some songs. I recall that there was an Audio option that played only the music (because it was That good). Did that make it into the newer release?

Well that is pretty nice, I don't recall the Music only track ever being advertised though it's just something I stumbled upon when switching language tracks. But it looks like everything is the same as the original release.

Now //G.U. Trilogy never received an English Dub did it? So Funimation just released a fully Japanese movie?

Interesting, I bought a set of SIGN just a few months before Funimation announced they'd be rereleasing them, and it has all the same bonuses as their release. Though, I don't know who published this one.

The only thing we can really hope for is for Funimation to license and release Beyond The World for the west. I don't think a few DVD sales is going to trigger much unless it's exponential.

Bandai i'm assuming, or BEEZ if its in the UK @.@

I'm assuming the .hack sales are decent enough as they released them all the way to .hack//G.U. Trilogy without stopping ^.^
