I hope Discotek will license rescue Ronin Warriors and Kikaider. Or even red jacket Lupin III.

Yay! Finally. I've been waiting for a street date on this title.

Always thought it was weird that the anime went unlicensed even though the manga came out here and was at least somewhat popular (I got through the first 10 volumes or so…). Actually, what I think happened is that I saw some Love*Com footage in a compilation AMV and thought "they made an anime of that? Who knew?"

Sweet! I wasn't aware the anime adaptation of LoveCom had been licensed in the US or Australia (Madman had the licence apparently). In any case, I'll be picking this up!

I recently watched the live-action film that Viz put out a few years ago and other than some small issues, I enjoyed it so I'll be looking forward to this set myself.

Agreed on the bolded, If they rescued that and gave it the same treatment they're giving Samurai Pizza Cats then I would gladly buy both sets along wiith the OVAs.

They'd be calling it Samurai Troopers then, if they want to stick with the original name. I haven't seen any of this show in ages, so it'd be nice if they licensed it and the DVD had decent video.

Wow, I had given up hope for this title! I really love it and the manga so I'll definitely be picking this up.
Also glad for the reprint, since I haven't finished collecting the manga yet.

so glad, they've finally given a released date on this. I was ecstatic when they announced they were releasing it last year. I loved this anime so much I don't even care it's not getting a dub, I just want to own it.

So unnecessary! The Bandai release had double-sided discs with YST on one side and RW on the other.
I still have mine.

I already have the whole manga so the lack of a reprint up until this point hasn't personally affected me, but I'm glad they're reprinting it so other people can enjoy it. I'm always frustrated by the fact that pretty much every time they adapt a shoujo manga into an anime they don't cover the whole story (most of the best shoujo manga/adaptations thereof have this problem: Fruits Basket, Gakuen Alice, Kare Kano, Kimi ni Todoke, Ouran High School Host Club, Please Save My Earth, Skip-Beat), but I enjoyed the first episode of the Lovely Complex anime so I'm seriously considering picking this boxset up.
