Great news, looks like they will be doing a regular Kiba Wolf Form plushie instead of a SD. The SD only lost by 320, according to Bandai's poll.

>.< Kiba as SD sounded SO wrong. I'm glad the regular won.

Waaait... if I'm counting correctly, the five released (or rather, the three released and two to-be-released) Infinite Ryvius DVDs only add up to 22 episodes, which means there'll be a sixth DVD which'll be 4 episodes long, right? I have the first DVD, which is 125 minutes = 5 episodes, and as long as the rest of the episodes are each 25 minutes long, and as long as the information in the Releases section is correct, we're still missing a DVD.

Anyone have information on that?

Well depending on who's using it, it can mean just about anything. But in this case, I think they might mean "Super Deformed." You know, like the really, really shrunk down version of a character?

It usually involves a small body with big head. Like SD Gundam Force on Cartoon Network. Although that SD actually stands for "Superior Defender."

You're absolutely correct, I was looking at the DVD in hand and I thought it was volume 3, so I counted two more...

Except the DVD I have is v4.

I'd imagine its being released like all of Bandai's other recent 26 episode series.

5, 5, 4, 4, 4, 4.

(EX: Witch Hunter Robin, Cowboy Bebop, .hack//SIGN...sorta)

Except Wolf's Rain has 30 episodes (including the recaps). So it could be 5, 5, 6, 4, 4, 6 but I I'm not sure if Bandai will do that. That is why I want to get the art box to see how they will handle it.

I knew ANN made a mistake considering the last disc. Disc 5 only contains the same episodes as Scryed (eps 18-22).

Bandai is certainly "on top of their game" considering cool releases for my kind of niche anime like S-CRYED,Witch hunter robin,Yukikaze etc.

Has there ever been a topic/thread in regards to one's favorite anime company and how well they rate among the others?
i'm just curious.

Not that I've seen. But if you make one, make sure your opening statment is arguable or at least worth commenting. Wink

WR will probably be 5, 5, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, with vol. 7 having the recap episodes. At least that would be the most logical choice. Hopefully they'll do something where you don't have to buy the four recap episodes to fill up the artbox (since this'll probably be another series I'll have to get).

It's very likely Wolf's Rain will be released with seven volumes, but with the way Bandai handled the extra episodes with .hack//SIGN. It is possible to see a six disc release with the recaps spread out between two disk.
