Exactly where in the thread is it mentioned? (with a link to a site to confirm it as well?) Of course I can't read what Moonphase or Amazon Japan's pages say, but cdJapan usually knows what they're talking about, and there is no mention of either English audio, or any subs at all let alone English. |

If the moonphase link is this one:
http://d.hatena.ne.jp/moonphase/20040715 I can't read AoDVDs forums, so I can't tell for sure, but syr on the chatroom pointed the above link out. At any rate, there's still no mention of subs or English there. |

If these gets a rerelease from Bandai locally, I might be interested in picking it up. The high price was a major factor in me not grabbing it, as awesome as the series is. Now with Bandai doing its own distribution, I would hope the pricepoint would be lower.
And I don't even have a Surround-sound system, so it'd totally be pointless for me to pick it up right now, but It'd be nice to have - for the future. |

I highly doubt that Bandai will allow it to be subbed on the R2
Do you really think they're not planning on releasing it here? |

Doesn't necesarily mean anything. CDJapan frequently has wrong or incomplete information. I've seen lots of CDs on there where they only have names for like 3 tracks out of eighteen. I don't think anyone knows for sure yet. But like people said the Blue Sub box is what's making people hope. (It comes out in a few days, I can't wait!) I wonder if the R2 box will look like the R1 one. Bandai got the idea for the R1 box from the R2 Escaflowne box, and the R1 and R2 Escaflowne box look identical except for color, so maybe the R2 Cowboy Bebop box will look like the R1 one. |

The don't always have all the track names on the English page, but they usually do on the Japanese one. |

I really don't think Bandai of America has any say over what Bandai of Japan does. Everyone thinks they will, but I don't, we already got a box in R1, there's never been a japanese R2 box. |

They have some say, but it's not their decision. I'm sure they will, especially if Eva Plat turns out to be very successful for ADV. People will buy the R2's, but more people in the US would spend money on an R1 because they don't want to spend $300 on it. |

Yeah, but Eva plat is remastered and has added scenes. CB is just better sound. |

Yeah, but my point was that people will buy the 5.1 that haven't gotten Bebop yet, especially with it being a boxset, since the original box is out of print. Even more so since a lot of the n00bs are getting into anime through Bebop. |

Yeah, like me . As long as Bebop's been out (both on DVD and on TV), I've only seen the entire series once, and I don't have it on DVD either, so having a remastered version wouldn't be so bad (just like how I'm collecting Eva now) . |

The difference between this, and Blue SUb/Big O, is that those other two titles used whatever was used on the American release. This is a new 5.1 mix, and the American version doesn't have 5.1. Therefore, they can't use it.

Damnit, and I bought that "Best Sessions" disc for nuthin'.
I'll probably end up with it if Bandai releases it locally, though I'd be far eager-er to plunk down my cash if they, say, remastered the video perhaps maybe? |

I hope they re-master the ending, while they're at it.
