Shame that their "big release" and any kind of possible hoopla will only be for the DVD. Still, it'd be nice to win, and even nicer for that poster. Is there some kind of age restriction, given that it requires DoB? Let's hope so, that'll eliminate competition.

Do people even get prizes from winning these contests? I ask cause I "won" the DRRR contest a while ago and never got anything. I even tried talking to Tempest, but he didn't do anything.

"Before You Can Buy it!"
Well, actually, Rightstuf just shipped my copy of it.
So...you're a bit late.

Hopefully I'm entered, since when I pressed "submit" it sent me to Funi's page for the show. XP But if I am, then yay!

Yeah, that threw me off at first too, but looking at the HTML, it seems the redirection after you submit is intentional so it should be all good.

I saw this subbed when it was simulcasting and wasn't too impressed. Gave it a second chance dubbed and got a lil more into it (I know some may disagree with me or groan at this, but a show this insane is better experienced in a language you can understand, and thats for whatever language you speak, so long as you dont need to rely on subtitles). Still didn't want to really pay for it, mostly cause there is other stuff coming out I'd rather buy.
Winning it for free, however, is a perfect way to get to watch it

I'll enter the contest.
I could handle getting the show for free. I'm definitely not going to pay for a series that I haven't seen _any_ of, don't know much about (it got a mostly-positive mention on the AWO podcast, didn't it?), or much interest in. Getting interested is even harder when it's only a DVD release for an HD show... Does Funi's release have any worthwhile extras (I don't know what the Japanese discs got, if anything)?

You might be right about the experience, but they won't be able to recreate the endearing way in which the two sisters yell out "Faaak".

You might want to talk to FUNi about running these contests a little sooner because a whole bunch of people are already going to have copies of this before the contest is even over.

Ha, yeah. I think I've received DVDs from Right Stuf up to a month before the release date.

Not exactly as good as I hoped it would be, but that's just my opinion. You could always just check it out for yourself, as those first 2 episodes are free to watch. All you need is to make an account on their site.
(Lets not make this into another dub/sub war, okay?)
