Sentai Filmworks: Bringing You All The Top Shows You've Never Heard Of!

They should get Ryoko's Case Files while they're at it.

When I see stuff like this I always wonder if it is part of a package deal...

YES. AWESOME.

This show was awesome. Anyone who didn't watch really should. Consider this bought once I come back to the states.

Back when it aired, it never streamed legally anywhere, so I never got to watch it.

I've noticed a lot of your tastes are similar to mine, so I will probably order this (since it comes so highly endorsed.) Wink

Actually, I have heard of this show; in fact I've already watched it. Although it isn't a great show it is a really solid one (I rated it Very Good), and well worth the purchase.

It's a bit unfortunate that it is not getting a dub; the show is not a niche one, just hitherto overlooked.

Seeing this, I went 'Nooo'.

Having recently starting to watch this, I may end up importing it.

I only watched the first few eppies of this when it came out and dropped it because the male lead seemed like a real douche, plus I wasn't interested in anything that was happening.

I know it's clichéd to say this, but the show gets drastically better in the second-half when it leaves the one-shots behind and focuses on the main plot. It's well worth sticking around to the end.

Crunchyroll will probably stream this one eventually. I guess it may at least fill the void of the lack of Detective Conan over here (legally anyway).

Yeah, I quite enjoyed this, I like these kinds of detective shows.

I didn't think this type of show (especially a short one) would be "niche" enough to be released here sub-only. I guess it's because this show kind went unnoticed when it came out.

If you're thinking that this is a normal detective show just because it has "detective" in the title then you're off the mark. It's quite a different title than Detective Conan.
