I keep hoping someday they'll finally give this series an official uncut subbed release, in the proper aspect ratio, with the correct episode order, remastered into HD (which should be possible as it was one of the last TV anime done on film using cels).

Instead, 18 years later, the edited-for-Kids WB dub gets yet another rerelease.

Yeah, I'm also disappointed that these streams are still using the same shoddy, cropped SD masters. Assuming the show's original film elements have been properly stored, an HD remaster would look gorgeous.
