I remember seeing this series available on Hulu a wile (over a year) ago. But never got around to watching it. Recently though I got an urge to see it. I couldn't find it on there. So I went to FUNimation's site but it's not there either, it doesn't even have a show page. I think they lost the rights to it =/

Also, Right Stuf and Amazon don't have the boxed sets.

Those are only on the Amazon market, ie not being sold by Amazon itself.

If it's not available on Amazon, it means it's out of print. So, yes, if Funimation has let something go out of print it usually means it did not make them much money so they have no intention of renewing the license and just let it expire or it's caught up in some kind of legal red tape with another company which prevents them from releasing anything.

They have the singles over on Right Stuf for $2.00 each (so at 9 volumes it's under $20) they seem to be missing volumes 2, 3, & 5.

Note this is for both seasons since they combined them into one release (at least that's what it seems like).

So if you can get those cheap elsewhere, then your good.
