So. Directed by Shinichiro Watanabe (of "Cowboy Bebop" fame), designed by Kazuto Nakazawa (responsible for the sequence in "Kill Bill"). Mahiro Maeda (of "Last Exile" and "Blue Submarine") is also involved.
I've seen the first episode, and was surprised by the dynamic mix old Japan and flashes of Modern culture popped in their too. Geneon know how to pick great stuff out from the largely generic Anime stuff. It's perhaps the most noteable new anime series of 2004.
The discs include DD 2.0 (Japanese), DD 5.1 (English), and DTS 5.1 (Japanese) and are Anamorphic Widescreen. First volume available with Box too.
The extras seem fairly limited, as they often are on Anime discs. I just want to watch the show.
