And why should we look at the artwork? Well, most sites, including the official film site and all the major retailers, have nothing more than a really tiny preview of the standard dvd cover. Not even cdjapan.co.jp or amazon.co.jp have it.
Why be bothered? Can't answer that one, though it's always nice to take a look at how a film is being presented, particularly in japan, incase it's something really special.
It is nice. The standard dvd artwork is the one to the left (larger picture here), and the special edition dvd is this nice white one here. If anyone finds other pics of the contents of the special edition one, let us know. Incase you didn't know : the discs are both out about now, but without English Subtitles.
If you have a good internet connection you could try downloading Zebraman of the internet for free, then buy it later when an official DVD is released. That way you don't pay and support bootleggers.
just support bootleggers without paying them instead? i know what you mean... the thing is bootleggers : very inclusive term for something thats so grey in its thinking... i have some miike factory boots that are great, and these films (a couple of years down the line) still arent on official subbed discs...
Yeah, I hear that. Sometimes, there's a movie you've been waiting ages to see, but no legit subbed release is out or scheduled to come out, and you just HAVE to buy the boot. That's how it was for me and Blessing Bell.
