When DYRL gets official region-1 release...

[J A Dare]

My vote goes to Anime 18.  We demand uncensored US releases! 

Aaaahhhh...yes, you are referring to the deleted scenes. Where Hikaru and Minmay actually do go into the Persian Love Hotel, and Hikaru and Misa's love scene at the Protoculture island city, right?

Of course!

I think most of us MWers either have the old fansub, the LD, the region-0 bootleg (mi and fx), and the official Region-2. Some of us prolly even have the COTB crap.

However,

I'm _still_ hopeful that DYRL will get an official Region-1 release in this day and age and with all these excellent and better A/V technology at their disposal.

So, which R1-shop would you prefer getting it for R1-release. Try to state your reasoning.

Consider that an official R1 will have an English-dub, whether we like it or not.

You mean if DYRL ever has a R1 release...

If that happens, I'd want Animeigo or Bandai to put it out. However, Robert Woodhead has pretty much said that it'll be over a number of US companies' dead bodies before that happens.
