Hi everyone! The countdown continues, 9 more days until the Pioneer releases! I hope everyone plans on getting the DVD! If you aren't, I hope your excuse is because you don't have a DVD player and that your getting the subtitled VHS copies. Before I go on with my "real" update, I'm going to give you a few good reasons to buy the DVD if you have a player and to not buy the dubs.
First off, the DVD has 7 episodes, dub and sub. In other words, the DVD is the equivalent of the subtitled releases volumes 1 and 2, AND the uncut dub releases volumes 1 and 2. The DVD is around $30, and the combined total for the 4 VHS volumes would be somewhere around $80 (+/- $10). So, BUY THE DVD! If you don't have a DVD, then don't get the dub at all, just get the subtitled releases. If you are wanting to buy the dub, here are some reasons not to - For starters, you can see the edited version on Cartoon Network, so why would you want to spend money on that? Second, if you are thinking about getting the uncut dub, then I say just wait. If you really want the uncut dub just get the DVD since it has the subtitled and the uncut dub on it. If you don't have a DVD player....Well....Just don't get the uncut dub...Or get a DVD PLAYER! The stronger the subtitled sales and weaker the dub sales the more likely we'll get a better dub if Stars is EVER dubbed and the lower the prices _MIGHT BECOME_ for the subtitled releases. Of course, this is all speculation, but you really shouldn't buy the dub anyway unless you're getting the subtitled with it (ie - the DVD).
Anyways! On to my REAL UPDATE! I have brand new comparisons!!! Episode 137, 138, and 139 are all up in the series section. I hope you enjoy them! Have fun!
