Why are there 10 DVDs though? I own several discs that hold 10+ episodes of a show. This surely could be compressed better.

Back in the early 2000s, TV shows came out on DVD like 4 episodes at a time. That was to make that extra money on each DVD release. But when you are releasing a whole season at once, why can't you compress it a bit more than 5 episodes?

Don't get me wrong. I am excited about this coming out. I just hate switching discs all the time when I binge watch episodes.

IT'S A 53 EPISODE SERIES!! That's barely $1 for each episode. Surely you can support the niche market that is Sentai for that. You have 4 month's to save. $10 a month and you will be all set for when it comes out. Hell, even anime fans don't get this kind of luxury and anime is far more popular in the US.

Because:

1. Toei released the series on 10 discs. The episodes go 6/6/6/6/6/6/6/5/5/5. Shout! uses the exact discs Toei does just without the Japanese centric stuff and has English subtitles.

2. Ten episodes is a lot to put on one disc. The only reason they got away with it with MMPR is because their source was from VHS masters, which contain little quality.

3. When did switching discs become an issue?

Well I have Zyu, need Dai, and will most definitely get Kaku.

I have neither, but I actually want Kakuranger~

So Amzon is now telling me my preorder won't arrive until June 19th. Is anyone else having that issue?

Official page date still says available today.

And fun fact- Kakuranger is currently listed as #1 under Amazon's bestselling "Foreign Films." :D

So yeah, Amazon just shipped my copy out. So much for "Guaranteed Release Date Arrival on Preorders" with Prime.

Man, I dunno if I wanna get it next month, since that basically takes up all my spending money, but I also want to buy it since Kakuranger is my second favorite Sentai and a DVD I know I'll actually watch.
Man, decisions decisions...

My Dairanger set was a week and a half late, but my Kakuranger will be delivered today.

I think you must have gotten my order by mistake :P

lmfao.

That's right, they were a week later with Dairanger as well for me. In fact, I had to cancel my original preorder and just order a new copy to get it to ship out right away.
