While I know that the Geats Blurays is expensive at $90, I decided to check how much the Geats Blurays cost in Japan. They're three separate collections, but each can cost up to $175, so we're really getting the best deal here.

While still not ideal, this is probably the best deal that Shout! Factory could've gotten us from Toei and Bandai. Don't confuse this as a defense or approval, just that it genuinely cost a LOT more if they didn't get it down to that.

Plus, if you want to think about it, this makes each episode cost like $2 each, which I feel like is what would be priced it you wanted to buy individual episodes.

Yep, blu-ray and dvds in Japan are just so damn expensive and is something that especially amazes me more since the 2010s. It makes me wonder if the domestic market is just that solid regardless of how well their economy is doing.

I heard japanese bluray discs work on American bluray players, because there are less restrictions compared to dvds.

Yes, Japan and America happen to be in the same region. There are I think about three regions for it?
