Ugh…
When I first saw the 3 disc thing, I was wondering how the hell they needed that many discs for only 4 episodes, but then I saw they were all different types.
So, when does the non-collector edition come out?
Q. Why are the subtitles locked on DENKI-GAI Box Sets?
A. I spoke with the production producer in charge of DENKI-GAI, Mr. Shinji Horikiri, and this was in order to prevent reverse importation. It was also because this show does not include an English dub that necessitates removing the subtitles.
