I made my RELease in part because I was pessimistic about an unshared torrent coming back to life anytime soon. I am glad my reverse psychology worked on it! ;) Looking forward to it!

Well, it certainly wasn't one of those btdig torrents, which I was curious about, as one of them was labeled as 1080p!

The DVD9 came from CG, and I am usually able to get unseeded torrents from there.

Ah, the advantage of private torrents: you can contact potential Seeders!

CG has a neat feature that lets you know if there's a torrent-- one with a leecher, that also has limited seeders, and is one that you've fully downloaded, and that you are not currently seeding. Great little system. Kinda like the requested files page, except it tells you if you have it.

Gotta wait a little longer for emuling, so I decided to make a mega link for those interested for the time being. EDIT: emule links posted. If you grabbed it from mega, would you consider helping me source over emule? Awww thanks, dude.

I am looking into why my VLC screenshots are coming out at different aspect ratios. I have it set to the correct AR, but some of them squish up anyways, while the others stay correct.

I remember someone here experienced that, so I guess it was you. I thought it was just an oddball DVD. But, now, again? I have no idea.

Thanks for sharing!

No problemo.

This movie looks pretty sweet so far. I've definitely enjoyed what I've watched so far.

I forgot to mention that, of course, this is a Japanese DVD, so the menus are in Japanese. Anyone here, I am sure, who doesn't mind tinkering with playback options will be able to navigate just fine, but I thought I'd list it out.

1st option - Play movie
2nd - Chapter select
3rd - Special features / Film crew info and statements
4th - Special features / Previews, trailers, interviews, making of, clickable map, clickable larvae

There are a decent amount of special features on this DVD. Coolness.
