Kiddy Grade DVD box 1

| 6 Comments

The first DVD box has arrived, and you can see pictures here. It is smaller than I imagined - the case isn't much taller than a DVD. The disc prints mirror the original cover artwork rather than the original discs themselves (at least when compared to the Collectors Edition as I do not have any of the regular edition discs), however the contents is exactly the same as the original LE DVDs, down to the last byte as you can see here, so also include the JPGs of the eyecatch artwork as DVD-ROM content. The bonus disc has the same image as the box. The Keiji Gotoh interview is again set at a radio telescope array somewhere and is very short (3m25s), consisting of just a few questions. The Sound Layer (14m57s), introduced by Ikue Kimura (Liquiy), starts with a serious monologue by Mika Doi (Director Eclipse) but she is later interrupted by Liquiy and it suddenly becomes something of a comedy, with Liquiy nicknaming Eclipse "Ecky" (that's about all I got out of it unfortunately). The audio is played over to a (rather nice) starfield effect and the menu (which is front loading) has a rather nice little intro animation that I'll try and upload somewhere later along with a few screencaps.

--edit--
I also found this tucked away on the bonus DVD.

Added some screenshots to the album, and also made a quick and dirty PSP-format rip of the menu animation which you can see here.
