I was kind of hoping we'd get a replacement or refund out of the deal! I 
never expected Miyazaki to do pinku eiga. I wonder what kind of apology 
would be possible in a case like this. ("We're sorry that our customers 
didn't have the proper equipment to view the DVD. . ."?)

By the way, I don't know if it's new or not but there's now a Hong Kong 
(Panorama) release of Suwa's H-Story on DVD. I've only watched about 10 
minutes so far but it looks really interesting. . . . . . . . . . . .
