Okay, so I got my Princess Tutu DVDs today, and I think they were worth the $45. I didn't get a chance to watch much as I have six poems due by Wendsday, but from what I saw so far the actors who do Duck and Fakir are ADORABLE. I have a feeling the dub will really grow on me. Also, ans sexy as Rue looks on the cover... seriously, Rue alone, on the cover? Did I miss the part where this was about someone called Princess Tutu?

Also, I watched the first episode of Merlin this weekend and the vids I've seen made the show look much, much better than it is. Seriously, Merlin? If you're going to pick fights with knights, please have the brains to make up for you lack of martial prowess. Secondly, do not spend the pilot episode whining about how you want to be special and then whining about how suddenly a dragon is telling you that you're special. It doesn't work like that. It makes me really want to read/watch a story were someone longs to be special and have a destiny, gets one, and then is like HELL YEAH.

^_^ I am in love with Luci Christian and Chris Patton. They work together amazingly, and both are very skilled. I used to watch only dubs for no real reason, now I watch subs unless one of those two, or someone like Crispin Freeman is featured.

The packaging of the set sort of bothers me. For such a vibrant series, I don't get why the box is. . .muddy brown. Or why the art is missing from the physical discs. What is up with that?

I want to see Merlin, but I know that when I finally do, all it's going to make me want to do is go and read a lot of Jane Yolen.

The packaging has received much, much negative commentary.

I suspect what happened is that a random marketting person who knows nothing about the show was put in charge and just chose the most striking official image they could find.
