Ah, good, good. Now, hopefully they'll include the box...

US is region 1, Australia's region 4. Anyhoo, importing DVDs from the US costs a bundle (~$60AU per DVD). I'd rather wait till I can buy them locally for $30 each.

Still no word on a release date, though...

Has this actually been officially confirmed by Madman, or are they just still negotiating with Bandai?

I can afford the DVDs once they come out... and now that I've rigged up extra coolant fans inside my PC I can play them for more than an hour at a time...

only problem is, ALL my money will go into those DVDs... but that dub is so bad I'd be happy to pay an extra $7 australian per DVD to get rid of it...

if you dont want the dub, you're better off buying the HK dvd set which is one of the best. (audio is a bit lower than the official dvd, probably one or two steps)

now count in the amount of money it'll cost me to import them to australia, and I'll be better off buying the Madman release here... thanks for the advice anyway.

Curse you all... I live in the UK, and we're not likely to see Love Hina on DVD (even VHS) for another two years. I could import them from Japan seeing as it's Region 2 n' all, but there's no subs obviously. Even if it is terrible, I'd still listen to the english dub, or at least have the option for it.
