Well, the one I care most about, MI, gets a new telecine. Definite buy. UY doesn't mention anything about the masters, which is probably a bad sign. If UY did get a new telecine I'd probably go for it as well. Ranma I don't really care about, and just says a new master, which is just weasel words and can mean anything (anything usually being a bad thing) .

This is great news. I will definitely be buying these when they come out. Maison Ikkoku is my favorite Rumiko Takahashi series.

Hm no Inu Yasha. Why am I not surprised. Oh well, still good to see more stuff getting BD boxes...

Not sure what the Ranma DVDs look like, but I sure as hell hope they don't try and pass off the ancient composite masters for UY as BD-worthy...

Pretty sure all of the 1st Inu Yasha series is all digitally animated in SD so there wouldn't be much of an improvement, but BD boxes will probably come out eventually.

Amazing news. Can't wait for these -- the pastel colors of this show are going to look fantastic on BD!

I'll probably have to get this and (depending on how it looks) Urusei Yatsura. Damn, this is going to be expensive.

The UY movies, on the other hand I would happily purchase with no complaints.
