Another double pack release and no real surprises here. I own both releases, so it will be a pass for me on this...

This seems to me an odd combination for a double pack

I already have the Nadesico movie, and have no real interest in Saiyuki, so this is a pass.

It's an okay cover for the Saiyuki side. I'm going to pass on this since I don't have an interest in Saiyuki or the Nadesico movie (even though I have the Nadesico TV series).

Never! Anything that has the Nadesico movie is officially forgotten .

Another one that I don't have either or title. However, I'm not going after this one.

Honestly, I think ADV just picks two series at random in order to decide what the next double pack will be. Just wait they'll pair a gore filled action series with a cutesy series.

Almost the same case for me as well. The difference being that rather than own the Nadesico Movie, I have access to it through a relative. So, yeah I'm stingy.

I have to admit that I also find the choice of these two particular titles to be...peculiar.

Or something like pairing up a gag series (Papuwa) with a raunchy comedy (Golden Boy).

For great justice!

Actually, both are tragic titles dealing with sins of the past affecting the present.

It makes sense for them being grouped together if you remember both features.
