I dunno what to say, this one keeps me almost speechless, 650 minutes of great Anime.
There's a good review that fits, read it right here .
This is so true, rarely do I start to care for the characters but this ones different. If you're into Anime and it's not yet in your collection, buy it, it's worth it. I have the limited collectors box, all 6 DVD and the soundtrack CD in a very nice box.There is also a tremendously original presentation of the characters. Each character is unique, no two being even remotely the same, and yet none of them are ever delved into anymore then they have to be. With each character, we are given what we need to know to understand their part in the story, yet never given more then we have to. In that way, the characters become even more real. I truly wanted to know more about this universe and the characters in it when the series ended, yet I didn’t find anything that was “necessary” missing from the series. That fact was what really told me at the end of the final episode that this series had left a major impact on me and that these characters were really ones I cared about.
I finally found a place to get RC1 DVD's shipped to Germany, http://www.dvdboxoffice.com/ , they have good prices compared to what I have to pay here for Anime, free international shipping AND the english dub is so much better than the german dubs (that's why I want RC1 DVDs). Only the shipping takes a while (~2 weeks) but I'm not in a hurry.
Right now I'm trying to figure out what to order this month, either another of those big collectors boxes or a few single DVD's.
