Maybe I'm an idiot, but I'm pretty sure some of those DVD's are FAKE!
Don't ban me if I'm wrong, please, I'm only posting a sighting of suspicious DVD's!!!

Oh, and BTW, I found this on meganimedvd.com, I found a Chobits BOXED SET:

...Here are photos, Note the Green "M" in the Digi Charat Boxed Set! Manga International's symbol, If I'm not mistaken, and that a bootleg company. PLUS What are the odds of having 26 episodes on a 3 DVD set?!

Huh? Does it matter? I love those subs. =\ They're so much cheaper... who the heck cares if the translation and typing of the subtitles seem like they were done by an intoxicated person? >_>

They're not fake, per se... they just aren't official. =\ The video quality is, for the most part, fine, and the subtitles are really the only thing you need to worry about. If it bothers you that much, then dish out the extra $30-something for the official versions of the anime. (Actually... it'd be like.... 10 times the amount of money since whoever makes the stupid official DVDs only puts 4 episodes on each disc.)

XP I guess I just don't really have a problem downloading anime or buying the bootlegs. o_O; If I really like the animes, I'll buy other things to show my support. (Such as with Yuugiou. I buy the bootlegs since I have no other way of seeing the originals... but I also buy the legitimate manga, CDs, posters, and other licensed things. Same with other animes.)
