My boyfriend and I were at Best Buy one day, checking out the Blu-Ray discs...he pointed out this Gunbuster/Diebuster set, and I was amazed. Gunbusted (not Diebuster) was an anime that I grew up with, and I was floored to see it offered in HD!

The undeniable superior quality of Blu-ray movies is what made my husband and I go from owning no Blu-ray movies to this stack within one week of getting a player.
