DVD Review: Ultraman Tiga Volume 4

After a long delay from an original August release, I finally got my hands on the last episodes of one of the best Ultraman series ever made.

Presentation: G- Mislabeling disc two on the back cover. No booklet. The menus look the same from the last volume only with a gold background. This volume wasn't delayed so that FUNimation could do a good job on the packaging...

Audio & Video: B+ It's the same quality as the past volumes, so if you were impressed with them then you won't be disappointed with this one.

Content: B+ While the first three episode seemed weak, all of the other episodes are great. Ultraman Tiga faces off against "Evil Tiga," meets the original Ultraman, and there's a satisfying conclusion to a great series.

Extras: C- There's a monster gallery, which features monsters I don't think was even in this set, and "GUTS Top Secret Logs," basically Fox Box junk that gives you a sampling of what the English dub sounded like.

Overall: B FUNimation should be arrested for their cruel treatment of this set, but I'm happy just to have the rest of the series finally.
