Description:
The Gunsmith Cats OVAs were based on the manga of the same name, created by famous manga artist Kenichi Sonoda. Gunsmith Cats is a semi-reboot of Mr. Sonoda's Riding Bean manga, which was also made into an anime. Both Riding Bean and another Sonoda-related anime, Otaku no Video, have been released as limited-edition Blu-ray sets.

The Basic Set includes the all 3 OVAs in both English and Japanese on a max-bitrate BD50 all-region high-definition disc.

The disc itself has multiple subtitle variants -- colored (color-blind friendly), colored SDH, captioned SDH (similar to "Netflix-style") and captioned English SDH. There are 3 commentary tracks - two in Japanese featuring Kenichi Sonoda, Arai Masahiro, Kazaana Takanori, Mori Takeshi and Satō Hiroki, and one in English featuring Matt Greenfield and Tiffany Grant (OVA 1), Bennett the Sage and Marc Swint (OVA 2) and Amanda Winn Lee and Kimberly Yates (OVA3).

On-disc extras also include the original production documentary, an updated production documentary, a how-to-draw tutorial by Mr. Sonoda, an artwork slideshow, a clean version of the opening credits, a list of all the project backers (as of the time we went into production), and more.

The basic set comes in an amaray case with a reversible cover slip and a 9-panel insert which contains a new original poster and a list of all the backers. It also includes sticker sheet suitable for adorning your laptop or vehicle. And just to be nice, we threw in a second copy of the sticker sheet and two postcards!
