You canclick here for my full reviewof the movie itself, but I also had a chance to check out the Blu-ray release thanks to FUNimation. The story is just as much fun to watch the second time around, so it’s worth the pick-up for that alone if you’re anMHAfan and/or a completionist. There’s not much to speak of in the special features, as is FUNimation’s way, but they do have an exclusive chat with the English-language cast, includingChristopher Sabat,Justin Briner,Erica Mendez,Keith Silverstein, andRay Chase.
