City Hunter: The Complete First Series
Description: Ryo Saeba, the legendary City Hunter, is a first-class sweeper for hire, taking on jobs from protecting beautiful women to taking out bad guys permanently. He can be a private detective or hitman, whatever the case calls for, and it often requires the use of his superhuman marksmanship. But even so, Ryo can't do it alone. His partner is Kaori Makimura, the younger sister of his murdered best friend. Kaori serves as his assistant, while also protecting their attractive clients from Ryo's "mokkori" advances with her trusty supply of 100 ton hammers.
Though they always appear to be at each other's throats, the partners trust each other implicitly when the chips are down, and together they've solved various tough cases. This complete first series collection contains all 51 episodes in 1080p high definition! With the original Japanese language, and English subtitles!
Special Features and Technical Specs:
Hajime No Ippo the Fighting! Fighting Spirit Collection 03
Description: Ippo Makunouchi, pro boxer and rising star, has a dream: to fight Eiji Date, the featherweight boxing champion of Japan. But to do that, he has to claw his way to second place! In the Class A Tournament, Ippo faces his fiercest opponents yet. Even if he makes it past them, does he have a chance against a veteran pugilist like Eiji? Ippo's determined to find out, even if he must pay a steep price. For somewhere beyond every victory in the ring... beyond the champion's belt... lies the answer that he's been searching for: the meaning of strength!
This final collection of the original series includes episodes 49-76, the OVA, and the Champion Road special in 1080p high definition!

Sgt. Frog: The Complete First Season
Description: The frog-like Sergeant Keroro and his platoon are sent to Earth to scope out an invasion, but after a mishap, they're abandoned by the main force and taken in by an average teenager, Fuyuki Hinata, and his bossy big sister, Natsumi. Though plans for another invasion attempt proceed, Sarge soon settles into the rhythm of modern Tokyo and becomes addicted to anime and making plastic models. Meanwhile, the Hinata household is turned upside down.
The first season of this madcap sci-fi/comedy classic introduces most of the series' supporting cast of oddballs, including Keroro's platoon: the cute, mild-mannered Private 2nd Class Tamama, who's prone to flying into an insane jealous rage whenever anyone gets too close to his sergeant; the hot-temperedCorporal Giroro, the only soldier who takes the invasion plans seriously; Sergeant Major Kururu, the arrogant intelligence officer and inventor who comes up with outlandish devices, purely for his own amusement; and Lance Corporal Dororo, the kind ninja soldier who tends to get left out.
