Anyone who forks out money for something they like, in their right minds, would want the non-defect copy. There's still value to a defected copies though, maybe one day it will be sold on ebay as a rare collector's treasure. |

You'd really be willing to wait a month for a new copy due to one single line mis-read and a misprint in the booklet? Also, I don't think the "Defect" copies will be rare. I doubt most people will go out of their way to replace them and wait a month for such a minor thing. |

Really stupid not to. Plus you can just rip it into your computer and burn it again while you wait. |

Really stupid not to. Plus you can just rip it into your computer and burn it again while you wait. Because to me, those issues are really minor and I probably wouldn't even notice if it wasn't for a recall notice. I never read booklets, and from what it sounds like of the "mis-recording", its just didn't go by the script correctly or something. Even if I knew Japanese, I doubt I would of been able to tell that unless I watched that 2nd episode several times and memorized all of the lines. Basically it comes down to "Do I send back this BD and wait a month to get it back, when the 'defects' don't matter to me one bit?", and I say no, it isn't worth it. If it was like bad timing on the audio, or some messed up scenes, or something that actually matters, then sure I would. |

| Misrecording thing was pretty hilarious. Mami spoke same thing twice in the certain scene. |
| Sigh. Kyubey wants that contract that badly? |

But why the hell are you buying the Blu-Rays/DVDs if you don't want the extras that I come with it? Well if you support the industry then (Y). |

"Your taste is shit cause you like what I hate. Believe me I have 1000 cartoons that I rated with less than 5."  |
| personally, i don't think these are major defects that they have to do a recall.. though i don't have one, since i'm not from Japan, even if i do have that Blu ray disc, a "defect" in the lyrics booklet, or in a single line which i won't understand anyway, is too lame an excuse for a recall.. on another note: dtshyk said: According to Mainichi, 22,000 copies of Madoka Blu-ray have been sold on the release day. *22,000* *looks at old thread on Blu Ray sales* *sees chart topper* *8,000+ in one week* *Madoka: 22,000 on release day* oh god. this is epic. |

| LOL, and I thought fan-subbing was bad lately, but it seems even official BDs get v2s. |
| Damn it Kyubey!!!!! |

| aniplex seems to fail... alot at there quality control.... and a screw up on Mami's line? unforgivable! |

| Whoever made a contract to screw up Vol 1 should be beaten with a sack full of barnacles. |

Aurao said: ringoo4 said: Misrecording thing was pretty hilarious. Mami spoke same thing twice in the certain scene. Which line was that exactly? When Mami shows her Soul Gem to Madoka and Sayaka, she says "They [Soul Gems] are created when a girl chosen by Kyubey forms a contract". In the defective BD version, she repeats what she earlier said (it was one of the first lines in her apartment) - "Being chosen by Kyubey means you're involved in this". Apart from being quite nonsensical, it also means the talk doesn't flow, because Sayaka then asks what the contract is ;) EDIT: BTW, if you're interested in the booklet lyrics mistake part, see http://wiki.puella-magi.net/See_You_Tomorrow |

| It doesn't bother me too much, so I will keep my copy. I might get another copy though later down the line though.(Not an obsessive collector but I've been getting quite a few things. |
| Looking at posts on the Internet wouldn't bother me so much if people didn't also mix up he and she. |
Ousto said: Still, the only defect that I find worthy of recall is the line they messed up. Misprinting lyrics is extremely normal actually, just look at music album booklets more closely and you will see.It's disappointing, considering how expensive DVDs are in Japan. But at least they're offering to fix them, and the defects aren't that huge. |

| I hate you all. |
| As long as it gets serialized to the US, I'll wait an extra month, or months, or years, in any case. If it ever gets over here. Please, I'll sell my soul to Kyubey, just serialize it to America so I can own the DVD! |

Dunno how its in Japan, but here in Germany nothing is without mistakes. And no one gives a damn. |
James95 said: It's a very popular series. Mantaining top quality is the most important task they now have. And considering all the work SHAFT has put into the BD/DVD releases, I say they take it very seriously.agent535 said: dtshyk said: According to Mainichi, 22,000 copies of Madoka Blu-ray have been sold on the release day. *22,000* *looks at old thread on Blu Ray sales* *sees chart topper* *8,000+ in one week* *Madoka: 22,000 on release day* oh god. this is epic.

| They did a good job of fucking themselves here. |
