While idly browsing Dub Review, I came across this interesting thread:

http://www.dubreview.com/forum/index.php?act=ST&f=4&t=416&p=3519

I'll have to enquire of Amazon if it's in stock!

Alas, the FUNimation English versions (which are very beautifully sung by Laura Bailey, the English voice of Honda Tooru) will apparently not be featured ... :( the thread explains all.

Admittedly, this happened too when Viz redid the Ranma OAV songs into English with "DoCo USA" (and I thought the English reversions of Love Panic! and Where Do We Go From Here were even better than the original Japanese ones), but I got around that problem simply by ripping the audio from the DVD, and I guess I'll just do that for these and make one *big* soundtrack.
