DVD Yin Yang Master
Pioneer USA

image

Spotless, we could have expected some more depth for such a recent film, but there's nothing worth quibbling about. The frame is the kind which slightly distorts the image when you view it on your TV's full screen mode, too bad.

sound

Sober but good 5.1 Japanese track, better sounding apparently than the English dubbed one from what I gather.

subtitles

Excellent, well sized, well located yellow subtitles. Other data appear in white in the upper part, this is very cleverly done.

special features

This special edition is bonus-packed, with interviews of the staff among other stuff, the only regret is not to have Hiroyuki Sanada nor any other actor expressing himself anywhere.

menus

Disappointing since the cover which was advertised (the one which appears here) has been replaced by a more conventional one. Nice animated menus.

quality/price ration

Fair, good way to discover this Japanese hit which is still little known.
