I have noticed that there are director cuts of the neon genesis series coming out..well two so far.. I was wondering if anyone knew if the entire set was being re-released in director cuts? Thanks a bunch!!!

only the last episodes got the directors cut because frankly, with animation it's hard to NOT get the directors vision the first time.
this is the same thing that was released some time ago in japan. Just some minor stuff added in. worth it if you are a fan, otherwise I would say it's nothing big.

If I remember correctly they came out with a really nice and really expensive remastered Dir Cut boxed set out in japan about a yr or 2 ago. I think it might have been a limited edition.
Don't expect any r1 director cuts any time soon. I belive Gainix wanted too much money for the rights.

Nope,
NGE has masters for the original series, the directors cut, and Revival. ADV is releasing the DC masters (for the DC), so they are "remastered" from the original release (also redubbed in parts to fill in the holes of added footage).

I think we will eventually get the revival set here, but I 100% doubt that we will get anything near that packaging. At best we could hope for yet another Paul Champagne metal box.
