Has anybody purchased this? I'm rather curious as to how these discs stand up to the single disc American releases? Are the special features the same? Is the picture and sound quality good? Any help anyone can give would be much appreciated.

panik house took two of the films from the set and released them separately - they're the same discs, of course. and it's not an exclusive to anywhere that i know of.

These two films are not part of the Pinky Violence set - they are stand alone releases. The exclusive part of this package is the box that holds the discs and the "tattoo sleeve."

didnt check the links.
yes, 'female yakuza tale' and 'sex and fury' were earlier panik house releases for america initially.

financial troubles at the company seem to caused these to be sub-licensed to companies in other countries - but you should be able to find the cheaper american editions still :

So the box set is just the regular R2 releases together with a tattoo sleeve?Which means that basically unless I really want that sleeve thingy (which, hey, I kind of do), I should get the superior R1 discs? Gotcha. Thanks.
