Anime What do you think of Funimation's S.A.V.E. releases?

They're awesome. I don't have to spend as much money on anime now.

They suck. I'd prefer a DVD/Blu-Ray case without that ugly green bar.

So for those who don't know, Funimation is releasing some of their shows under the S.A.V.E. line, which basically means they'll slap a puke-green bar across the original release's link/link and rerelease it under a lower and slightly more affordable price. They're doing this for both DVD and Blu-Ray releases.

So far, I've bought one show under the S.A.V.E. line, and that is Heroic Age on Blu-Ray. I personally love this idea, but from what I've read, they're only doing this with titles that have sold poorly. That basically means that a show will only get the S.A.V.E. treatment if it does piss-poor in sales... and I think it's common knowledge that anything doing piss-poor in sales is a bad thing.

... and I apologize if I come off as... yeah, I can't think of a word right now. Anyways, when I went onto forums to read about S.A.V.E., a common complaint I saw was the bar (which I surprisingly have to agree with. I don't mind the bar, but I think it could've been placed better), so that's why I worded the second choice that way.

I don't get why the green thing gets so many people peeved off. I don't know about the DVD's, but with the Blu-ray S.A.V.E. editions, you can take out the cover and flip it over, and it looks just like an original release. xD
