Does anyone know where I can get a couple of episodes of Pretear. I've been
trying to download them from Kazaa, but I can't seem to get #10,#11 and #13.
Please someone help.


Thanks,
Kim

ADV be releasing them sometime but I hear this company called Odex released
them legit a long time ago, but don't know much about them. I think there's a
review of the Odex DVDs on animeondvd.com

The Odex DVDs are, in translation quality, about equivalent to a middling to
good fansub.  As English isn't their first language it's extremely coherent,
but there's a few articles missing, a few liberties taken ("Himeno no baka!"
is translated as "Himeno, you're the stupidest girl I've ever met!" which
isn't actually that much of a deviation but it might offend a few people),
and a few oddities (the characters say "Yap!" sometimes).  There's no
extras, but the video quality is absolutely gorgeous - whether the series is
just naturally beautiful I don't know, but it's extremely crisp and fluid.
The big advantage to the Odex Pretear is/was it's out already, and it's dirt
cheap - thirty British pounds including postage for an entire 13 episode
series obtained legally is a steal.  Plus, the show is great fun, and has
the advantage for a mahou shoujo show of being very short, so there's not
much time for filler.

And it has lots of angsty bishounen for those who don't much like the
magical girl aspect!
