Okay… so recently I bought this product, and it’s a GREAT series, I’ll give it that, it’s got comedy, fanservice, action, everything really.
But inside my box when I opened it up, I noticed I have disc 1, 4, 3, 4, 5, and 6… no disc 2, but two disc 4s, and unfortunately there’s no real way to like… correct this so I’ll prolly just have to buy a seperate disc 2 and swap it out for the extra disc 4(and hopefully the individual dvds are the same as the ones that come in the box set), unfortunately the individual discs no matter where I’ve gone cost more than I paid for the boxset itself. And it was factory sealed, so it’s not like someone swapped it, it is just an anomally that occured and I’m wondering if this has happened to anyone else?

This is the craziest series I’ve seen in a while. It is for Mature audiences, but they mix things together to give you something funny to laugh at. How about a tough enemy and the Desert Punk fighting each other and then they end up throwing rocks and shooting rubber bands at one another. It sounds stupid but if you saw this fight, you’d die laughing at how funny it was.

This is a great anime if you like boobs and crude humor which I do. It really is more something a guy might like, but I really usually relate to my guy friends humor more than my girl friends. It has a lot of jiggling boobs, an anti-hero main character, and some really amazing ideas of how to get out of tight spot. If you looking for semi-light hearted entertainment this is great! I say semi-light hearted only because they are living in a merciless desert and survival is everyone’s main priority.

I had never heard of Desert Punk before seeing it here and reading the reviews. I don’t regret this purchase at all. Its kind of childish , but definitely not for kids. The humor catches you off guard and sometimes I’m like “Did they really say that”. So if you want a 6 disc set thats not too much more than a new release movie , then buy this set. You get several hours of viewing , a collectors tin and cool art. A win in my book.

Great purchase! Thats all I can really say I watched this series non-stop for 3 months because i loved it so much. I am happy that I purchased this set.
The set comes in crappy little plastic cases, but that doesnt take away from the quaility of the show. Im not much for purchase presentation when it comes to movies, as long as the picture is high quality and the show rocks. which it does. This review probably wasnt very helpful, but i assume that anyone thinking about purchasing this collection has seen the show and is just debating wether or not to shell out the cash-do it!
