I won't spoil much for you, but this DVD is awesome. The enemy is not who you might expect, in fact, I can pretty much guarantee it. The emotions of the males and females reach an all time high as the women finally lose their cool with the 'insufferable' men. Hibiki is without a doubt one of the better lead characters in a while. Now I just have to wait until Second Stage is out!

This last DVD has a lot more action than the previous discs. As the series goes on there are more and more questions being brought up about the universe in which all this is taking place, which I think is a pretty good combination of great fun with some very good story elements. Hibiki is growing up, Dita is maturing (a bit anyway). I would give this DVD 5 stars if it weren't for the fact that although there are good plot twists, they don't really have any effect on the current situation aboard the Nirvana, nor are any questions answered, just more brought up.
! This is the last DVD of the first season! It took me a bit of research to figure it out, but this is a sort of "season finale". Season two is Vandread: Second Stage.

As always the DVD itself is in a cool metallic cover and has the now standard extras, non credit openings and art. This DVD also has poster style pictures of the mecha and characters, which I thought was really cool. The ending song is really catchy by the way, and I would totally recommend the audio CDs released. The special effects in this disc continue to please the eyes. CG battle scenes are fun to watch. This was a pretty fun first series, and I can tell you that after seeing the next few episodes of Second Stage, my interest is even more piqued for the entire story!

WARNING = Hastings will cancel your order and not tell you. This leaves you hanging wondering what happened with your order. You must call them to find out what happened and they are very snotty on the phone. I've bought tons from them via Amazon and directly but will never do so again. Be warned, they may cancel your order and not inform you! Very bad company and horrible customer service. If you really want your item buy it elsewhere, save yourself the trouble. I now have to rush out and buy my items elsewhere just days from Christmas. A real pain in the backside. You've been warned.

Loved it! Just as described. Will buy from this seller again.

Hibiki gets a REAL taste of war when he ends up on a ship operated by both men and women together, and they are attacked for the "Harvest." The reason for the separation of male and female becomes clear as the main battleships come to collect the "Harvest" from the Nirvana's crew's home planets.

The Nirvana is in deep DEEP trouble when they have to destroy a battleship, but it takes all their wits AND resources to destroy just one. How are they going to handle five?

This becomes more interesting as it goes along, and manages to keep it funny at the same time. The interaction between men and women is just hilarious and all the foibles of communication we have is pushed to the extreme. Men are from Mars, Women from Venus indeed!

This episode envolves the women locking every man up in cells and dosen't wanna work or live with them. Somebody helps them escape, I forget who but Hibiki runs away on his Vanguard and lands on a fleet of ships and finds out that earth is going to "Harvest" evry last living soul. he tries to help but almost gets killed. He goes back to the space ship and tells every body about the "Harvest". Does andbody know if that survival series box contains every episode of vandread or just stg2 or stg1 please write under this review for Vol.4 Stg.1 "Pressure"

Well this is mostly on the last epic of stage one....The crew engaged in a battle against, what look like, more evily looking Vandreads of Dita,Meia, and Jura. Hibiki and Dita combinded and fight against them. But its loaded with cool spedical affects, espicelly at the end of the battle. But this is not the end of the loved serises rumors have it of Vandread third stage but that heard to be called Vandread: Eternal Voyage...
