Appleseed: Ex Machina

That is going to seriously give them some pain in the wallet then.
Either they learn to put english subtitles on the japanese versions and I will happily import, or they put japanese tracks on the english releases or they can rot.

This is the conundrum, seriously

You want the releases fast, then Japanese tracks are definately a point of contention. While it's certainly possible there will be a Japanese release on Blu at some point that will have subs. There is no "learn" involved, it's called protecting your territory, and since region coding can't do it, you have to make it undesireable to that audience.

I have submitted this question to the WB people to see if it's just an error, but I have the feeling it's not.
