I actually have the Japanese blu ray of "Angel Guts: Red Porno". While I love the film, especially the cinematography, the blu ray itself is kind of mediocre. It's 1080i and has some minor banding issues towards the end. Also, there were a couple of moments of optical censorship, although that can't be helped. I'll probably upgrade to the French blu ray.
