Well whaddayaknow...
Jubei Ninpucho - Ryuhougyoku hen (Ninja Scroll)
Doesn't seem to have subtitles, and a bit on the expensive side, but it does seem to come with both Japanese and English audio though making it somewhat import friendly. Can't really tell if the audio will be lossless, to little information, but nice to know this classic is finally on its way. Could an American release from Manga be far behind now?

This has been on the radar in the anime thread for a little while now. It will likely show up in foreign markets after a certain period of time on the Japanese market.

The old manga 10th anniversary dvd was great with both eng/jp audio and fullscreen/16:9 versions. Hope something similar comes along.

I feel like I live in a third-world country every time I look at Japanese Blu-ray prices.

Is 2.0 original audio since this new edition only contains that for japanese language? And the old UK DVD version has Japanese DTS ES 6.1 discrete and
Japanese Dolby Digital EX 5.1.

I think it is. Manga had this thing for upmixing a lot of their old releases, just look at Ghost in the Shell for example. Whereas the Japanese blu-ray had an LPCM 2.0 track, their special edition DVD had DTS 6.1 ES and Dolby Digital 5.1 EX mixes
