FUNimation is kicking off its support of the Blu-ray format by releasing one of its biggest anime franchises, Dragon Ball Z this winter. Dragon Ball Z Broly: The Legendary Super Saiyan and Broly: Second Coming are due on store shelves November 13th, fully remastered in 1080p directly from the original Japanese 35mm film, along with a new 5.1 surround sound mix and HD special features. No word on pricing yet, but FUNimation expects to follow up by releasing other popular catalog titles in high definition as well.

It should mention that it is rumored that the HD version of the shows will not have their original aspect ratios.

I'll wait until Toei Animation releases them in Japan. With different aspect ratios, 5.1 (ENGLISH) sound. I'd rather have the original Japanese version in 5.1 and bumped up to 1080p, no region-lock on Blu-Ray anyway.

Um, they announced the price already of $34.95.
Of note is that these are movies 8 & 10 on the same disc. So those wanting numerical order will be disappointed.
