[EVA] Gunbuster R1 release music edit

[Ayanami]

<pre>Probably, though they mostly say that it was done
by the creators (which I have trouble believing), and
that we should buy the R0 if we don't like it.

What strikes me is that it's gone unchanged in the US
for 15 years, including a release in December. It
makes no sense.

I'm the one who caught it by the way.

The text translations are also practically
non-existent. The excerpt rom Kazumi's speech that
starts off episode three is left completely
untranslated. It's not even in the booklet. Even US
Renditions covered that one.

I'm guessing that there had to be legal issues
somewhere...
