After i noticed it was Region 1, i already did some research about it, but didn't really find an 100% answer (neither on wikipedia or some random google results about the matter). Hence my question.

I'm thinking it will work (on both my PC and DVD player), but i'm reading a bit to much "should"s to be 100% sure. Just looking for a little confirmation from someone in Europe.

The DVD should work out of the box if the drive you're using is already region free or supports multiple regions.

If it isn't, there are certain software applications that can be used to override the region coding. I won't mention them here, but they should be easy to find.

Most of the time you can also manually change a computer DVD drive's region a certain number of times, usually up to 5. It's not particularly difficult either.

So you see, it's not a matter of confirmation but something that depends on your specific situation.

Hadn't read about the software applications yet. Shouldn't pose any problem then, even if my DVD player is region bound.

Thx for all the help, going to place my order later today!

If you can watch DVDs, then you'll be fine.

You can always run a VM and set the DVD program on the VM to Region 1. But that's getting fancy.

The anime was great but I didn't like the ending. I played the VN and did Cal's route and liked her true ending much more than the anime ending.

Just watched this series, I must say the studio must be some of the biggest trolls I've ever seen.

The ending felt like it was edited in after the actual anime is completed for the sake of pissing viewers off. I mean, why else would they randomly create a character who's only role is to kill the main character, no explanations or context given, at the last minute of the show? And this occurred after the happy ending finished?

To those who believe there is some kind of metaphorical meaning behind this, maybe there is, but what we have here is a happy ending, and then followed by a scene where the MC got shot. Surely there must be a limit to how much absurdity a story can have for the sake of some symbolic meaning, and this is definitely crossing the line.

To retain some level of enjoyment, it seems I must force myself to ignore the last scene, as the only way to stop trolls is to ignore them.

Depends how you interpreted the ending. To me it seemed like intentional double suicide, instead of some random guy popping them with a bullet.

My thoughts precisely. I feel like the anime producers simply put that in there for "shock value." I do not really see what the rhyme or reason was for it. Was it to prove a point that they are indeed "phantoms?" I don't know and I don't like it.

Regardless, it was a 10/10 anime for 99.99% of the series.
