I can only presume Gunbuster is one of those things that's relatively expensive to licence and western distributors are concerned it might not make them any profit (it was released under Bandai's former premium label Honneamise in the US, as was the movie set (via Beez) in the UK, which makes me think it's something they expect people to pay premium prices for).</blockquote>
