On Sky Target.2 review, I said that I'd pick up the Peach version of these, too. I bet some of you didn't believe me. Then again, if you knew that I bought two copies of the entire Princess Tutu DVD sets, you wouldn't have doubted me.

Now that I have these, I can confirm that the discs have different contents. Even the menus are different. Let's go through the differences, shall we?

Image1: Cover image for Peach version features a male character. This makes sense since the Peach version is marketed "for girls."
Image2: In contrast, Sky version features a female character on the cover.
Image3: Peach's tri-fold pack contains two postcards, a booklet, and some band-aid. That's right! Band-aid! Notice how the female character image is on the DVD silkscreen. Not seen in the image is a makeup pen also included in the package.
Image4: Sky's quad-fold pack contains 10 picture cards, a booklet, and an instruction for making your own character-cards from the picture cards and the blank cards that are included. The booklet is identical in both versions. Notice how the male character image is on the DVD silkscreen. Basically, the cover image and the DVD silkscreen image are reversed between the two versions.
Image5: Screenshot from the special video clip, only available in the Peach version. That's the director and Miyamoto Shun'ichi (singer of the opening theme). Apple sure is popular in Japan.
Image6: Recording of the opening theme.

So, there we have it. To put it bluntly, Peach version is cheaper, has more video content, and has more useful items. You never know when a band-aid might come in handy. Seriously, those picture cards in Sky version are useless because most people wouldn't dare cut up the cards to make character-cards. I will be following their video contents carefully and choose based on that. After all, video content is the most important part of these DVDs.
