I just rented on of Tokyopop's DVD's for first stage to find out about the "enhanced video" they were advertising. The CG is a lot crisper, but it seems to stick out more like a sore thumb now then before. The American voice actors are also horrible. They changed the names for most of the characters:

Takumi -- Tak
Itsuki -- Iggy
Iketani -- Cole

Why change it? I liked there names before, I've got no interest in them once they are this bland. The final alteration was the music. I happen to like 90's Japanese techno. Now its some sort of low-grade hip-hop.
