Great, just great. AV Watch reports that VAP will release Mamoru Hosoda und Satoko Okudera’s award-winning and highly awaited anime Summer Wars on Blu-ray Disc and DVD in Japan on March 3, 2010. Just as expected, the article does not mention English subtitles for these releases and judging from VAP’s Blu-ray Disc release history so far I don’t think they will suddenly be added after all
But since the Warner Bros. logo appeared in most of the trailers released for the film so far, I still hope that the brothers will do their best to bring the film to the West with understandable subtitles soon enough…

After the first five minutes of Mamoru Hosoda and Satoko Okudera’s Summer Wars have already been posted back in July, four more minutes have appeared online and show us some more beside the visitor’s tour to the virtual world of OZ.
Sadly no English subtitles are available…

…except in the music video for the song “The World of OZ” performed by the South-Korean band Clazziquai, even though they sing perfectly understandable English.

Summers Wars: Virtual Five Minutes Tour through OZ

Still feeling lost in the virtual world of OZ in Mamoru Hosoda and Satoko Okudera’s Summer Wars?
Fear not, as the Japanese marketing machine has brought us an almost five minutes long tour or rather tutorial just a few days before the theatrical opening on August 1st. If you listen closely, you can even hear the original English (I guess OZ is pretty international) narrator over the Japanese voice over. The clip also shows a few new scenes from the “real” world, but nothing too spectacular.

Update: According to ANN, the video above shows the first five minutes of the film!
