Is there any way to watch this without buying DVDs or pirating? I saw it posted a few weeks ago and went looking and came up blank other than purchasing physical media

Check out your local library. Most have a selection of DVDs that can be rented at no cost. If your local library doesn't have it, interlibrary loans can get you pretty much anything.

This is how I get most of the TV shows and movies that I watch, now that streaming services are fragmenting into uselessness.

Sunrise Studios, who made the Anime, has a streaming agreement with b-ch.com - But the entire site is in Japanese, and I don't know if they have any regional IP blocks.
