FUNimation Quickie: December 15, 2008

[ace4817]

(continued from last comment) please YouTube is dying and you can help it by not removing every video that violates copyright law, think of your fans, think with your heart, soul, and mind, not some dumb old legal documents, please, read through this comment several times, I hope that in the end you agree with me

[ace4817]

Hey you guys at FUNimation, could you please let people upload dragonball dragonball z and dragonball GT episodes to YouTube? It's just a video streaming website, no money that I know of is made off of them, in someways you could benefit from it, people would see some of your videos in the related videos section, possibly click on them and watch more and more of your shows, and buy your products, etc. And if you won't let other people upload them at least do it yourself, please, YouTube is diei

[ebwje]

Scott Porter!? As in Re-Porter?

[BOKU0801]

I didn't read it.

[SSJTrunks91]

Toast Toast!

[johnnyzelda]

I really hope they do Kodocha episodes 52-102. I heard that there are now thinking about it!

[ChidoriShiori]

Full metal alchemist WHOOT! :DDD

[htmlnerdxx]

"six plus--"

"four. i need four tacos. and i want a receipt this time."

"why did you say four tacos? why did you say four tacos?"

"oh im sorry, did you want one?"

"suuuuuuuuure..."

ROTFLMAO.

[bde12000]

fucking americans

[benneil]

tell me Funimation do ever see show that is not from usa jut liakc monty python's flying circus,red dwarf,Wallace & Gromit. if not well see them.

[Unit545]

Awesome video guys! :D I can't wait for fma

[yuki23eiri]

LOL I see the 10 but he doesn't? XD

[ultimatechakralives]

Come on funi. If you mention any geneon titles then it's not worth it to get excited. We want titles that haven't been licensed.

[anubisx00]

It's looking like a lot of license saves from Geneon. This is nice, but I hope there is at least 4 brand new ones.

[ultimatechakralives]

To be honest, I don't think ikki tousen should count because its already dubbed by geneon. After looking at a clue, zetsubou sensei's next. After looking at the clues, anyone else think what's next? And I want to here the ones not licensed yet.

[SoulBloodAlchemist]

Today was Ikki Tousen

[cherryberry1515]

kodocha season 2 :D i love that show!!!

[RyuShoji]

oo 10 new shows..

Is one of them Soul Eater? after all, you guys did send C&D letters to fansubbers of it.

And production of Baccano has wrapped up?

[Jerraldtheman]

It doesn't seem that they are puting trailer of Kanon or Air on the channel neither.

[Jerraldtheman]

(fixed) funimation seems to don't care about those animes.

[Jerraldtheman]

(facepalms) it's because they were used to be owned by ADV films, funimation doe seem to don't care those animes. that's what i'm thinking

[Bpower101]

Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei

Seto no Hanayome

Please I beg you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jerraldtheman]

In response to Bpower101, why can't you just be patience? if you want all of your shows including Air and Kanon that funimation had, you'll just have to wait.

[Bpower101]

Because man those are the 2 I want the most!!!! an there wasting time on other things >_>

[bashmo]

hmm...i dunno there isnt much subbed anime i can think of that can be announced between the 22nd and the new year. Maybe Gintama would be good, but i didnt like it as much as other series.

Great update as usual.

[doctordoom85]

My ideal 10:

Evangelion 1.0, Soul Eater, Gintama, Shakugan no Shana Season 2, One Piece movies (especially 4 and 6), Tsubasa Tokyo Revelations, xxxHolic Kei, Higurashi Season 2, Hell Girl Season 2, and the new DBZ OVA (the one about Vegeta's missing brother). Though as long as some get licensed, I'll be happy. Looking forward to the 22nd! :)

[TutuFan101]

I'm so pissed I bought Red Garden volumes 1-5 with the box set and now there being put into a two part box set. Why can't they jut realese the last volume, then the box sets!!!!

[NekoYousei]

Can't wait to hear the licenses...I have a feeling that Vampire Knight will be one of them! :D

[lumcolette2008]

I hope you guys release these titles:

1. Zero No Tsukaima season 2 & 3

2. School Days

3. Higurashi no Naku Koroni Kai (Season 2)

[gewddude]

Will any of these 10 new Animes be shown on the FUNimation Channel?

[BomberDRufi]

Oh I guess Soul Eater would be awesome too, but I stand by Gintama. That show needs to get licensed so bad that it hurts.

So...

Gintama

Soul Eater

And honestly that's all I watch :-P If the two of them get an announcement though I'd die of happiness.

[Bleachallstarz]

yes gintama ftw

[BomberDRufi]

Please please please please pleaseeeeee get Gintama. PLEASE.

[Monocoleboy]

Right on.

[Monocoleboy]

So which anime do you think will make it to the top 10? Here are my picks in my opinion.

1: Soul Eater

2: Higurashi season 2

3: New Full Metal Alchemist series

4: Deltora's quest

5:Sayanora Zetsubou sensei

Sadly those are the only things I hope will make it to the top 10 new shows being obtained soon. What are you're picks to be hopefully obtained by funimation?

[Monocoleboy]

oh yeah just remembered to forget to add in Tales of the Abyss in there D:

[NekoYousei]

The new FMA series hasn't even aired in JAPAN yet!!!

[Monocoleboy]

correct, but hey least it'll be aired in 09. Whatever the case I hope Funimation can get it's rights soon.

[kozk]

Please release Pani Poni Dash!

[lumcolette2008]

Very interesting news ^_^

[LinkFan109]

where can i get the negima! uncut viridian boxset?

[ONVPodcast]

Nick: Sounds good, keep the titles coming. Maybe we'll actually see Ghost Hound or Dennou Coil at some point.

[WordsFromAnOtaku]

I second that!

[angelrose101]

Is it weird that my favorite number is 10? XDD I thought so too. I can't wait for next week's episode!!

[apoptoliptic]

new properties? sweet

[xFruitsBasket]

please Dub shakugan no Shana II

[Pez64]

If the toast meant Yakitate Japan! I'd flip like a pancake. Doubt it but I still have hope.

[SoulBloodAlchemist]

DGrayman soul eater and hell girl 2 sweet

[stomachknives]

im most excited for d.gray-man.

i really wanna know whos gonna be who.

[shippudenman99]

i hope they announce they licenced reborn! on the 27th(my birthday). XD!!!

[dbzrocker910]

sweet

[XxPiratexLuvxX]

wow im looking forward to the 22nd

cant wait to hear the announcements

[ToraMinamino]

I'm looking forward to the 22nd. I'd love to see them license Seto no Hanayome, Reborn, Nabari no Ou, and Soul Eater. Gintama would be nice to, but I'm not expecting it.

[mewsharuotto]

AAAH I WANT THE KODOCHA DVDS!!! they need to come out in the UK

[nuijaperkele]

Why is this good? Yay, plenty more anime which will get licensed in America and not here and we can't get it without importing it. Shit.

[omlette87]

School Rumble!

[Kamuki7thdan]

D-grayman and Soul Eater FTW!

[TrinityBloodRULES]

I heard Soul EAter is getting licensed but its licenser is unknown.

[Bpower101]

Soul eater Sucks major ass. *everybody is gonna give me thumbs down* Soul eater sucks stop asking for it before they listen to you. Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei < I will love you.) Seto no Hanayome < I will bow to you) Minami-ke To-LOVE-Ru Shakugan no Shana II To Aru Majutsu no Index Toradora! D.Gray-man < This is on the Website) Gintama < Requested by everyone in the World) Hell Girl Season 2 < FACT) Request one of those. mostly the first one.

[Kamuki7thdan]

I hate Hell Girl does that mean it sucks?

[Bpower101]

Whatever floats your boat Dude.. I haven't even seen Hell Girl Season 1. I just know that Hell Girl 2 is one of there Titles.. Soul Eater Suck ass Fact is Fact

[Kamuki7thdan]

So if you don't like it then it sucks and your god because your opinion is law?

[Bpower101]

Thank you for Understanding

[LinkFan109]

NEGIMA!? RULEZ!!!!!!!!!!

[Kirvee2]

Did Scott have too much crack? XD, j/k.

Damn, no DGM news, but hopefully it'll be part of the 10 days thing. It HAS to be or I will choke some bitches (not really).

[Bpower101]

Ha ha ha Win. ha ha (Choke some bitches) ^_^ that made me lol!

[Assasin2]

The series I wanna see licensed are

1. Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei

2. Gintama

3. Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS

4. Soul Eater

5. Tower of Druaga

6. ..I can't thibk of anything else

[Sunkist02]

I agree but wasn't Strikers licensed by Geneon USA?? As for me the series I want to see licensed besides those are Nabari no Ou, Linebarrels of Iron (even though its not finished airing in Japan yet), H2O Footprints in the Sand, Vampire Knight, Shugo Chara, Ray the Animation, La Corda D`Oro, Kamichama Karin, Natsume Yuujinchou, Night Head Genesis, Ef A Tales of Memories,Inukami, Neo Angelique Abyss, Mermaid Melody,etc. If any of these gets licensed I'm going to be extremely happy!!

[Assasin2]

Only the first two seasons of Nanoha were licensed, they wanted to see how well seasons 1 and 2 sold before licensing the 3rd season. Hopefully Nanoha sells well and I would assume Funi would be the one to license it and try and get all the Geneon VAs to reprise there roles.

[sitbunnynow]

My guesses for the 10 days 10 shows are keroro gunso, soul eater, REBORN!, gintama, and umm...

I had another one in my head, but I forgot it...

[Bpower101]

Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei < I will love you.)

Seto no Hanayome < I will bow to you)

Minami-ke

To-LOVE-Ru

Shakugan no Shana II

To Aru Majutsu no Index

Toradora!

D.Gray-man < This is on the Website)

Gintama < Requested by everyone in the World)

Hell Girl Season 2 < FACT)

[Assasin2]

Ah Claymore, an anime with such wasted potential. It was pretty good when it followed the manga until the last arc where it took a massive nose dive and just ran itself into the ground.

[xinder5]

"10 donkeys with 10 parrots by 10 tomorrow, now that I can do!"

Wha?

[loveanime66]

Quickie filled with epic win!

[liamnaruto]

killing blow to 4kids tv  take there shows

good liam to funi:take the linecse yuhioh and tokyomew emw

devil side: kill alkan and tape and take the lineces

[anonfalcon]

arent the japs getting a second series of fullmteal alchemist in april 2009

[Assasin2]

1. Please don't say "japs" and 2. Yes a second FullMetal Alchemist series was announced and it will be following the original mangas storyline much more closely then the first anime did.

[sitbunnynow]

Wait, when?

It's wikipedia time!

(BTW I agree. It's racist)

[Assasin2]

April 09 or so, the manga probably won't be done by then but considering how things are currently going in it we shouldn't have to worry about it ever catching up.

[sitbunnynow]

True.

Fillers are okay for an episode or two, but totally changing the ending gets annoying.

[Assasin2]

It was obvious they would have to do something different with the ending of Claymore since the manga isn't finished and there isn't that much material to cover for a 2nd season, but the way the ended it was terrible. The entire series and final battle were rendered pointless simply because an annoying kid said "Please don't kill the mean monster who ruined your life and killed thousands of others!"

[sitbunnynow]

That's why I usually don't like short anime adaptations.

[anonfalcon]

whats wrong with saying japs.

[Soldatoflife]

It's an English slur that can be seen as offensive.

As for this quickie, all I can say are two things:

''ROFLMAO!'' and ''interesting''

[Sunkist02]

@anonfalcon: b/c saying that is an racial slur

[jacktaterman124]

how is "Japs" racist? it's like saying "he's a Brit" it's just an abreviation to me. Jeez, people are so damn politically correct. it's sickening.

[fleetadmiralj]

Watch some WWII movies

[jacktaterman124]

I know that, my grandpa fought in the Philippines, heard some interesting stories. but, I personally don't find anything wrong with it. it's not as bad the "N" word. and for everyone's information, I'm not a racist, I'm just not politically correct. no race/person/religion should have special benefits because they are different.

[NekoYousei]

Saying "Japs" is like saying the "N" word for Japanese people. The term "Japs" was used in WWII with malicious & derogatory intent.

[mistyXninja]

Since we're on this topic, is just ''jap'' ok [w/o the plural]? l thought with or without the 's' is still a insult. l just want to make sure, though.

[NekoYousei]

No, "Jap" and "Japs" is the same thing except one is plural. There is no difference in the meaning.

[mistyXninja]

Thanks, l was right.

[jarmela]

WOOT! Hoping for Eva, Soul Eater, Seto no Hanayome, and FMA(Please!).

[kasamy1]

[Assasin2]

It's a little jard to announce the new FMA series when it hasn't even aired in Japan yet. It's still in production so it won't be licensed for a while.

[AxleChain]

I hope they dub shuffle season 2, To-Love Ru and Soul Eater the most

[TheGreatUrameshi13]
