to be honest i can't watch subs i just prefer dub D:

It's "mahn-gah" but since Japanese people mispronounce English words, we shouldn't make a big deal of English speakers mispronouncing English words.

You know having watched this series of vidoes, I appreciate Greg's insight.

But at the same time as of late, recent events such as how Bandai Entertainment scaled back alot and why as Ken Iyadomi outlined.

I get the feeling the Japanese in part will be more responsible for killing the industry with unrealistic expectations for pricing and all of that kind of deal.

Bandai Visual proved this point for the brieft period they exsisted.

Funimation seems to be survivng due to the way they work.

Still watching this is 2011. Information is always important, no matter how long ago it was put out there.

@HaiiroXE well, i just wished Geneon included Animax's English Dub of my favorite show instead of just giving it sub only, leaving Animax's English Dub to fade off to obscurity!!!
