Hulu.com only? Way to fail hard, Viz.

Was 'Cities ever subbed? Anyway, I'm on the fence about watching the H+C anime, even if it's free, since Viz is taking so long to finish the manga, and I'd kind of like to end it there first. I gave into the movie, but I'm not entirely sure how accurate its ending is, since it pretty much lacks important elements common in the manga-like character growth and tension. Moving on, it'd be nice if Viz uploaded Full Moon and Monster on Hulu next.

I'm a bit pissed I can't watch it myself but will buy the Honey and Clover DVDs when they come out without a doubt.
In the meantime it's good news for US residents.

I'm sure that Viz figures that, with having hulu.com host their videos, then other websites can just embed the hulu.com videos into their webpages (the way ANN does).
That way, Viz's shows are available to be legally distributed throughout the internet (like on ANN for example), with Viz only having to be in direct contact with hulu.com.

Having thought of all that, I can understand how the fact that some people don't like hulu's player (or can't use it) might escape Viz's calculations.

Furthermore, Viz's own region restrictions would likely still apply, no matter who hosts the videos.

No kidding. Though i can wait until it's dubbed before seeing them though. At least Voltron is still there cause that along with knight of the zodiac and robotech were real classics in the US during the 80's 90's.Ashame no one made an uncut dub version of voltron(Go Lion) like what ADV did with robotech(Macross)

I need some help, im looking to buy a new series or two and don't know what to get. I own basilisk, FMA, Trinity Blood, Sam 7, Noein, Tactics, Sam Champloo, some bleach, and a couple others. But I've only been wacthing for 3 yrs so i don't know some of the older or more unknown titles that deserve veiwing. I've seen all thats on TV if someone could help me that would be awesome. I don't like naruto or DBZ that much. I prefer action but would give other genres a chance. is D Gray good I've heard good stuff about it someone help please.

Wow 'Honey and Clover', who knew. Well, that's 2 good shows picked up. 'HxC' and 'Eden of East'. Both good shows and really nice character designs. Same person. Wonderful news.

Well now this gives me some hope that Monster will be put up on Hulu eventually as well.

Meanwhile I'm going to watch Nana.

Nice to see more anime from Viz streaming on Hulu, but Hulu's recent decision to block PS3s is still ticking me off. Mad Mad

So...it's going to take them more than 2 years to get the whole thing on there, even though it's already been out for years?

Since you're new you probably didn't see it but there aren't any threads allowed for searching for new stuff since it tends to get out of hand. That one is the only one allowed here so that it can be kept concise.

Hulu.com is the only service that is completely blocked in Canada. If they had gotten the videos on Joost.com, YouTube, Crunchyroll, or directly on ANN, they would be definitely be available to Canadians.
