I am happy that Funimation licensed DW and Baka and Test Season 2. Funimation made a good haul for AX11.

It is good to see Asobi no Iku yo! and B Gata H Kei getting a release in R1. I didn't think B Gata H Kei would get a release in R1. Well I know I am going to get these two shows once they come out.

All of those are maybes.

Depending on how much I like Baka and Test will determine if I get the second season.

Cat Planet Cuties (love that title) is the closest to a definite since people like it a lot. I know Theron raved about it in the Year End thing, so that's a point in it's favor.

Deadman Wonderland...maybe. I wasn't interested in it while it was airing, but people seem to like it.

Steins;Gate is another almost definite. I stopped watching it after the first 3 episodes so I could marathon it when it finished, but now I'm not sure if I want to do that or wait for the dub release.

Yamada's First Time will require a full preview since it sounds pretty bland. Hopefully it goes up for streaming on Youtube soon.

Very nice haul.

This convention would have been a dream come true if there had been mention of One Piece, Gosick, Hanasaku Iroha and/or The World God Only Knows, but I digress; I'm still very happy with the announcements! <3

Great job, FUNimation! :3

Not gonna lie, I'm pretty dissapointed with this. Only thing that interests me is more Baka and Test (which was a shoo-in to get licensed) and maybe Asobo no Ikuyo.

Also, they got more rights for C but not Aria, even though Aria has more views on Youtube? I mean, I know it's just one site, but I can't think the difference would be that different on Hulu. And I would assume that an Aria license would be cheaper than a noitiminA show Rolling Eyes

Oh well, just my wishful thinking again, I guess.

I know I've been a bit critical on Deadman Wonderland, but in all honesty, I enjoy how ridiculous it is, and will likely buy it. And yeah, Busty Catgirls from Space being licensed was pretty inevitable. I hope they do a spruced up dub, then I'll put it next to Sekirei and Girls Bravo on my shelf! Oh, and I am definitely buying C - Control, definitely.

Maybe because Aria sucks? Razz + Twisted Evil

So is CR not streaming the rest of Steins;Gate or?

Anyway I'm glad it was picked up but you know, Chaos;Head was picked up over a year ago and still no word on a release. Hey Funimation release what you have the rights to first before getting all these new titles then delaying them right before release.

Nice how Funimation manages to spoil two series by just altering the names.

Dang, that was fast, Steins;Gate isn't done yet and Baka to Test 2 hasn't even aired yet! Still, I love what Steins;Gate has done so far so I'll probably snatch that up when it comes out, although I'm not so sure about C/Deadman Wonderland, just not sure how often I'd rewatch those two. Oh, and I heard elsewhere that Last Exile Fam is confirmed for a simulcast (and DVD/BR), Funi really went all out here didn't they?
