You're absolutely right - I could download it or even use a program like Snapz to rip it onto DVD... I'm just a fossil, old school collector who wants to prop DVDs or BluRays on bookshelves - the equivalent of someone who complains about a new album not being released on vinyl. I really am grateful that series that are or would be "flops" on DVD can be streamed legitimately in America. |

good idea!....I also want to have my own copies on dvds but i don't think Viz will release any dvds anytime soon...since it's cheaper if everything is digital.... |

While I do like the idea that these were added, and I'm impressed Hikaru no Go of all things was added, I think maybe I'll stick to the other things for a while. I've been having a hard time reading the subs on the streams on Netflix. However, with this, if I added correctly, this brings the total of anime episodes, movies, and OVA's on Netflix to 2,740......that was your useless random fact of the day. Lol.

Well it bombed spectacularly here, you can't expect Viz to finish dubbing beyond the 12 episodes or so they released on DVD. Are the other shows sub or dub? |

With substantial recent additions by Funimation, it is a lot more than it used to be. The Anime & Animation Watch Instantly category currently spans 7 pages. Even filtering out the non-anime, that would leave over 5 pages. Netflix has been an increasing disappointment when it comes to DVDs (three days without being able to ship a single one of the 35 anime DVDs in my queue), while becoming increasingly pleasurable as a source of streaming anime. |

Sure, I can. I mean what the heck else have they got to do? Have you seen their anime releases list lately? They have zilch as far as actively releasing titles other than Bleach, Naruto, and Vampire Knight and we're lucky if we see more than 3 title solicitations from them a month. There would be several advantages to going back and improving their catalog. They'd have something to do with all that free time other than counting their hairs plus dubbing them might make more people watch it and stick with it, it's a rather talky series that makes my button pushing finger sore from pausing it. But of course, this is VIZ we're talking about it's not like they care about the health of their fans index fingers, or honorable things like finishing what you start. [End of my silly half-serious rant, I now return you to your regularly scheduled thread.] Last edited by Kruszer on Fri Apr 01, 2011 9:03 pm; edited 1 time in total |

All the animes VIZ put on Netflix are subbed. The opposite of what Funimation's doing. |

AFAIK all of Hikaru No Go has been dubbed into English. They released a lot more than 12 episodes. |

It's nice that this is there. Right now, I'm paying for a few services just to watch anime and drama. It would be nice to consolidate. I see this as a positive push forward.

At least they're subbed. I get so tired of being all excited about anime being on Netflix and then discovering it's another crappy dub -_-
