Not too surprising. The fast dub for Akiba's Trip seemed like it was mostly a test for MHA and, more than likely, Attack on Titan.

Most shows have episodes 1-6 finished by episode 1 airdate while in various levels of production for episodes 7-10. It's after that point that shows usually fall behind. Noragami Aragoto for instance aired with a trailer showing scenes from episodes 8, and that show was rushed to hell 'n high water with tons of animation problems.

Honestly, I'll be surprised if AoT2 doesn't air simultaneously on Toonami, or even on a bit of a delay like they did with that crap Dimension W. JoJo's ends mid-April I believe, giving Funimation enough time to have dubs ready.

Will this really be a Funimation exclusive? I thought it was only Netflix's job to keep piracy alive nowadays!

They can still do voices even if the episodes aren't finished.
Voicing an anime can be done whenever the storyboard is finished, which is quite early in it's development cycle.

It is starting to look like a title exclusive to Funimation. |
I'm beginning to wonder if the Funimation/CR partnership has been silently scaled back or even discontinued.
Despite the "Funimation for dubs, CR for subs" plan, The dub of Gintama is appearing on CR, and now we see Funimation announcing they'll have a subtitled version of MHA. Add to that the fact that no further Funimation catalog titles have moved over to CR since before Christmas.

The dub of Gintama was well known to have been commisoned long before the partnership began, CR likely couldnt' back out of the deal so only they have the rights not Funi. Similar is likely for MHA given how early Funimation announced rights to stream the first season last year it may just be a title CR has no similcast rights for.
It takes time to get lisences switched and get the Japanese side to agree to changes, it's not like Funi can just wave a wand and BAM CR has their whole subbed library and converstly CR can't just give away all their old dubbing rights either.

I think the only reason the dub for Gintama is on CR is because TV Tokyo are Investors in CR meaning every anime that is published by TV Tokyo has to be only on CR

Crap, I was thinking about this for a long time and it seems FUNI will have exclusive rights for it. I hope CR also streams MHA, though. Torrenting is exhausting and I always forget to watch what I have downloaded (like LWA).

Also, from the get go, they said that certain titles would not be part of the deal since the Japanese licensors still have the final say. The second season of Tales of Zesteria, for example, is not part of it. Also, the transfer of catalogue titles seemed like it was more periodic than a continuous thing. Existing deals are definitely a factor. For example, Mob Psycho 100 was delayed and recorded in LA because it turns out CR had already made arrangements for the dub of that particular show.

In all seriousness the first season dragged the intro stuff out way too much and I'm not surprised it turned people off. In the manga what they covered was only the first 12 or so chapters. The things covered this upcoming season are when it really gets good.
