I'm surprised to see that Funi is willing to grab any sort of rights to the new D. Gray-man, considering their past experience with the series. I mean, it's cool that they're willing to try again, but it was still surprising.

On another note, why on earth would Funimation acquire D.Gray-man Hallow? For starters they dropped the show after the first 51 episodes (out of 103).


D.Gray Man episodes 52-103 of the first series are not licensed due to issues with Dentsu.

All those and only 1 series of particular interest to me, D.Gray-man: Hallow, but then I kinda expected that going into this season because it seemed there were slim pickings as far as new shows.

Unless FUNi decides to finish the remaining 52 D.Gray-man's episodes, them picking up Hollow seems odd, as far as "being there for the fans" go.


I agree that would be extremely bizarre to just skip over that many episodes and so much plot.

Concerning the original D. Gray-Man anime not seeing a full release, I think technically it could be both not selling well and Dentsu issues.

A lot of people seem really salty about Funis pick ups. I dont know why (nor do i really care) but its cool that they got a lot, nothing i particularly wanna see but cool for others that do. Love live is the biggest surprise as everyone has said, funi just hopped on the hype train. Nothing wrong with that. Get your money however you can.
Because a lot of people stick with Crunchyroll and titles Funimation snatches are almost always denied to CR. That means that they either pay good money for the privilege of eyecancer video and terrible subs or turn to fansubs.

And for those that aren't informed, this is what they've been doing on streams added from late 2011 to present. Only streams that aren't affected are ones added before EVS happened, such as Pumpkin Scissors dubbed, School Rumble sub & dub, Suzuka dubbed. So mainly, older shows that are up SD-only, and the dubbed version of most of the Sojitz titles (FUNi used to stream those dubbed-only, after EVS then they started streaming the subbed version).

FUNi | Original

They claim it's due to hardsubs, which is not the case.

Please don't dub LoveLive Sunshine!! They BUTCHERED the original LoveLive movie with the dub. Their voice acting for that series is EXTREMELY bad.
Well the dub is incredibly faithful to the tone of the original so I don't think the word 'butchered' is appropriate. Are you not capable of expressing opinions without using CAPITAL LETTERS and cool sounding buzzwords? Learn better ways to express your viewpoints

I didn't sense any rudeness from his reply. Can't say the same for you.

Quote:
This is what I don't like. If anyone DARES have another opinion other than your own their wrong. I was just stating that it was bad. And it really was.
You can't use the 'It's just my opinion' argument and then follow it up with a statement that implies you think it's a fact.

Quote:
If i have an opinion I get to voice it. If other people don't like it then they can IGNORE it.
So you have the right to an opinion, but no one has the right to disagree with it? That's a pretty messed up train of thought.

Not to mention you're basically saying that it shouldn't get a dub at all simply because you don't want it which is also pretty messed up. Imagine if something really cool you're looking forward to at the moment got cancelled because some asshole on an Internet message board said 'I don't want it!'.
