Sigh...it's not working in our country, even though we co-produced the dub version of it. Stupid licensing issues... Mad

Look at it this way; at least now that Bandai is on the CR bandwagon, there's always room for negotiations.

And trust me, you didn't miss much, the OO is hardly a work of art when compared to some of the other Gundam series that Bandai's holding on to. The reason they want to put it up there could very well because there's a fan base for it. I mean why give them the real goods when the fandom are settling for something relatively less.

The problem is that there is a very high possibility that another company bought the Canadian broadcast/streaming rights to Gundam 00 and is now sitting on them. Bandai still hasn't commented on the issue.
