Sekirei 2, Okamisan, and Campanella are also delayed by more than a week. Black Butler 2 is delayed by one week. Not to mention their promise of simulcasting Strike Witches 2, which hasn't even happened yet. |

I guess I'm the only excited about Fortune Arterial, eh?

Oh right, I forgot about those other three (mainly because I haven't watched them) but didn't they start really late? |

For Strike Witches 2, it may be that when they read the fine print, they found out they did not have simulcast streaming rights, and will only actually own the streaming rights once they expire at Crunchyroll. Certainly when Crunchyroll announced the simulcast, they announced it as an exclusive simulcast. |

I would assume that that is not going to happen since Funimation licensed the first season. At least I don't know of any situation where Crunchyroll was allowed to stream a series that was licensed by an actual distributor. |

CR wont be putting the first season back up. It has since been licensed by Funimation (including the streaming rights), but it'll be put up on Funimation.com eventually, but the question is when? Its possible that they may do it to coincide with the second season, but then again they might not. |

I get the impression that when they do not have a simulcast, they stream as part of the lead up to the DVD release. Certainly El Cazador worked like that. But if they are trying to promote their new site when it opens up, they might put some shows up there before they are ready for the DVD release, to attract more visitors. |

I think they had an (understandable) fear of doing a show where, at the outset, you weren't sure if it was going to wind up being a Japanese nationalist skewing of history (it wasn't...apparently. I didn't watch it because it wasn't streamed legally).
Yes! If they're not going to do it because of it is getting an actual DVD release, at least tell us that. Well, with Panty & Stocking w/ Garterbelt (I vote we call it P&SwG), I will be able to watch both the shows I most wanted to check out (the other being on noitaminA, so Funi will do that). Yay for legal streams (in those regions which get them)! |

Yeah. I got to thinking that the amount of anime on local TV meant we'd be shut out of most legal streaming. Then again Korean shows seem to be more popular than anime right now, so I guess a lot of licenses are available. |

Its only been announced for their three simulcasts ~ going ahead, they can exclude English subtitled streaming rights from their standard broadcast agreement for the Philippines, but obviously they cannot go back and rewrite existing contracts. It will be interesting to see which of the catalog titles if any get streamed to the Philippines, Malaysia and Singapore. |

Well, I guess Panty & Stocking is at least unusual enough that it might be worth checking out. Otherwise, I'm completely uninterested in any of Chruchyroll's new stuff.

Nope, I'm also looking forward to it. I just hope it doesn't turn into another Cabbage Love. |

Awesome. I can now watch some more perverted hi-jinx with SoraOto2. Can't wait until Funimation releases part 1. So now I have reason to head back to CR. Well, not just that but I haven't been on in a goooood while. I want to check out Panty&Stocking as well.
