I was flabbergasted at the people bitching and crying about the delay on Funimation's facebook. God forbid that the episode gets delayed because Japan is currently in a crisis.

People don't deserve to watch anime if they are going to be so selfish.

Completely Understandable.

There are more important things going on right now.

Everyone in Japan please stay safe.

Couldn't have said it better myself. It's unbelievable how some people can only think about their own comfort in times like these.

Unbelievable and scary Confused

You hope it's because they're young, and/or ignorant and don't know any better. But with how entitled the youth of today have become this doesn't entirely surprise me (the selfish ignorance of it does sadden me deeply, however).

I'm not violent by nature but such people make me want to smack some sense and courtesy/manners into them. Or just smack them.

Still waiting for last week's episode, so I doubt I'll even notice this delay.

I'm fully expecting the same for their other simulcasts. Anime is the last thing on my mind right now. I pray no more fall victim to this catastrophe.

And really? People are bitching about this? Ugh...

Understandable, and hey look at it this way those who are behind have a good chance to catch up now. I also wonder if any of the new Spring Series will be delayed too. I would welcome that news as it indicates more things getting back to normal and business returning. People back to work means better recovery in the long run. Hang on Japan we're rooting for you!

Considering the situation, I saw this coming. I hope everyone who would have been involved with broadcasting the episode is safe with their families.

Some were teenagers, yet there were alot who are adults. One even had the nerve to say this:

"I'm sorry but I'm more concerned about the anime. Japanese could care less about this country except when they can make some money of us. When is the last tome you've them sending aid to the US for Katrina or anything else for that matter. Now when is Bleach cimh back!"

Except he called the Japanese something else....(forum edited it for obvious reasons).

Japan did provide aid for Katrina. $200,000 worth.

People like that need a lot more rubbed in their face. Twisted Evil

It's sad that some people can't set aside their own petty wants to take the time to show some compassion for those who are in desperate need. Considering all the happiness the Japanese have provided for us, you'd think they'd have the common human decency to at least be moderately concerned about the suffering over there.

Most of these guys just want attention. Thankfully these kinds of people are far outnumbered by the people who actually are concerned.
