I'm just going to pick this up because of the backlash it will cause. Time to set-back and enjoy the ride "grabs popcorn"

I liked this alternate "what they REALLY mean" message I saw going around on twitter the other day. Laughing

I'd love to support this as I'd rather get more shows over here even if they're subbed only, but I have no interest in this show :/ Maybe next time Funi.

Yeah, but that was an limited import release.

I wonder if Funi would reconsider licensing magical girl titles if they were sub only? spoiler[Heartcatch Precure, please. Wink]

I lol'd at the idea that "normal people" watch anime.

Kind of bummer as I was hoping to see this dubbed, but it is nice to know that they're expanding rather than contracting (?) since they say that shows which get sub-only releases wouldn't have otherwise been picked up anyway.

They won't, they've stated multiple times a domestic release with a dub will come later down the line.

I thought this is what Simulcasting was for?

..I guess they don't want to pass up on an opportunity to make money...

Despite liking the series I did get a good chuckle from that image. You sir win an internet.

The truth is they couldn't find any actors willing to do the show.

There's a whopping two shows that I'd definitely buy sub only [Though Id still love a dub] so this isn't much news to me. I do like the fact that they are jumping right into sub only blurays though, since it took forever for Sentai to do the same.

Saban Brands has the Precure license now, starting with Smile, so that might be a problem.

I don't care about this show but I hope this leads to more sub-only BD releases from Funi especially for Tatami Galaxy and Rainbow.
