The YOI animation and music are fantastic, and it's shaping up to be a very funny, moving, and extremely female-friendly anime. Having seen the first three episodes at a preview screening here in Tokyo, I could easily see it enjoying the same popularity and longevity as "Free!"

Hmm... it's looking more and more likely that those Sentai pick ups will be exclusive to TAN... darn. Sad

I can't believe the Funimation curse continues to haunt Latin America even after they give up the subbing part of the business over to Crunchyroll

I wonder if Funimation is regretting their union with CR yet; At least in the last CR update, they got a notice of which shows they'll get, here nothing.

Was there anything I wanted to watch this season or was I just unimpressed by the previous season? I think Monster Musume was the last series I actively sought out, what I usually do is try all that I can and watch what sticks as I've done since the late 90s and anime on cable.

The last thing I want is "everything"; The quality will just depress me.

So, Funimation is not going to announce any titles anymore? Yesterday the fall season started and Funimation didn't announce any titles they got the full rights for despite working together with crunchyroll. They just let crunchyroll announce all subs and then Funimation announce which ones get to be a weekly dub? I mean crunchyroll got titles i was sure about funimation would have the rights too... Show by rock and Brave witches for example.

Im really curious how they are going to work this out.

It seems like that will be the case. Based on regions, Token Ranbu, Show by Rock, and Monster Hunters are most likely shows that Funimation has the license for that they are letting Crunchyroll stream subbed. The regions are the same as the couple of Funimation shows that Crunchyroll started simulcasting a few weeks ago.

Funimation announced getting the rights to Monster Hunter a while back (before the partnership was announced) so it seems like they're letting Crunchy handle the subtitling half of the equation, like they said at the start. Presumably we'll get announcements for dubs premiering on Funi in the coming days/weeks.

Yeah, Funi is letting CR sub probably because they listen to fans who said their subs were bad and just focusing on what they good at dubbing.

What's cool is that CR is offering both the censored and uncensored versions of MWITSCP 2. Now, if they were they had that option more often with full-length harem/fan service shows.
