I am VERY happy about FUNimation saving Geneon titles! I can finally get my hands on Shounen Onmyouji!! If only they'd tell us when they'd be out!
Also, FUNimation lost the license to Kodocha's 2nd season. They're not releasing it anymore. |

I had heard that they kind only got the first season and it did not do to well for them so they really did not go after the second season. I could be wrong but that what I had understood. |

On the subject of Kodocha, FUNi said that they're trying to find a way to release the rest of it, because they don't like to drop series.

The fact that they apparently didn't say anything about it in this panel is worrying, however (especially given that they've made release announcements about several titles they've acquired since then), and there's currently no info on their Web site about it that I can find. |

Happy happy happy about Big Windup! Ookiku Furikabutte is really underrated, so I hope Funi does a good job on it so more people will come to know about it. I've liked it ever since I saw it on TV in Japan.

Here you go. It took a year to get any real info on Ouran and Darker than Black, and we still don't know when Negima!? and Jyu Oh Sei are coming. All of those were licensed last year, at least some (like Ouran) at the previous AnimeExpo, a full year ago. Don't worry, this is sadly common for Funi these days, it doesn't mean its not coming out or there is anything to worry about. |

Not quite what everybody is talking about but I am glad that Funimation has done the anime community a favor and picked these incomplete missing titles. The main series I was after was Hellsing Ultimate, and now I'll be able to get the rest of it. I wonder though if they'll be releasing the earlier volumes as well.

Both. They will re-release the existing volumes and start the new volumes at about (or exactly) the same time. Mostly. Rozen Maiden's first season is getting a set but Traumend has not been solicited yet. |

Well it's good to hear that they're at least trying to do something about it. It may not have sold very well, but it's really a great series. |
