Well, there are still three more days. Here's hoping to some anime.

I myself am sorta ticked about a second day of live-action acquisitions, but hey - I think a bunch of people had this coming after whining like little babies over it yesterday. It serves us right as fans.

Nobody here so much as other forums and places I go on the net though.

So this is to all the whiners of yesterday. - HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! *dies choking on laughter*

RAGE.

That is all I have to say.

Well I'm not really all of that mad, but announcing live action movies that few people are going to care about during their big "Roll out Riot" is just a waste. It's like a big name company going to E3 and advertising a Hannah Montana game instead of their main games.

They better bring it these last three days. I was going to let yesterday slide... but they did it again today? FUNimation, I didn't know you loved trolling so much.

Kamui is based on a manga, so close enough. Yesterday's news was unexpected but interesting. I am hoping for some anime announcements for the rest of the week though, and fans can take some hope in the fact that so far they've been announcing more than one title a day.

I hope all the announcements are live-action, just to spite the whiners.

They license anime 98% of the time. Let them have their fun with the live-action titles. It's not like they've stopped releasing anime.

Also, some of these movies look like they might be halfway decent, if just for the cheese value.

I am so angry! Cmon! This is supposed to be anime! Hello? Where's the ANIME? This isn't as bad as yesterday, and it wouldn't be bad at all if they didn't do what they did yesterday, but this is really pissing me off! They could've combined today and yesterday and save all the real announcements for today and the rest of the days. Seriously. I'm seriously doubting that Funimation is going to announce ANY anime!

I'll admit. While I'm certainly disappointed that this wasn't a new anime announcement, Kamui Gaiden sounds REALLY cool, so I am defiantly interested in that.

It would also seem as if Funimation is saving the best for last so chances are there's some big new anime acquisition in store their going to announce in the next 3 days.

The reactions to this announcement are frankly kind of embarrassing. C'mon, anime fandom, I thought you were a little classier than that.

Oh man, I don't know if I'll be able to bear checking this thread in a few hours. I sense a storm coming.

Anyway, still nothing I'm interested in, though I am interested in finding out what comes next.

While I was honestly disappointed yesterday, today I can't really do much else but be amused by everything and roll with it.

And Kamui looks kinda cool so I may at least rent it.

What anime fans have you been around Laughing . And these comments are pure class when you put them up against the "Loli", Dub vs. Sub, and " tsundere" comments.
