Nice list. I'd suggest try making one for if they use CA groups like Studiopolis or Bang Zoom, etc. That's the other option.
I just had this weird vibe that Crispin Freeman could play Ichigo.  *shudder*

I agree. I think fans nowadays really need to go back in time to when anime was less commonplace here and see what real "butchering" of a show is. Or at least try and think of One Piece everytime they start wanting to whine

Yep, big blocks of yellow text covering a bit of the bottom of the screen. |

I just wanted to clear this up because posters are correcting me (thanks BTW). This was in the newest "Subs vs. Dubs" thread (OH THE INSANITY!) and I wanted to copy my thought here. Slightly off-topic but if anyone could lend a thought . . .
My point being is if 4Kids is the only licensor availiable but ADV/FUNi/someone says they'll do it in a year or two, how about do the "controversial" thing and NOT GIVE IT TO 4Kids!! You better believe Al Kahn would order changes to the editing procedure once the series stop lining up for his company. I still can't believe 4Kids offices are 5 blocks away from my school. I gotta get a interview request!

Yeah, it is. If it goes on TV of course it will be edited, but it shouldn't be edited that much. And Viz has done a fine job on Naruto. The DVDs will surely be released uncut (eventually, at least). While Viz hasn't announced Bleach for the U.S. yet, it seems pretty unlikely that it will go to anyone else. I would prefer to see FUNI get it, but I really don't mind Viz getting it. I just hope they don't go the Naruto route for the DVD release. |

Wow, this topic got pretty comical. I knew "saveonepiece" would start a riot over Viz aquiring Bleach, but such blatant rejection of this alleged aquisition was quite funny.
... Interesting that the news still hasn't been confirmed yet. Why bother to take something as large as Bleach and just leave the Anime communities hanging on reasonable doubt? |

Yeah, I guess Mike McFarland saying that Dameon Clarke moved to Cali on the commentary track of FMA dvd 6 means nothing............................  I mean...he only worked with him for about 6 years.

Because the 'anime communities' are not the people Viz is concerned with? Shows like Bleach and Naruto are mass-market properties that Viz hopes will catch on with American teenagers at large. Believe it or not, the 'fan community' - the kids who download fansubs and cosplay at anime conventions - are a very small minority in the demographic Viz is appealing to. They want mass appeal; what the anime community's response to the announcement is is practically negligible. What matters is if Jonny Q. Teenager who occasionally watches Adult Swim and shops at Hot Topic will like Bleach or not. From a marketing standpoint, anyway; obviously fandom is good for a show, but in terms of the bigger picture, success for Bleach does not rest in the hands of the established fanbase. Also, that comic strip that's being passed around has to be one of the most annoying webcomics I've ever read. It's chock full of the self-righteous, woefully misinformed viewpoints the most obnoxiously vocal fans tend to share. The strip about how "skeptical pessimism" is the "best response" to Cameron's Battle Angel announcement especially boils my sauce. Yeah, there's a "best response" to a movie announcement, and anything at all relating to anime has to defer to the judgements of a fickle and almost impossible to please vocal minority. Ugh. |

Take a brief tour of the website and you will see it covers N. American news too. You also might want to post this news article on your site from Newsarama : http://www.newsarama.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=62156 Interview with Cartoon Network VP Terry Kalagain Here is a quote of her exact words : " Bleach is great. The same people who do Naruto and Inu Yasha make it. It’s more of an Adult Swim show. It’s a bit more complex and slower, and it builds from one episode to the next. " I think that speaks load and clear That article is more news worthy of an anime site than just copying AOD posts about manga releases |

Tempest is quite aware that the site covers North America. He was saying that because it covers other places around the world, it might have been reporting on some other market. The link you provided however, does seem to lend credence to the idea that C21 was talking about North America after all. |

All I said was that it doesn't focus on North America. The people quoted in that article are a European rep, and an international licensing VP. Hardly suggestive of a North American license.
Naruto and Bleach animated Studio Pierrot.
Sorry, both sites use the same sources for their info, but for the record, ANN posted some of the releases first. Not trying to say "we were first therefore we were better" but rather "we were first so we obviously didn't copy them."
I don't. The only thing that will make it clear is an annoucement, its appearance in a TV broadcast schedule, a DVD solicit, or solid inside info. So far all we have is a ton of conjecture based on statements that that may or may not have anything to do with the American market. Everyone knows that Viz is most likely to release Bleach, I'm not denying that (Although I doubt "everyone" understands what is involved in Viz "licensing" this title). The title is theirs to claim or give away, and I doubt they'll give it away. But making sure the news I report is correct, is much more important that being the first to report it. I'd much rather be right last, than wrong first. I want to wrap this up as much as you do, and as soon as possible. I was on vacation yesterday skiing, and I figure I called Viz about 10+ times from the ski hill. At the time their PR people couldn't comment on it, and needed to verify with execs about what the statements were in reference to. Unfortunately said execs were in transit to (or from?) a meeting today, so I won't get an answer till Monday. Trust me, the second I know that Bleach is being prepared for US release or broadcast, it will be posted on ANN. -t |
