If it means releasing a quality product and/or adhering to the licensor I have zero problem with it.

I was looking forward to checking out the artbook that is pair in the collector's edition, but I can wait another Three weeks. Since I'm busy with watching other shows at the moment.

Exactly. Delays are almost standard with FUNi nowadays, this announcement didn't surprise me one bit.

I think it's because they seem to record the dub very close to release, so if anything goes wrong, it ends up delaying the whole thing.

For those of you who are complaining that Funimation always has delays now, really, I mean really?

3 weeks? Is that going to end your life? 21 days for a anime TV series.

I'm sure that this is not going to ruin your day/week/summer and there' s more than enough anime out there to keep you busy until you can get your release.

I agree with the gentleman above, who said if it means a better quality product(better quality control, etc.), then 3 weeks delay, is more than fine with me.

Thank you Funimation for releasing high quality Blu Rays at great prices.

I have a sneaking suspicion that other companies who pay to have their blu-rays manufactured do so at a higher rate to insure priority, and Funimation's business isn't really affected by delays so if delaying a release saves them on manufacturing, they're all for it.

But talking completely out of my ass here, who knows.

There is no artbook, those plans were canceled last month.
