I actually saw a recording of Vic (I believe it was this series) on YT a few months ago.

Judging from the English voice cast, I would say Funimation will be the one getting this anime.

Ryo Horikawa -> Christopher R. Sabat
Mamoru Miyano -> Vic Mignogna I can see how they casted this. |

I agree. This is a sort of a mix of simulcast publ/dub.

Well, we'll wait and see if ANN to confirm if Funimation got the North American licensing right for Rainy Cocoa. But as I said, judging from the English cast, I say it's highly likely Funimation got the right. |

The company behind these manga/cellphone apps project is a Japanese voice talent agency (the one that represents the voice actor for Vegeta), so that's likely where the Funimation connection started.
I have no idea who is fronting the money for an anime adaptation though... |

Excuse me,but I've got a question for everyone. What is "Rainy Cocoa" about? Does it take place on a parallel earth where it rains chocolate for an unexplained reason? I hope someone will give me some information on this.

Sorry,mdo7. I'm not as familiar with e-manga as I am with regular old printed manga. Besides,I've never heard of this before so I have no idea about the plot or anything about it.

Well, looks like you didn't read the article. Word of advice: read the article first before making a comment. |

This part of the source caught my attention:
I wonder if more works in the future will have this format. |

I wonder why they specifically chose the Funi talent pool.

As I said, I think Funimation may have gotten a license, that or this particular anime could be a co-production between Japan and Funimation, that's another theory. |

Got the impression from the summary that this is a BL romcom in the vein of Antique Bakery. Its watchability will depend on its writing and its comedy to drama ratio.
