I think there is some confusion as the original Last Exile was never released on BluRay but the follow up Fam The Silver Wing was

Yup. Sadly. It was once briefly planned I remember before it disappeared with no explanation.

Japan got one so I wish they'd do one for us too, I'd buy it day one like the Fam sets since the first is one of my all-time favs.

It's been long time since I saw this one when it aired on Sci Fi (??) or that gaming channel, (I'm getting old y'all Laughing )

Either good time to rewatch and finish this series. It'll be first time watching it subbed too...

Still not a fan of these decisions. I like Funi's player way more than CRs, although Daisuki has them both beat in that that I can get HD by default.

Watch somebody bring up that VRV stuff again. Rolling Eyes

I saw it first on TechTV/G4techTV as well...14 years ago. Damn. I enjoyed it greatly, and I've have to get around to watching it again.

@Lynx Amali you can actually get HD by default for CR. In settings, under video preferences, Default Video Quality is the first item. I don't know about Funi's but one could probably find that in the settings as well.

I prefer CR over Daisuki, as Daisuki is probably the only streaming service for anime that does not have a Roku app, which is my preferred way to watch stuff (Daisuki does have a phone app though).

Yet another anime that I saw from the very first as a dub. Thought it was very good and never looked back. I may take a look at this just to see what the sub is like...

Shame that it is not dubbed, the dub for this was very good, then again most of Geneons dubs were.

It is dubbed, just the dub is staying with Funimation. The long term goal appears to be all dubs on Funimation, all subs on Crunchyroll.

They also moved over Overlord, Death Parade, Freezing, and High School DxD BorN

But they didn't move over Dragonar Academy, which was one of the titles ANN had listed for that day:
animenewsnetwork.com/news/2017-05-17/english-subtitled-death-parade-the-rolling-girls-more-move-to-crunchyroll/.116223

IMO, Last Exile was a good trade.

It will be interesting to see if any of the titles in that article slated for today are changed.

Wow, G4/TechTV isn't something I've heard mentioned in a decade, good memory! Takes me back...While I have most of the original Geneon release on DVD, I am missing the first so I'ma watch this on Funi again.
