I don't know whether to play a song from Jesus Christ Superstar or Mighty Mouse!

Funimation in my eyes has redeemed itself from the unholy rape of the Dragonball franchise. Now I am REALLY hoping that they are closer to getting deals to do the Lupin TV series and the rest of the Tenchi Muyo stuff.

I'm guessing these will look like Kadokawa titles, where there are two company symbols on the spine, but i'd still like to hear about nanoha.......

I can be happy about this on the condition that Geneon retains production. Just don't let me hear any Funi-dub.

Zero no Tsukaima will be a nice stablemate for Slayers, especially considering I believe that it was ZnT that revived interest in the story-driven comedy/fantasy genre enough for Slayers to get a new season after a whole decade of slumber.

I'm not going to buy again what I already own (in singles form), but I definitely echo that sentiment for the OVA's.

Kyo Kara Maoh! Season 2, Shonen Onmyouji, and The Story of Saiunkoku?! I thought tomorrow was the Fourth of July not Christmas. Thank you, Funimation!

Finally I can complete my Karin and Rozen Maiden collection.

And finally Zero no Tsukaima is being released. I am one happy person.

THANK YOU FUNIMATION. Is it to much to say I'd like to prostrate myself before them.

I'm guessing this is just the first wave. I doubt FUNimation wants to announce all the titles they're releasing at once since that will create a "when are you going to release [insert fanboy title here]" rush. They have a few of their own titles to work on too and probably don't have the capacity to crank this all out at once.

Now the real questions is "when?". I gather that a lot of the unreleased titles were already dubbed so I'm betting FUNi is concentrating on those to speed up the releases.

I guess this calls for a group glomp to Funi. <3

Woot!!!

Can you say Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha ten times fast?

No. Neither can I. But I'm happy anyway.
