I just hope they don't change the voice acting. Steven Blum is da man as Onizuka!

Distribution has nothing to do with casting. It just means that Funimation will be responsible for manufacturing and distributing the releases.

What you can expect are cheaper re-releases.

Well, you guys answered my questions.
Since Marmalade Boy has been released in just the past couple of years, it made me wonder if they were going to redub it or not. From your posts...not. Thanks for answering my question before I was able to post it! |

TP originally released MBoy as box set only. I'm a huge fan of the manga, but I'm sure if I want to buy a whole boxset of an anime I've never seen before for $100. However, I'm willing to invest in one DVD, to test it out. Will FUNi's rereleases be single DVDs?

OK, so they won't touch the dubs. What about the subtitles?

Don't expect Funi to make ANY changes not related to packaging and distribution methods (something you won't even notice unless these titles show up at places you buy anime that didn't carry them before),

Something's going to be different/improved or else there will be no incentive to buy their version if you have the previous version. |

Go on eBay.com and search for them, you can get each R1 Box Set for $20-$40 new (YES, THAT CHEAP), it's well worth it, because Marmalade Boy is a Underrated Masterpiece. |

If these are going to be altered content-wise in any way, here's hoping for RAVE...

Nothing more than how they are packaged, priced and appearance. FUNimation will not change the dubs, subs, or video quality. Perhaps this also means that all of Tokyopop's anime titles will be distributed, and maybe those who are interested, Initial D 4th Stage will be licensed. The only reason why this deal occured is because Tokyopop was too lazy to continue distributing their titles, and instead will get paid by FUNimation for distributing them. |

Awww's!!! I wuv Marmalade Boy, but I hate the expensive box sets. And if this means that the boxes are now cheaper and stuff..then Awesome. Even if I never really bougght the anime technically, I rented them with Netflix. Oh well its all good tho( I'm waiting for the fourth and final box set to release at Netflix, rather than buy it).
