Title: Funimation Saves Geneon Titles!
Post by: JorgeRPG077 on July 03, 2008, 10:59:41 AM
This is from my friend Gia's Blog:

Funimation saves Geneon Titles (http://giapet.net/2008/07/03/funimation-and-geneon-make-sweet-anime-love/)

I'm so happy that they will finish Rozen Maiden and Higurashi. Now I will buy said box of the DVD's and start getting the DVD's too of RM lol XD.

Thats sorta good right?

so wait, if theyre going to produce "new" domestic DVD's does that mean the voice actors will change? or was the 'entire' series of an anime was already dubbed before production of DVDs?

So what does this all technically mean?  :P  ???

It means that Geneon will handle all the production aspects while Funimation markets and distributes said tittles.

Wait.

So Funimation gets executive control over Geneon titles?

Who else isn't enthusiastic about this? I mean, sure, at least it isn't 4kids, but...

All the Geneon shows have had their dub track finished way before Geneon wnet under. So the actors will stay the same. I am very happy that funimation haspicked up the titles. Now my incomplete dvd sets can be finished.

As long as Funi doesn't F- with any of those series', especially Higurashi, then I'll be ok. 
I just don't want it to turn into Casey and Friends.  :3
