Craps. At least they could have waited a bit longer, but they probably jumped on the samurai theme and thought it would sell well in the US.  Oh well, moving on... |

Actually I meant I'm going to keep watching the fansubs ;D I probably won't buy this unless the ending surprises me. Funimation has actually gotten a lot better since it's early days in that they offer japanese languages on their releases. I don't even need to search for a group that will keep subbing it since I know the fastest group to release the series doesn't give a shit about licenses. |

By now Funimation must have sent them a request to stop subbing, just like they did with anime-kraze. I wonder what their answer will be... |

The IY4ever half of the katana joint at least will not care because they are a european group so US licenses do not affect them. While the current torrents have been removed due to their location at a US address it's unsure what both groups will do yet. I'd probably know sooner if some idiot hadn't caused a ruckus in the thread regarding this and made the damn mods lock it One way or another someone will sub it. The Madlax incident from awhile ago is a good example of such an issue. |

Yes. That's unfortuneate. But once again someone will sub it. I won't simply end there. Edit: While I doubt nobody will sub Basilsik now, it seems the groups I mentioned have been cornered unfairly. Look at this shit Funimation sent them. Hey there.
Just wanted to let you know formally that Basilisk and Samurai 7 have been licensed by Funimation Entertainment. We actually are a co-producer of both series with GONZO so our request is worldwide, not just English speaking territiories. MVM handle our European releases and Madman handles our Australia releases. Thank for your interest in the show but please drop the projects and support the commercial release of both shows.
I want to personally ask you before I send this to our legal department. Our legal department has years of experience with illegal Dragon Ball Z merchandise/bootlegs.
Thanks,
Lance Heiskell
Funimation Entertainment Holy shit. Fuck you Funimation. Not only did you make an incredibly stupid marketing move by cutting off your chance to preview the anime to a potential market at others expense, you sent this unprofessional letter with a bunch of nonsense. I don't see your name in the credits of Basilisk so you have nothing to do with co-producing it, you do not cover a worldwide area, and here's a bootleg of the entire dragonball series on ebay so your years of experiance isn't worth shit. cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=617&item=6404711869&rd=1#ebayphotohostingYou tards couldn't find water if you were fish. I'd be mistaken to say I will stop buying anime from Funimation but things like this aren't discouraging people from the notion of how you guys are dumbasses.[/rant] |

Man, Funimation should come out of its ivory tower. They really don't know what's good for them.

Funimation has always been my most dispised anime company. They suck at subing, dubing and basically everything imo. I guess now we'll have to wait till crappy Funimation subs hit the net before we can finish the series... yay...
