This is the talkback thread for FUNimation Announces New June Titles Including "Slayers" Season 5.

Good to see the complete Afro Samurai together on Blu-ray. I may consider it, since I don't own Resurrection.
 
Beck...it's so cheap. They're going to get me with that eventually.

Heroic Age may be worth doing, though I'd be likely to get the Blu-Ray set that came out recently. I want to stream it just a bit more and see how it is beyond the introductory stuff.

X can be a strange series and it's most certainly not without its blood, but it's a good Geneon rescue. It's certainly something to look at thanks to Madhouse. Be prepared for a story where tragedy and character drama share the stage with action.

My top anticipated future Blu-Ray releases: Casshern Sins and Eden of the East. Come, autumn!
 
wait...wasnt there some kind of announcement a month ago about dvd's boxsets coming in may??
it had vandread season 1 and 2 on there...which i really want. i have only 4 pieces of anime
under my belt. you wanna know? hehe (so erabarrassing)

1. pokemon and frienRAB (vhs: 3 episodes where ash meets squirt,bulbasaur, and charmander)
2. freeza first transformation (vhs:4 episodes...i think it was still funi back then...not pioneer. gotta check.
3. gohan vs super buu (vhs: 4 episodes...)

yeah...i know.
but now that i actually have a job (19) i bought back in feb my first dvd boxset: Rahxephon(complete series+movie).
it was an amazing feeling. "i" own it know. makes your really choose wisely the series that you "really" wanna shell out
$50 bucks for. so anyways i'm trying to figure out if it was funimation who announced the vandread dvd boxset...
or maybe bandai...hmm.
EDIT: nevermind. i found it. funimation announced Air Gear and Vandread Ultimate Collection. sweet.
i'm not sure if you guys are aware of these other titles as well. they might peak your interests.

I'm definitely planning on getting the next Slayers set. Maybe I'll wait until June to get Revolution so I don't have to wait for the second set. Plus, I still want to watch the original series and I'm just about to rewatch Try next week.
 
It's June on FUNimation's calendar already, huh? Unfortunately, I don't see anything I'll be getting immediately, but I guess that's not so bad since I'll be giving FUNimation all my money in May. If anyone here doesn't own all of Beck, buy that S.A.V.E. Edition now! I may get the Afro Samurai Blu-ray collection, and I should probably check out Soul Eater.
 
UPDATE: Cover Art!

Just Soul Eater and Slayers for me. I'm betting there will probably be some big stuff in July though, especially since it's convention time.
