Viz Media New Title Solicitations (Sep 09) Naruto Shippuden

Even with a T.V. deal, it's not a smart idea to do singles. Fans have made it pretty clear that they want 13-26 episode boxsets. All you need to do is release a boxset after 13-26 episodes have aired on T.V.

Anyway it's true, but even so I think this is only temporary. Anime has been on American T.V. since the beginning, and it's now more popular than ever, I don't see why it can't make great presence again on mainstream networks in the near future.

You'd think it'd be the company supported by Shueisha and not FUNimation that is making the smart and fan-friendly release decisions, but noooo...

Yeah, well, when you start out with edited VHS's of Dragonball Z, you have room for improvement.

(shameless "I love FUNimation" plug)

I'll be waiting for the box set. Though Bleach has somewhat spoiled me with the 20/21 episodes per box deal.

Looking at the Nana anime thru Funimation's VOD service thru Comcast....

Dub is good..however they are using starless night as ed 1 instead of A Little Pain....same problem with the nana soundtrack on ITunes....wonder if they had trouble obtaining the rights to the song although I don't see the problem unless the song infringes on some other song we don't know about

really? /looks up
Hmm, now I'm wondering why they changed the ED's too.
