Miss me? :D
Never let it be said that FUNimation lets an opportunity to pounce on some titles slide– ICv2 reports that Navarre has just begun negotiation to acquire some of Geneon’s catalogue.
Now, me being me, I think that if FUNi wanted to be a TRUE hero they’d consider stepping into ADV’s brief role as Geneon’s sales and distro team– though it may be that Geneon’s hole is deep to the point that their parent company Geneon Japan won’t bother with that.
Well, we’ll see. It’s not hard to imagine FUNi releasing shows like Black Lagoon or Rozen Maiden, and with ADV probably sitting between a financial rock and a hard place, this is a good opportunity for FUNimation to snag some of those fan-favorite titles.
Just…just don’t insist on putting Vic Mignogna in all of them, okay, FUNi? If there’s a dub cast already, just, y’know, leave it as-is…
