Sorry for the shittiness of the picture, I was in a bit of a rush. =P

Sheehan told me there isn’t much new in today’s presentation, but here we go anyway! Adam Sheehan, FUNimation’s events manager returns for his panel-y goodness.

Well, it starts out the same way as Sakura’s presentation: a big ol’ DON’T PANIC. Sheehan just made mention of Sony taking on Miyazaki films– did I miss something? Or is he just talking about Ghibli doing Blu-Ray? Not entirely sure.

The usual downloading stuff– Amazon, iTunes, Xbox, FUNimation.com, etc. FUNi channel, and box sets Viridian Collection (cheap!) and FUNimation Green (eco-friendly!)…

Yeah, this is all pretty much the same ol’ same ol’.

Okay, they DID show the first official cover art for a One Piece DVD, which is custom-done for FUNi’s release. I didn’t catch a shot of it but I’ll try and snap one afterwards (off Sheehan’s computer directly if I must!).

Time for the Q&A! The One Piece boxes are $49.95. It was removed from Cartoon Network but they’re hoping that it will return, but it has to do with Toei and Cartoon Network; FUNi just distros the DVDs. Still no shows from Geneon (trust me, you’ll know when they do). Apparently the slowness on Geneon re-licensing is all the fighting over ‘em!

No street dates for Darker than Black, Claymore, or Jyu Oh Sei. Last couple of questions…more 13-episode box sets from the get-go like with Aquarion to be expected. The end!

Okay, really, really crappy shot of the One Piece box set is up at the top now.
