Best news all morning!
FUNimation Entertainment and Geneon Entertainment Sign Exclusive Distribution Agreement for North America
I knew Hellsing Ultimate would get picked up eventually, but they got all of the unfinished titles and a few finished ones. My particular ones I have uncompleted is Kyo Kara Maoh 2, Shonen Onmyoji, and Hellsing Ultimate. Hellsing is going to be the first released this summer.
Oh man. And Anime Expo just started. Funimation already announced Heroic Age, which is another series that I've been wanting to watch. Details on this press release should be talked about this weekend. Hopefully.
Now we just need a release date for Ouran.
ETA: And while there's excitement for this, it looks like frustration for ADV. Apparently they just put most of their new titles on indefinite hiatus according to one reputable online distributor. Their re-release thinpacks seems to be going on fine right now, but discs like the last volume of Kanon, Red Garden's final few volumes, Tokyo Majin, Welcome to the NHK and a couple other of the last new licenses they own have been stopped. Looks like it might be possibly licensing issues.
