[[folder:A]]
* Anime fans had longed for Creator/{{Toonami}} to air one of Creator/SentaiFilmworks shows. So when the Toonami crew at Momocon announced that they are airing ''Manga/AkameGaKill'' in their block, fans were ''ecstatic''.
* Years has passed, still no confirmation for- WAIT! [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2017-10-01/a-certain-magical-index-tv-anime-season-3-confirmed-for-2018/.122108 SEASON 3 OF]] ''Literature/{{A CERTAIN MAGICAL INDEX}}'' [[http://toaru-project.com/index_3/ IS COMING AT LAST!]]
** Sweet, Index III is here time to- wait... [[Manga/ACertainScientificRailgun RAILGUN 3]] AND [[Manga/ACertainScientificAccelerator ACCELERATOR]] ANIME HAVE BEEN ANNOUNCED? FUCK YEAH!
* On June 22, 2020, it was announced that after 32 years, ''Literature/{{Anpanman}}'' [[https://deadline.com/2020/06/tubi-unveils-new-library-content-including-lego-masters-garfield-anpanman-movies-more-at-virtual-newfront-1202966284/ would be getting a legal Western release of six of its' movies]] in not just English, but Spanish as well.
* So Creator/DiscotekMedia is announcing some new licenses, huh? Awesome! They always get great shows and movies, so--what's this? Whoa, they got Tezuka's ''Anime/AThousandAndOneNights'' film? Wait, ''what?!'' ''They got the English dub?! THE SAME ONE THAT WAS SAID TO'' ''[[MissingEpisode HAVE BEEN LOST FOR OVER FIFTY YEARS, TO THE POINT OF BEING CONSIDERED A MYTH?!]]'' Did these guys sell their souls to the devil or something?! TAKE MY MONEY!!!
[[/folder]]

[[folder:B]]
* ''Anime/{{Bananya}}'' has gotten absolutely '''outstanding''' treatment for being a short series. They usually wind up unlicensed...Discotek's giving this one a Blu-ray (before Japan!) and an English dub with Mike Toole as narrator.
* For the love of God, the ''Manga/{{Berserk}}'' anime is getting a remake?! Susumu Hirasawa is back?! OOOHHH YEAAAAH!!!
** It is now confirmed that ''Manga/{{Berserk}}'' will soon be issued in a whole new anime, [[http://en.nicoviewer.info/sm12264010 now with a short to prove it indeed]]. Fangasm ahoy!!
** Bah, they'll just do the same thing they did with the orig- wait a minute, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dL4aTvcNqKo is that the Skull Knight?]] OH. [[BigYes MY.]] [[PunctuatedForEmphasis GOD!]]
** The new ''Manga/{{Berserk}}'' anime will be made up of three films, and they all got licensed by Creator/VizMedia? Nice! But Viz is in California while the voice actors from the dub of the original anime are in New York, so they'll probably replace all the voice actors. Wait, they got all three of the main characters' voice actors back?!
** [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2015-12-21/berserk-gets-new-anime-project-featuring-guts-as-black-swordsman/.96773 New Berserk anime depicting Guts as the Black Swordsman?!]] AND they're finally putting out a box set of the original anime on UsefulNotes/BluRay?! Praise God Hand!
** Man, the 1997 anime is never gonna get a high def blu-ray release. The [=AnimeWorks=] [=DVD=] is out of print and hard to get. *Later* Ooh, Creator/DiscotekMedia is holding a new livestream! They got some good titles, and I wonder what the big thing at the end is gonna be—[[https://twitter.com/discotekmedia/status/1744570436325908559 THEY GOT THE ORIGINAL BERSERK ANIME?!]] AND THE BLU-RAY COMES OUT IN MARCH?! HELL YEAH!!!
* ''Manga/BlackButler'' is getting a second season, with Sebastian and Ciel gone for good? None of the cast returning? Oh WTF come on how-...Then came the day when episode one of ''Black Butler II'' premiered. Let's just say the advertising team trolled the entire fandom.
* Same for the new ''Manga/BlackButler'' arc, "Book of Circus". The first trailer alone was enough to win back the fans who actually hated the second season. Awesome music? Checked. No mention of Alois or Ciel being a demon? Checked. And then we had and absolutely epic curb-stomp battle in the first episode...some reviewers even say that this may be the best season of all three.
* ''Manga/BlackLagoon'' dubbed by Canadians? Oh crap, not another disastrous dub...WOAH! They had more [[ClusterFBomb F-bombs]] than the Japanese original!? In good English!? With actual, ''believable'' accents!? This is going to be fun!
* ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'''s Thousand-Year Blood War arc is finally getting an anime adaptation after all this time? AND the SpinOff one-shot ''Manga/BurnTheWitch2018'' is getting a serialization and an anime film? WOO!
* ''Anime/BlueCometSPTLayzner'' was a fun mecha anime. Too bad Creator/BandaiEntertainment's masters were damaged and blue-tinted, [[NoExportForYou cancelling the release before it even began]]- [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2023-06-26/discotek-licenses-layzner-nanoha-detonation-aim-for-the-ace-2/.199646 hold the phone]], [[LateExportForYou Discotek finally rescued it after 38 years]]? And to make it even sweeter, the masters Discotek got are ''not'' damaged and blue-tinted for once? Take my money!
* ''Manga/BlueExorcist'' is getting an English dub? Thank you, Creator/AniplexUSA! Wait...you're getting ''Creator/JohnnyYongBosch'' to play Yukio? Awesome- that's the fifth Creator/JunFukuyama role he's dubbing!
** Creator/BrycePapenbrook as Rin? Er...hold on, he was [[Manga/VampireKnight Aidou]], [[Literature/{{Durarara}} Kida]] and [[VideoGame/TalesOfGraces Asbel]]? Yay! Rin's in good hands!
** Creator/ChristineMarieCabanos as Shiemi? Okay, I officially love this dub!
** Man, the anime was good up until it stopped following the manga. Wait, there's a new season coming? And it's following the Impure King Arc, meaning it will potentially ignore the latter half of the first season? Sold.
* ''[[Literature/BodaciousSpacePirates Mini-Skirt/Bodacious Space Pirates]]''? I'm not sure about this...Oh, so [[Anime/MartianSuccessorNadesico Tatsuo]] [[Anime/StellviaOfTheUniverse Sato]] is the director? [[SincerityMode Sounds like it might be fun]]. ([[ScheduleSlip 2 years later]]) What the-- [[Creator/SentaiFilmworks Sentai's]] pre-emptively licensed this series? Sign me up!
[[/folder]]

[[folder:C]]
* Why does Australia have to get remasters of ''Manga/CardCaptorSakura'' and we Americans don't?! We haven't gotten new [=DVDs=] since Creator/{{Geneon}}'s demise and it's likely the series will never be picked back up---SAY WHAT?! Creator/DiscotekMedia just got the rights to the first movie and are releasing the remastered version?! TAKE MY MONEY, DISCOTEK!!!
** [[Creator/NipponIchi NIS America]] JUST GOT THE SERIES!!! But wait! It says there's going to be a monaural edited English dub in there. They can't be referring to the atrocious {{Macekre}} that was ''[[Manga/CardCaptorSakura Card Captors]]'', right--'''THE [[Creator/{{Animax}} ANIMAX]] DUB?!?''' The one Creator/MadmanEntertainment tried to get but couldn't because it was too financially taxing?! WE LOVE YOU, NIS America!!!
* Dang it, Creator/SentaiFilmworks, how could they not give ''Literature/LoveChunibyoAndOtherDelusions'' an English dub, but instead give one to a barely recognized show such as Hakenden?! W-wait, what's that? THIS LISTENED TO US?! CHUNIBYO'S GETTING AN ENGLISH DUB AFTER ALL?! REJOICE!
* Bandai's dubbing ''Anime/CodeGeass''? Boooooriiiing! Wait, Creator/CrispinFreeman as Jeremiah!? Creator/YuriLowenthal as Suzaku!? '''Creator/MichaelMcConnohie''' as Emperor Charles!? Man, I'm gonna watch this!
** Creator/JohnnyYongBosch as Lelouch? Boy, talk about [[QuestionableCasting bad casting]]...Wow, he actually pulled it off! With an even better EvilLaugh!
** We've been waiting for three years ''Creator/FUNimation'' where's ''Code Geass'' on DVD and Blu-ray? Wait, October 4, 2016, and legal streaming on their website on release day?! WOOO!
* Let's face it, ''[[Manga/Cyborg009 Cyborg 009: The Cyborg Soldier]]'' is never going to get a proper DVD release. All we got are bad Toonami recordings and the old [=DVDs=] that only contain a few episodes. Oh well, I guess we better--wait, what's this? Creator/DiscotekMedia licensed the series?! ''They're restoring any footage they can find to make it look as high quality as humanly possible?!'' '''''THEY'RE INCLUDING ENGLISH DUBBED VERSIONS OF THE UNAIRED EPISODES?!?''''' Discotek, shut up and take my money!!
[[/folder]]

[[folder:D]]
* ''VisualNovel/DanganronpaTriggerHappyHavoc'' is getting an anime! And its small but devoted fanbase cried tears of joy!
** AND NOW IT'S GETTING AN ENGLISH DUB! BY Creator/{{FUNIMATION}}! WITH A (MOSTLY) NEW ALL-STAR CAST!
* ''Literature/DateALive'' [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-06-21/date-a-live-anime-gets-2nd-season gets a second season.]] Cue much rejoicing. Especially since the LN readers are sure that season 2 will be much better than season 1.
* ''Manga/DeathNote'' is getting dubbed, and they casted Creator/BradSwaile as Light Yagami? ...Holy crap! He really pulled off that evil laugh there!
* ''Manga/DemonSlayerKimetsuNoYaiba'', in Japan, much before the anime was even announced some dedicated groups were already imagining, and hoping, for certain voices to be casted for particular key characters; among many wishes 2 of them stood out the most: japanese fans were clamoring for Creator/SatoshiHino to be the brotherly and loving voice of Kyojuro Rengoku, it didn't take long as the first season for the anime already granted their wish; then there's the Doma case, it is like he was tailored to be voiced by Creator/MamoruMiyano, from his character's inception even the western fandom could see it, and once again years later, in 2022, the fans got what they wanted, Doma is voiced by Miyano.
* Wow, the ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry'' [[Anime/DevilMayCryTheAnimatedSeries anime]] is licensed in America. Let's hope ADV knows what they're- hold up, '''''Creator/ReubenLangdon as Dante?!''''' This party's gettin' crazy!
* ''Manga/DGrayMan Hallow'' is being streamed by Creator/FUNimation as part of its Summer 2016 simulcast season.
** The chapter of D.Gray man of July 14 is confirmed and accompanied with a color page after having been cancelled twice on the recent issues.
* What's this? A legal stateside release of ''Manga/DokonjoGaeru''? [[https://pluto.tv/en/on-demand/series/the-gutsy-frog-las/details/season/1 On Pluto TV]]? ''And'' it's not limited to certain markets this time? Wow! Now if only they would release an English-subtitled version... Wait a second, [[https://pluto.tv/en/on-demand/series/the-gutsy-frog-ptv2/details/season/1 there's an official English-subtitled release as of December 11th]]? ''[[WesternAnimation/StreetFighter Yes!]]'' ''[[MemeticMutation Yes!]]'' [[note]]That said, while it's nice that the series finally has official English subtitles, they're... [[BlindIdiotTranslation less-than-impressive]], to say the least.[[/note]]
* Unless it's by Creator/OsamuTezuka, classic anime never seem to get dubbed in North Americ-wait, DID I HEAR THAT [[Manga/{{Doraemon}} DORAEMON]] IS GETTING SHOWN ON Creator/{{DISNEY XD}}? This is amazing!
** A few months before this announcement, the manga got translated into English.
** I've read that they'll do many edits to Americanize this sh-DID NOBY JUST SAY DORAYAKI IN THE FIRST EPISODE? Awesome!
** Well, it's been nearly 7 years since the US dub has been put onto hiatus, even the voice actors are uncertai-[[WesternAnimation/SouthPark WHA-WHA-WHAT?!]] DID BANG ZOOM MENTION DORAEMON IN THEIR TWEET ON HALLOWEEN COSTUME IDEAS? Well, that might hint about somethi-THEY DUBBED STAND BY ME 2? AND RELEASED IT ON NETFLIX JAPAN?! WITH NEARLY EVERYONE IN THE 2014 DUB REPRISING THEIR ROLES?!? HALLELUJAH!
*** And on Christmas Eve 2021, it's going to get even sweeter- ''Stand by Me 2'' [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2021-11-24/netflix-adds-stand-by-me-doraemon-2-film-on-december-24/.179907 is getting a US release]]. With this announcement, it looks like Christmas is coming early this year! [[note]]Presumably, the first ''Stand by Me'' [[https://twitter.com/WTK/status/1462639721574809604 is getting the same treatment]], but we may need to wait and see for that one.[[/note]]
* The TV anime for ''[[Manga/DoctorSlump Dr. Slump]]'' may never come to the majority of the US[[note]]It ''was'' aired in Hawaii via Nippon Golden Network[[/note]]. All we got were the crossover episodes from ''Manga/DragonBall'' and ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'', as well as the first five movies thanks to Creator/DiscotekMedia, but that's about all we'll see- [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2021-02-24/tubi-tv-adds-dr-slump-saint-seiya-hades-one-piece-toriko-slam-dunk-more-anime/.169905 Huh? What's this?]] Tubi TV is ''adding'' the ''Dr. Slump'' anime to their service? [[LateExportForYou It took long enough, but the]] ''[[LateExportForYou Dr. Slump]]'' [[LateExportForYou TV anime is finally available in the US]].
* ''Manga/DragonQuestTheAdventureOfDai'' has such a good story, especially considering it's based off of a [[Franchise/DragonQuest video game franchise]]. Too bad North America only got [[MarthDebutedInSmashBros an appearance of Dai]] in ''VideoGame/JumpForce'' as well as legal streaming of the 2020 anime adaptation via Platform/{{Crunchyroll}}... wait, [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2021-07-09/viz-to-release-demon-slayer-spinoff-manga-dragon-quest-the-adventure-of-dai-alice-in-borderland-more-manga/.174978 did Viz just announce the license to the original manga]]? All my money, Viz!
* Aniplex is distributing ''Literature/{{Durarara}}'' in America. Dammit, they're probably not even going to bother with a dub and...Huh? They ''are'' giving it a dub? Well, they'll probably outsource it to Singapore and give everyone crappy voices and...Wait a sec - Creator/CrispinFreeman is gonna be in it? As ''[[MemeticBadass Shizuo]]!?'' THIS WILL BE THE GREATEST DUB EVER!
** Let's not forget Creator/JohnnyYongBosch as [[PsychopathicManchild Izaya]], Creator/YuriLowenthal as [[MadScientist Shinra]], Creator/PatrickSeitz as Simon, and Creator/SteveBlum as [[StraightMan Kadota]]!!
** ''Durarara!!'' is going to be on Adult Swim in June!
** Sigh, it's been 4 long years since ''Literature/{{Durarara}}'' aired, and they only covered the first 3 volumes, and then pure silence. Guess that's all we're gonna get... [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2014-03-15/durarara-gets-new-tv-anime-series wait there's a second season coming soon?!?!]] AND the original cast is all coming back? [[BigYes HALLELUJAH!]]
** Creator/YenPress is releasing the original {{Light Novel}}s. ''In English''.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:E]]
* Subverted in the case of the ''Anime/EdenOfTheEast'' dub. Apparently, Oasis' label ''did'' permit Funimation to get the rights of the anime's OP, "Falling Down"...but only for the first episode.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:F]]
* The ''Manga/FairyTail'' anime is coming back, and [[Creator/AyaHirano Aya Hirano]] is staying on as Lucy, despite the fears of the fandom!!!
** At Otakon 2012, Creator/{{FUNimation}} announced that they had the rights to episodes 49-72 of ''Anime/FairyTail'', and the movie, The Priestess of the Phoenix. The best part? They literally got the go-ahead to announce those additions to Fairy Tail that morning.
** Otakon 2014, FUNI revealed a new set of voices for Part 13... wait a second, ''Michael Jones''? As in ''Creator/AchievementHunter'' Michael Jones?! '''''[[RageQuit SWISS FUCKING CHEESE!]]'''''
* So they are going to do an anime of ''Literature/FateZero'', guess we are going to have to get used to Studio DEEN somehow messing this one up...Wait, it's not Studio DEEN? It's [[Literature/TheGardenOfSinners ufotable]] doing the animation and they hired the Drama CD VA's? Nice. But what about the music...Music/YukiKajiura (another person familiar with ''Literature/TheGardenOfSinners'', having done the haunting sound track there. Also just finishing a stint with ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica''). This is going to be good...
** Laconic version: ''Literature/FateZero'' is getting ''Literature/TheGardenOfSinners'' treatment. [[SugarWiki/AwesomeArt Guess what]] [[AdaptationDistillation that]] [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic means]].
* Wait? ''Literature/FateZero'' airing on ''Neon Alley?'' It's getting an English dub? And they got the top [[Creator/CrispinFreeman union]]-[[Creator/KariWahlgren only]] [[Creator/JamiesonPrice voice]] [[Creator/MatthewMercer actors]] in it? '''FUCK YEAH!''' Screw TheOtherDarrin, This is gonna be awesome!
* ''Literature/FateZero'' was a pretty faithful and awesome adaptation. Too bad the ones for the first two routes of ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'' sucked and Heaven's Feel will nev- wait? What's that? There's gonna be a ''Fate/stay night'' remake? Well, I hope it doesn't turn out lik-, WAIT, Creator/{{Ufotable}} is animating? Hell yeah!
** ''Heaven's Feel movie confirmed.'' '''[[Anime/FateStayNightUnlimitedBladeWorks Unlimited Blade Works anime series]] confirmed.''' ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN. Woo WOO!!!
*** [[Anime/FateStayNightHeavensFeel Heaven's Feel movie]] ''[[Anime/FateStayNightHeavensFeel trilogy]]'' confirmed! '''This is going to be awesome.'''
** As if the ''Fate'' franchise couldn't get any bigger, now we have animated adaptations coming for ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'', ''Literature/FateApocrypha'', and ''VideoGame/FateExtra''!
*** More FGO adaptations? Well, First Order wasn't bad but-what? Two Camelot movies and a Babylonia series? Enkidu?! '''And Gilgamesh too!?''' ''[[Anime/FateGrandOrderAbsoluteDemonicFrontBabylonia Absolute Demonic Front Babylonia]]'', here we go!
** A ''Literature/FateStrangeFake'' trailer, okay, what's the appeal? How about top tier animation from Creator/A1Pictures and ''brand new music'' from ''Music/HiroyukiSawano'' made ''just'' for this animation?
* Let's see what Creator/DiscotekMedia has for their Anime Boston panel... [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2022-05-28/discotek-licenses-planet-with-aho-girl-4-more-anime-for-home-video/.186113 huh, they got]] ''The Flying Phantom Ship''. This is likely going to be worth the wait ([[LateExportForYou of 53 years]]), even with no dub and- huh? They ''are'' giving it a dub? Even though most anime that old have probably lost their music and effects tracks? Wait, Creator/MonaMarshall has a role in the dub too? This is going to be ''awesome''.
** What makes this ''more'' [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome awesome]] is the fact that this anime was released in ''1969''- this means the music and effects tracks are around ''53 years old'' at the time of writing. This effectively makes this the oldest anime to ever receive an English dub in the modern day.
*** Another awesome bit of news is that the dub is being produced by [[http://www.kochasound.com/ Kocha Sound]], the group responsible for the very well-liked English dubs of both ''Manga/KemonoJihen'' and ''Anime/AkudamaDrive.'' So it's safe to say ''The Flying Phantom Ship'' will be in good hands.
* While the ''Manga/FruitsBasket'' anime remake was announced to have an all-new Japanese voice cast at the author's request, Creator/{{Funimation}}, the series' American licensor, did the opposite: they elected to [[PuttingTheBandBackTogether bring back a majority of the dub's original cast]] to reprise their roles[[note]]Some replacements were necessary, as the [=VAs=] for characters like Kagura, Momiji, Hana and Uo have long since left the business.[[/note]]. The excited reactions on Platform/{{Twitter}} from fans of the original series (including other fellow voice actors) were especially high with the initial announcement of Creator/LauraBailey coming back to play Tohru Honda, one of her original signature roles.
* Another ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'' anime? Sigh, you know what they did [[Anime/FullmetalAlchemist2003 the last time]]...Hey, isn't that Ling Yao and Lan Fan?!
** Wait a sec...Creator/VicMignogna and Creator/TravisWillingham are back?! The (almost) original cast? Cue fangasm! Oh, the Risembool Rangers and the Miniskirt Army are gonna be all over this!
** They're replacing Roy Mustang's voice actor? Screw that! Wait...they've got ''Miki Shin'ichiro?!''
** Rumors that Creator/AdultSwim had 3 new anime? Eh, it's probably gonna be an attempt to troll us with more [[Series/TimAndEricAwesomeShowGreatJob Tim & Er--]] Wait, it's confirmed that one of them's the new ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist''? YES!!!
*** Bah! They'll just shove it into 2 AM with no advertising -- Wait, it's at 12 AM? And there are ''actual ads?'' Hey, [=AS=] cares about anime after all!
** A certain faction of the fandom experienced another one with the publication of the third art book and its WordOfGod pronouncement that the Roy/Riza ship is, in fact, canon. Specifically, the author said that the military's anti-fraternization law is the only thing keeping them from getting married.
** They'll dub FMA for German release, huh? Oh well, at least you can assume they won't butcher the script, and you can always turn on the original with sub- HOLY SHIT they cast DAVID NATHAN as Roy?! THE GERMAN VOICE OF JONNY DEPP?!!!
* Man, it's been 10 years since ''Literature/FullMetalPanic'' had an anime, will they ever adapt the rest of the novels...[[https://www.reddit.com/r/anime/comments/3pwymh/full_metal_panic_announcement_livestream_in_10/cwatdql WHAT WHAT WHAT A NEW ANIME'S BEEN ANNOUNCED!]] ''Full Metal Panic: Invisible Victory'' will be coming out in 2018!
[[/folder]]

[[folder:G]]
* Aw man... why aren't there more honest to god HumongousMecha anime about HotBlooded pilots kicking ass instead of getting too much into character/human psyche drama? And when are we gonna get something new from ''Manga/GetterRobo''?? Mazinger already got [[Anime/MazingerZInfinity a movie]], but Getter fans have been left in 16-17 years with nothing but old shows, and people have been saying that mecha is dead... Huh? What is this new announcement--''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nriv_B4W8ag GETTER ROBO ARC FOR 2021]]''!?!? Adapting the cliffhanger-ending manga that is ''Getter Robo Ah''!?!? It's not a new IP, but WOO-HOOO!!! GETTER SAVES THE DAY OF MECHA!!
** And it seems that for ''Arc'', [[https://youtu.be/COtxG5jpk6g?t=16 they’re gonna remix “HEATS”]] from ''Getter Robo Armageddon''. Not a bad song, but isn’t it kind of [[BootstrappedTheme overdone]] by this poi-wait, ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWcvMWr13fU THEY’RE ALSO REMIXING “STORM” FROM SHIN GETTER ROBO VS NEO GETTER ROBO?!]]''
* Many fans were resigned to the belief that there would be no more ''Franchise/GhostInTheShell'' anime. Then, Production IG announced that they were working on a new ''Ghost In the Shell'' series which will be released in 2013! YES!
* Crunchyroll has added ''Anime/GiantGorg'' to their Anime Catalog! AWWWWWW YEAH!
** Earlier then that, Creator/DiscotekMedia announced their aquirsation of the ''Anime/GiantGorg'' license for a North American DVD Release.
* ''Manga/{{Gintama}}''[='=]s announcement that they were going to release the Benizakura arc was a BigYes for the fandom. And then, when they decided to bring back the TV series a year later, ''everyone'' went nuts.
** On the US side of things, the fans were sad that Creator/SentaiFilmworks stopped releasing the TV series...until they eventually licensed TheMovie (which covers the [[CerebusSyndrome Benizakura arc]], from the unlicensed portion of said adaptation), with an English dub made for it. To top it off, the ADR director ''isn't'' Steven Foster. Needless to say, much joy was had at that point.
** April 2012. ''Gintama'' was gone, ending with a real closure this time despite one last attempt to troll. But fast forward to August and wait...it couldn't be...a second film with ''Sorachi'' himself involved? AND IS THAT SHIROYASHA IN THE TEASERS? Sunrise you really do care! ''But that's not all.'' The TV anime is returning with not only reruns but new episodes too!! In the 6pm Thursday slot!! Roll on October.
** When they casted Creator/YuuichiNakamura as Kintoki, fans thought it was the best casting ever, considering that the former and Creator/TomokazuSugita (who's Gintoki) are practically HeterosexualLifePartners and having these two try to grab the spotlight of the Kintoki arc would be an immense amount of trolling.
* ''Anime/GunBuster'' really deserves better. All of its previous home video releases were spotty at best, and with all the licensing issues in regards to some of the music, it's likely it'll never get the treatment it—HOLD THE PHONE!! [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2021-08-07/discotek-licenses-gunbuster-girly-air-force-tomorrow-joe-2-the-movie/.175930 Discotek Media licensed it?!]] ''THEY'RE GIVING IT AN ENGLISH DUB MADE BY SOUND CADENCE PRODUCTIONS?! HELL YEAH!!!''
[[/folder]]

[[folder:H]]
* ''Franchise/DotHack'' has been stuck in the limbo since Creator/BandaiEntertainment got itself a "restructuring" back in the days but wait! What's this?! Creator/{{Funimation}} acquired them? They rescued it from from being stuck there? HOORAY!!!!
* ''Literature/{{Haganai}}'' gets an English dub? [[BigYes YES]]! Creator/JerryJewell is Kodaka? OH YEAH! Creator/JadSaxton as Sena?! Wait! She was [[Literature/IsThisAZombie Haruna]] and is kicking well! And Creator/AlexisTipton as Rika? SHUT THE HELL UP AND GET MY MONEH!
* Crunchyroll hasn't done much with their Creator/SentaiFilmworks partnership yet, aside from four series- wait, [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2021-05-19/crunchyroll-sentai-filmworks-announce-new-home-video-releases/.172957 they announced 11 more titles for home video release]]? Sounds cool, but one of them is [[WesternAnimation/OnyxEquinox not really an ani]]- ''Manga/{{Haikyuu}} To the Top'' is one of the series slated for home video release? Sentai, all my money!
* Season two of ''Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya'' was such a let down...we didn't get any ''Vanishment'' episodes..."Endless Eight", you are officially [[FanonDiscontinuity forgotten]]. Wait, a movie...'''BASED ON ''VANISHMENT''?!!!!'''.
** Not to mention the movie appears to have art close to Season 1, as opposed to the low-quality "Manga/KOn-ification" of Season 2.
** The dub of Season 2 will be released in a boxset. Thanks [[Creator/CristinaValenzuela Cristina]]!
*** Wait, Bandai didn't just license Season 2, but also the movie?! AND ''Manga/HaruhiChan'' and ''[[Manga/HaruhiChan Nyoron Churuya-san]]''?! And they're all being dubbed?!! (cue mass applauding)
** As for the Kyon/Yuki shippers, there was much cheering, and {{Squee}}s after the whole movie. Yuki has a major crush on Kyon, [[CaughtTheHeartOnHisSleeve and the tugging of his jacket]], and her [[TheWoobie Woobie-ness]]...
** They're gonna release the 1st part of Novel 10 in the next Sneaker magazine? Pfft...*2 months later* OMG! It's true! There's a 70-page preview! Ryoko is back!
*** While Baka-Tsuki project has been forced to stop, you can still find translations on the internet, and according to the BT forums, the Cease and Desist letter only covered the first 9 novels. It's now up to the translators to see whether they want to risk angering the lawyers.
** There'll be a spinoff anime of ''The Melancholy of Yuki Nagato''! The franchise is still alive!
** Haruhi and the SOS Brigade are back, ladies and gentlemen!!! VOLUME 11 HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED AS OF SEPTEMBER 1ST, 2020!!!!!!!!!! Even better? IT'S GETTING A SIMULTANEOUS ENGLISH AND JAPANESE WORLDWIDE RELEASE IN NOVEMBER 2020!!!!!!!!!! SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
* The English dub of ''Manga/{{Hellsing}} Ultimate'' got this when it was announced that pretty much all of the English cast for the TV series, including Creator/CrispinFreeman, would be returning. Rightly so, considering that, if anything, the dub of ''Ultimate'' is even better than the original series' dub.
** And in November 2011, Funimation announced they will finally dub episodes 5-8 with the same cast and crew as before. Much rejoicing indeed.
*** Plus, "''When You Start the War, Fight With Arrows, Spears and Swords!''" was one of the most popular songs from ''Hellsing'' TV. When we heard it as the ending theme to ''Hellsing Ultimate'' episode 8, we were so happy.
** Come October 28, 2014, the English dub of [[OriginalVideoAnimation OVAs]] 9 and 10 will be released, completing the series.
* Ah, Creator/{{FUNimation}} is dubbing ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers''? Cool...Wait, they're using ''[[EverythingSoundsSexierInFrench accents?]]''
** There was also a small bout of panic when it was announced that the [[MemeticMutation Ending Theme]] was going to be changed. And then the preview [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic for Hatafutte Parade was released...]]
** Some against type casting (mainly Creator/VicMignogna as Greece) was offset by some really great choices for [[Creator/MonicaRial Belarus]], [[Creator/ChristopherSabat Rome]], [[Creator/BrinaPalencia Chibitalia]], and [[Creator/MaxeyWhitehead Sealand]]. And then came [[Creator/JerryJewell some of]] [[Creator/JMichaelTatum the]] [[Creator/EricVale main]] [[Creator/ToddHaberkorn characters]], sending the squees to a fever pitch.
** Hetalia season four? Zippedy-doo-dah! Creator/{{FUNimation}} licensed that, season three, ''and'' the movie, all on the same day? HALLELUJAH! I'll go get the defibrillators...
** So [[Creator/HidekazHimaruya Himaruya's]] taking Christmas requests again this year? Sweet...HOLY CRAP IS THAT [[EverythingSoundsSexierInFrench FRANCE!?]] LET THE 2010 [[NakedPeopleAreFunny BLOODBATH]] BEGIN!
** In general, when a country is revealed the fandom rejoices (especially fans from said country). Fans will also rejoice if a country is added into the manga plot.
** When Himaruya returned after an 8 month haitus, there was much rejoicing done on tumblr and livejournal.
** Season 5? Great! New designs that are much closer to the manga artwork? AWESOME!
** 2014 was a year of awesome for Hetalia fans. A bi-monthly comic is running in Shonen Jump, a whole 3 years since the strips were running at a regular and constant pace. The flood of new content was overwhelming for fans. ''Then'' Hima released designs for the UK brothers, all of whom he has been hinting at since ''the beginning of the webcomics.'' Then he introduced Portugal, a character whose designs' were released a good year ago and fans have been waiting eagerly for. It really was a great year for the fandom, especially considering discussions of it dying...down of...HOLY CRAP, SEASON 6 IS HAPPENING! WOO!
** In 2016, season six is finally getting a dub! Christmas is coming early!
* So the ''Literature/HighSchoolDXD'' anime is over. [[IdiotHero Issei]] defeats [[{{Jerkass}} Riser]] in an EngagementChallenge and gets the girl of his dreams (Rias) to like him. So all is well. But wait. Sirzechs and Grayfia did mention the "Vanishing Dragon" at the end. Maybe there's hope for a second season.
** Wait, a second season has been announced? ''Hell'' yeah!
** And a ''second'' OVA episode will come in 2013? ''Right after'' the first one was released in Japan?! And it's ''also'' written by [[WordOfGod Ishibumi]] [[MemeticMutation himself]]?! '''AWESOME!!!'''
** Season three has been green-lit! Only three words to describe this: '''[[Franchise/CodeGeass ALL]] [[Creator/NorioWakamoto HAIL]] [[MemeticMutation OPPAI]]!!!'''
* ''Manga/HunterXHunter'' is getting a new anime? With less filler? And will adapt the Chimera Ant arc?
** It think it's time to pack it in. It's been four years, and nobody is licensing it... Wait, Viz Media announced that they are going to dub it? The show is now just one step closer to airing on Toonami!
** Don't get your hopes up. They're probably going to use the same voice actors from the mediocre dub of the 1999 anime. Wait? It's being dubbed in-house? And Creator/EricaMendez is voicing Gon? She was perfect for Gon the second we heard her in ''Manga/MagiLabyrinthOfMagic!''

* After however many years of waiting, we finally have a full release of the Japanese version of ''Anime/KirbyRightBackAtYa'', in a higher quality than it's ever been shown before. While there isn't any news of a full release of the English dub, this Blue Ray box set does come with the first episode's dub. Time will tell whatever happens to the rest of it.
* ''Manga/{{Kochikame}}'' is getting a new anime TV project to celebrate it's 40th anniversary.
* The first opening to ''Manga/{{Kodocha}}'', "7 O'Clock News", was not cleared for Funimation's releases of the anime thanks to Johnny's & Associates' tight grip on their music acts, and it's unlikely the song will ever [[NoExportForYou make it outside of Japan]]... hang on, [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2020-12-14/discotek-licenses-kodocha-kenichi-daimos-black-rock-shooter/.167443 not only did Discotek rescue the anime]], they also got all the music rights cleared?[[note]]That said, this is likely due to a management change over at Johnny's as the agency is now managed by Johnny Kitagawa's niece, Julie Keiko Fujishima after Johnny himself passed away in 2019.[[/note]] And not to mention they also got the second part, [[LateExportForYou which is finally being released in North America]]? Discotek, you rock!

* ''Anime/LittleNemoAdventuresInSlumberland'' will come to Blu-Ray. They'll probably cheap out on extra content like for the DVD, but at least we can watch the movie in HD...and with Japanese audio and English subtitles? Plus, Creator/StudioGhibli's pilot will get included as a bonus feature? Goll-ee!

They just got the first season, with the [[FanNickname green jacket]] Lupin and the episodes done by Creator/HayaoMiyazaki? I don't care if it's not dubbed, this is '''awesome!'''
** Many fans jumped for joy when [[Anime/LupinIIITheWomanCalledFujikoMine a new Lupin III TV series starring Fujiko]] was announced for the Spring 2012 anime season. Over 20 years since the Anime/LupinIIIPartIII series ended!
*** What's more, Takeshi Koike would be doing the character designs and the style would be [[DarkerAndEdgier more in line]] with Monkey Punch's original manga.
*** And then at Otacon 2012, Creator/{{FUNimation}} announced that they were dubbing the series, with Creator/MichelleRuff reprising her role as Fujiko.
** But wait, there's more! Not only is Discotek re-releasing ''Anime/TheMysteryOfMamo'', but they're including [[http://lupinthethird.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=94:exclusive-discotek-licenses-qthe-secret-of-mamoq&catid=1:latest ALL FOUR DUBS]] of the film (Creator/{{Geneon}}, Creator/StreamlinePictures, Creator/MangaUK, and the old Creator/{{Toho}} dub) on the DVD!
** DISCOTEK GOT '''CASTLE OF CAGLIOSTRO.''' REJOICE!!!
*** Along with the Creator/StreamlinePictures and Creator/MangaEntertainment dubs of the film, '''Castle of Cagliostro''' will also include a subtitle track containing [[http://castleofcagliostro.tumblr.com/post/102600003062/1980-subtitles the original (1980) subtitle script]] for the film.
** The latest Lupin title to be picked up by Discotek: ''Jigen's Tombstome'', with the film getting an English dub to boot.
** The Blue Jacket series is not only going to be dubbed (something people worried wouldn't happen), but is going to bring back almost all the voice talent from the Red Jacket series (except Zenigata's) for a reunion!
** ''Anime/LupinIIIPartIII'' hasn't been released to physical media in North America yet, and Discotek's been busy with many Lupin specials (re-releases included), so it looks like it'll be a whi- [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2020-12-14/discotek-licenses-kodocha-kenichi-daimos-black-rock-shooter/.167443 Hold the phone, did you just say]] Discotek licensed ''Pink Jacket'' for an SD on BD release? [[NoDubForYou Nevermind that it isn't dubbed]], [[PunctuatedForEmphasis this. Is. Awesome]].
** [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2021-05-25/lupin-iii-franchise-gets-6th-anime-series-for-50th-anniversary/.173157 A new Lupin anime was announced]]? And is that the ''Green Jacket'' Lupin? When's the anime releasing?
* ''Franchise/LyricalNanoha'': Reinforce (Eins) fans cheered when it turned out that their beloved Ein would be getting more screentime in the second movie.
** Oh great, a new Nanoha manga based around card games and no magic? This is going to...Wait, is that Precia? Linith? Alicia? And they're NICE?! Wait, is that Fate? Fate and Alicia are both alive?! Cool! And they work with Lindy? Awesome!
*** Yeah, but that's not really that...Did I just see the Materials? The Florian sisters? Yuri? And the Materials and Yuri have last names now?! Holy fuck yes!
*** Hayate and her family will probably be...Reinforce Eins Yagami?! Screw the movie, this is getting awesome!
*** Yuuno's slated to actually be in this manga too? Holy damn, it's like 7arcs is trying to apologize to everyone for every perceived slight the franchise has had since A's ended almost 10 years ago.
** The announcement that the third movie was finally being brought out of DevelopmentHell was met with much fanfare. Then it was revealed that the cast from the video games would be in it. And for the icing on top, it was announced that it would be getting a US screening.

The legal issues are ''finally'' over this time?

The legal issues are over at last!

Nozomi, Anime Limited, all my money!
** The most shocking thing for the fandom in general is that the court case that started it all, that made Harmony Gold declare defacto ownership of Macross was the original ''TabletopGame/BattleTech'' court case... and the one that ended it was effectively the same case!
* They’re going to adapt the ''Restart'' arc of ''Literature/MagicalGirlRaisingProject'' at long last! Get ready, blood game fans!
* ''Anime/MagicalPrincessMinkyMomo'' is getting movie dub compilation streams on Amazon, courtesy of William Winckler Productions. Oh boy, that dub will be laughable-- wait, it's actually the old Harmony Gold dub (that never got broadcasted in the US)? Might not be so bad, although the method's outdated. Hold up, the movies will cover the ENTIRE 63-episode series without any edits if they succeed? Where do I sign up!?
* Okay, it got some special episodes as part of ''Manga/CaseClosed'', but -- a full ''Manga/MagicKaito'' ANIME? For Fall 2014?! YES!
* ''Manga/MagiLabyrinthOfMagic'' getting an English dub? AND airing on Creator/NeonAlley? And being dubbed by Bang Zoom! [[note]]they are holding opening audtions for a role in Magi[[/note]]. HELL YES!!
* ''Anime/MarvelAnimeXMen'' being aired on G4 with an English dub... oh great, they're going to get Creator/MiloVentimiglia back as... wait... '''Creator/SteveBlum''' coming back as '''''ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}''''' in the X-Men anime!! [=W00T=]!!! Marvel, you have finally been redeemed in the Anime/MarvelAnime project.

While it hasn't been confirmed if the project will be an Anime yet (For now all we know is that it'll air an animated promo on October 25th at the Tamashii Nation 2019 event), it's enough to make fans hopeful!
** And it turns out [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkwrnvAfTUk we are getting a new Anime after all!]]
* ''{{Anime/Mewkledreamy}}'': Why is it that Yume is the only Dream Partner that can transform into a MagicalGirl and [[JourneyToTheCenterOfTheMind use Dream Synchro]]? Oh well, let's see how Mix is like... WHAT THE HELL!? THEY TRANSFORM!? ALL FIVE OF THEM!?!?!?
* Man, I wish ''Anime/MillenniumActress'' got a new re-release, as the old one is just terrible. Oh well, at least we can--wait, what?! Eleven Arts licensed the movie with plans for a future DVD/Blu-Ray re-release?! ''They're giving it a limited run in theaters?! WITH A BRAND NEW ENGLISH DUB?!'' Eleven Arts, take my money!!!
* Hey kids, remember ''Anime/MonColleKnights''? That was a great show! Creator/DiscotekMedia licensed it? Awesome! But wait, it's sub only because according to Justin Sevakis, the English dub master tapes might be lost forever! Noooo! The glorious English dub will probably never get a proper home video release! Cut to December 2021, and fans absolutely EXPLODED upon seeing an English-dubbed clip from one of the missing episodes, "Grin and Bear It." Ladies and gentlemen, the long, long search for the missing English dub has finally ended! ''Anime/MonColleKnights'' is back, bitches!!
* So many Creator/DiscotekMedia Blu-rays coming this year, many of them announced at the December panel, I wonder how they can top- [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2022-02-11/discotek-licenses-mrs-pepperpot-anime/.182539 wait, what's this]]? ''Literature/MrsPepperpot'', on standard-definition Blu-ray, and likely its first release in the United States at that? I mean, I like the fact that more retro anime series are coming from Discotek, [[ButForMeItWasTuesday but that's a given and this one might be insignificant for this]]- wait, it has the dub too? [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Take. My. Money.]]
* ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' is getting an anime? But the manga isn't even two years old yet. They're going to cram filler in it, I just know it. Wait, Studio Bones is making the anime? Well, maybe their fillers won't be so bad.
** Man, the voice of Bakugo in the Vomic was underwhelming. Wait, Bakugo is getting a new voice actor for the anime? And it's Creator/NobuhikoOkamoto? And Creator/AoiYuuki is going to be Tsuyu? Sign me up.
** Shinso has appeared in the manga and it's been confirmed Aizawa had been training him to help with his wish to join the Hero Course. The fandom went ''crazy''.

* Creator/VizMedia previously released the anime adaptation of ''Manga/{{Nana}}'', but the license expired on them, making the show out-of-print... it seems that the anime will be in eternal licensing hell, just like the anime adaptations of Creator/AiYazawa's [[Manga/NeighborhoodStory other]] [[Manga/ParadiseKiss works]], which are either [[NoExportForYou unreleased in the US]] or [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes out-of-print]]- [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2021-01-27/sentai-licenses-nana-tv-anime/.168862 Wait,]] Creator/SentaiFilmworks rescue-licensed ''Nana''? Complete with a potential Blu-ray release? Thanks, Sentai!
** Welp, they released it to Blu-ray, alright... as a steelbook (steelbooks are nice and all, but a steelbook release is not as exciting when it's the only physical release [[CrackIsCheaper and expensive to boot]]), and so far no word on- ''[[https://www.sentaifilmworks.com/collections/pre-order/products/816726021454-nana-complete-collection-blu-ray What the heck, Sentai?]]'' A standard edition Blu-ray release after all these years of ''Nana'' being out-of-print, ''finally''?

** Kodansha takes over publishing ''Negima'' in America...hello, what's this? Re-releasing the early volumes in an omnibus edition? ''Re-translated?''
* Man, there's no way ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'' is going to get a Blu-Ray release. The old [=ADV=] [=DVD=]s are out of print, the show itself has become ridiculously expensive to license, and Creator/{{Netflix}}'s new dub of the show is...not great, and Netflix anime don't often get home video releases. What's it going to take to--WHAT?! [[Creator/{{GKids}} GKIDS]] LICENSED THE ENTIRE FRANCHISE FOR HOME VIDEO RELEASE In 2021?! AWWWWW YEAH!! TAKE MY MONEY!!![[note]]At this point in time, there's no word on whether the [=ADV=] dub or the song ''Fly Me To The Moon'' will be included. But regardless, the fact that the show is getting a new Blu-Ray release at all has made fans very happy. To further empathize how out of nowhere this news is, [=GKids=] is a small company that mainly licenses and dubs movies. They did license two other shows, but they're not well known enough to warrant discussion, and small companies typically don't have the kind of money that shows like Eva are asking for in terms of licensing prices.[[/note]]

** Funimation licensing ''Manga/OnePiece'' after 4Kids lost the rights. Nothing more really needs to be said here.
** The announcement that Funimation would be releasing episodes again after over a year.
** For manga readers, the news that Viz would be releasing five volumes per month starting in 2010, bringing the English edition up to speed with the Japanese one.
*** A more minor example, but many fans were happy when it was announced that professional translator Stephen Paul was hired to translate the manga for Shonen Jump Alpha.
** Holy crap! Funimation just licensed both the fifth season and...''[[Anime/OnePieceFilmStrongWorld STRONG WORLD]]''?! Funimation, all my money!!!
*** ''One Piece'' HAS NOW BEEN OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED TO JOIN Creator/AdultSwim's TOONAMI LINEUP!!!!!!!!
** Come September 30th, not only will Funimation start releasing Thriller Bark, but they're also releasing ''Anime/OnePieceFilmZ''! Keep it coming Funi!
** The long-anticipated Wano arc will be directed by Tatsuya Nagamine, the same director of ''Anime/DragonBallSuperBroly'', and what we've seen is GLORIOUS!
** After a lengthy hiatus starting mid-2018 and going throughout 2019, Funimation confirmed that they will be resuming the English dub starting with Punk Hazard. About time!
** December 2023, at the end of of jump fiesta, Wit studio announced they are preparing a one piece anime reboot. At long last, the whole fandom could kiss all of Toei's issues goodbye.

*** Alas, [[UnfinishedDub they were never picked up]]... guess we're never getting Pri- [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2021-02-09/crunchyroll-adds-idol-time-pripara-anime-to-catalog/.169323 wait, what?]] Did you say Crunchyroll got ''Idol Time [=PriPara=]''? It's not the first ''[=PriPara=]'' anime, but at this point, ''any'' shred of ''[=PriPara=]'' is better than [[NoExportForYou nothing]].
** ''VideoGame/KirattoPriChan'' is good, but I kind of miss ''[=PriPara=]''. Hey, what's this? '''A fashion show episode where the Yattemita shows Miracle Kiratts changing into [=PriPara=] outfits?''' Looks like Takara Tomy hasn't forgotten about [=PriPara=] after all!
** Speaking of ''Anime/KirattoPriChan'', after years of ''Anime/PrettyRhythmAuroraDream'', ''Anime/PrettyRhythmDearMyFuture'', ''Anime/PrettyRhythmRainbowLive'', and even ''VideoGame/PriPara'' not being licensed (we likely only got ''Anime/KingOfPrism: Shiny Seven Stars'' on the virtue of it airing at OtakuOClock, on top of [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForLittleGirls not being aimed at the franchise's regular demographic to begin with]]), [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2020-12-31/crunchyroll-adds-kiratto-pri-chan-anime-to-catalog/.168011 it was announced in late 2020 that]] Crunchyroll got ''Pri Chan''. Yes, ''the'' same Crunchyroll that got ''Anime/PrettyCure'' out of licensing hell 6 months earlier. Thanks, Crunchyroll!
** So [[Anime/WacchaPriMagi a new project in the]] ''Pretty Series''? OK... oh, [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2021-06-24/pretty-series-franchise-marks-10th-anniversary-with-waccha-primagi-tv-anime/.174384 so it's based around magic as well as its usual idol singer elements]]? Sounds amazing, but too bad it's never being simulcast; at best, [[LateExportForYou they'll release the first 51 episodes several years late]] and- oh wait, it ''is'' [[https://www.sentaifilmworks.com/a/news/sentai-to-debut-waccha-primagi-anime-this-fall being simulcast]]? Hold on, ''a Blu-ray release would follow later on?'' Creator/SentaiFilmworks, when the pre-order goes up, take my money!
* ''Manga/ThePrinceOfTennis'' has been out-of-print for a while now, and not all of the anime series was translated, so chances are that we're never gonna- wait, did you say Creator/{{Funimation}} [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2021-04-02/funimation-adds-the-prince-of-tennis-anime-franchise-including-2021-game-of-future/.171422 got it?]] And we got more or less ''the whole thing'' this time? Funimation, all my money.
** The cherry on top? Instead of re-releasing Creator/VizMedia's old dub and having the rest be [[NoDubForYou sub-only]], Funimation opted to give the show a re-dub in a similar situation to ''Anime/SailorMoon'', ''Manga/SaintSeiya'', and ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion''.
* Dammit, ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'' is being postponed indefinitely...how can can this be happen--Hang on, [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2011-04-10/madoka-magica-anime-to-resume-on-april-21 They're going to air the final 2 episodes]] after all? '''THIS IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!!!''' and it's back-to-back, even!
** A video game for the PSP by Creator/BandaiNamcoEntertainment? TheProblemWithLicensedGames rears up agai- Gen Urobuchi is supervising the scenario? Creator/StudioSHAFT is still doing animation? Gekidan [=InuCurry=] is designing new witches? March can't come soon enough.
** Hey, it looks like there are going to be two {{Compilation Movie}}s of the series! [[NoExportForYou Too bad it's only going to be screened in Ja]]- what? They're going to be distributed worldwide!? That's terrific news! [[SubvertedTrope Oh wait...they're only screening in a select few areas, and at bad times too]]...[[YankTheDogsChain life's not fair]]!
** Really there will be a second, completely NEW Madoka movie? And Yuki Kaijura makes the music? And Homura for once will be the main character? This movie will ROCK!
** [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2015-12-08/madoka-magica-concept-movie-will-be-core-of-new-project/.96224 THIRD film]] announced!
** After said concept movie, there was little news on the main ''Madoka'' project. Oh well, at least we have the anime of ''[[VideoGame/MagiaRecordPuellaMagiMadokaMagicaSideStory Magia Record]]'' to tide us o- [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2021-04-25/madoka-magica-gets-new-anime-film-as-sequel-to-2013-rebellion-film/.172103 Did you just say a sequel film to]] ''Rebellion'' was announced? It took [[SequelGap 8+ years]], but Madoka's ''[[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome back]]''.

* ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'' has been OOP since 2009. Now at Otakon 2013, Creator/VizMedia will re-release the ''entire'' series on both DVD ''and'' Blu-Ray ''and'' will air it on Neon Alley this fall. Hell yeah!
* So, Creator/NozomiEntertainment is about to announce a "mystery license". I wonder which anime...Wait, they are licensing ''Manga/TheRoseOfVersailles''? Does this mean the anime is ''finally'' going to be released in the US?! '''''AWWWWW YES!!!'''''
** The manga has been licensed by UdonEntertainment, at long last! This one is especially an achievement since it was deemed impossible to license because Ikeda wanted a licensing fee that no known American publisher could even think to afford.
* Ladies and gentlemen, ''Manga/RozenMaiden'' just got a new anime. [[MemeticMutation It's desu time!]]
* Hm...''Anime/RevolutionaryGirlUtena'' is getting rema-oh [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion PLATNIUM]] (almost)! Oh, but we'll never see it in America, Central Park Me-Nozomi picked it up [[{{Squee}} OH GOD AND THEY ARE ASKING ADVICE FROM FANDOM]]!
* ''Manga/RurouniKenshin'' is to get a [[http://geek-news.mtv.com/2011/04/18/rurouni-kenshin-gets-new-anime/ new anime series]] along with a [[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2011-06-27/sankei-sports/rurouni-kenshin-manga-gets-live-action-film live action movie]]. Are we finally going to get our Jinchuu Arc animated?!
** As it turns out, nope. It was two [=OAVs=] retelling the Kyoto arc with new animation.

[[folder:S]]
* Man, ''Manga/SaintSeiya'' can't seem to catch a break. It's first dub by Dic Entertainment was a heavily censored mess, and [=ADV=]'s old dub tried to fix it but never got past episode 60. Considering the show's track record in North America, there's no way it'll ever get a faithful dub that covers the entire--wait, hold the phone! Creator/{{Netflix}} managed to license the entire series and are streaming it?! THEY'RE GIVING IT A NEW ENGLISH DUB THAT'LL ACTUALLY BE COMPLETE?! The armor Gods have smiled upon us at last!!
* The [[YuriGenre yuri manga]] ''Sakura Trick'' is [[http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2013/06/13/anime-to-adapt-yuri-four-panel-manga-sakura-trick getting an anime?]] Eh, it'll probably be overdosed on ShipTease and vague {{subtext}}, like [[HideYourLesbians practically every]] [[ButNotTooGay anime with yuri.]] Wait...the lead girls have a ''page-long'' makeout session...''in the first chapter?'' And ''another one'' in the second chapter?! '''[[YuriFan YAY!]]'''
* ''Anime/SamuraiPizzaCats'' to be released DUBBED AND SUBBED in DVD. DISCOTEK, ALL MY MONEY!!!
** Sadly, Japan is getting the Box Sets earlier on than US. Take that!
** It also got an official book released, and new toys are on the horizon. All this after around 2 decades of absolutely nothing.
* This is a bit old, but...Creator/{{MEDIA BLASTERS}} LICENSED THE FIRST SEASON OF [[Manga/SayonaraZetsubouSensei SAYONARA ZETSUBOU SENSEI!!!]] Finally!!! Now if only they would stop [[ScheduleSlip postponing its release]]...
** Unfortunately, Media Blasters' license expired- huh? Creator/NozomiEntertainment's re-licensed it? That's good, but [[ScheduleSlip it's still being delayed for reasons different from that of]]- wait, [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2021-05-11/nozomi-ent-to-release-all-of-sayonara-zetsubou-sensei-anime-franchise/.172580 they're releasing everything from the anime]]? It's gonna be worth the wait.
*** [[https://www.rightstufanime.com/Sayonara-Zetsubou-sensei-Season-1-Liner-Notes-Book-Blu-ray We now have confirmation that the first season's Blu-ray is]] [[HopeSpot coming out in February 2022]]- [[SubvertedTrope What, it's being delayed?]] ''Again?''
* ''VideoGame/SengokuBasara'' had an animation series, and then Creator/{{FUNimation}} picks it up for dubbing. We know the disaster of ''Devil Kings'' so I guess they will dub them as Devil Ki--HOLD UP, THEY ARE DUBBING IT AS THE ORIGINAL SOURCE OF SENGOKU BASARA!?!? '''[[GratuitousEnglish PUT YA GUNZ ON!!!]]'''
** What? Creator/ReubenLangdon is not reprising his role as UsefulNotes/DateMasamune for the anime? Boo...Wait a sec, what's this?? Creator/StephanieSheh and Creator/LauraBailey as Kasuga and Oichi!? Oh the bliss of Sheh orgasming! And Bailey is probably the most perfect person to lift up the [[AmericansHateTingle American hate]] towards Ichi! This is still going to be great, even without Masamune sounding like [[VideoGame/DevilMayCry Dante]]...
*** And not only that, Creator/JohnnyYongBosch returns as Yukimura Sanada!
* Creator/{{FUNimation}} dubbing ''Manga/SgtFrog'' could be considered one of these moments, though many fans were wary of the dub using a loose translation, which could go [[{{Woolseyism}} either]] [[{{Macekre}} way]]...then it was revealed that Creator/ChristopherSabat is voicing Giroro.
** Of course, a loose translation was exactly what the ''Sgt. Frog'' anime needed, in order to offset how watered and toned down the anime production was from the original manga. To say nothing of how the implementation of it was almost sheer genius in everything from episode titles to obscure references that even the nerdiest nerds of nerdom wouldn't have expected.
** Oh and of course, the "Test Episode". WHAT IS THIS?? NATSUMI RENAMED TO NATALIE?? THE FROGS NAMES CHANGED TO BE ONE LESS SYLLABLE? PLANET WUSSIAN?! MISTER FURBOTTOM?!? WHAT ARE THEY DOING, IT'S RUINED FOREVER!! Oh wait! They listened to the fans feedback and the real series will have no transliterated name changes after all?? Hooray for Creator/{{FUNimation}}!!!!
** In March 2021, Creator/DiscotekMedia announced that [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2021-03-08/discotek-licenses-dear-brother-sgt-frog-kashimashi-nyanbo-anime/.170404 they'd be releasing every episode on Blu-ray]]. [[NotHyperbole Yes, you heard that right.]] ''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis Every.]] [[ArchivePanic Single.]] [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome Episode.]]''
* The 2001 anime adaptation of ''Manga/ShamanKing'' had it rough in the US ever since its TV run ended. Only two uncut volumes were released (which are out-of-print), the edited-for-TV version [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes was even less lucky]], not seeing any release, and may never see a- [[https://twitter.com/discotekmedia/status/1402068344434425857 wait, what?]] The 2001 series was announced for release by Creator/DiscotekMedia? With the uncut subtitled version at a later date as well? Take my money!
* The new seasons of ''Literature/{{Slayers}}'' are being dubbed by Creator/{{FUNimation}}? Oh, great, they'll probably just end up getting ADV's cast from the movies and-WHAT? They're bringing back the voice actors from the first three TV series?! OUR PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED!
** [[TheOtherDarrin Aw, but they replaced David Moo]]. His great Xellos performance easily made up for that [[NarmCharm laughably awful]] [[Manga/OnePiece Sanji]] voice of his...Wait. Creator/MichaelSinterniklaas is the one replacing him? This might be interesting.
* ''Anime/SSSSGridman'' is getting a new Anime set in the same universe called "''[[https://dynazenon.net/ SSSS.DYNAZENON]]''", seemingly starring Dyna Dragon!
* Creator/{{Sunrise}} is opening a new light novel publishing imprint named "Yatate Bunko", which they will use to release projects based off of their most popular works. One of said projects? ''[[Anime/GaoGaiGar King of Braves: GaoGaiGar]] vs. Anime/{{Betterman}}! HECK YEAH!''
** And now ''[=GaoGaiGar=] vs. Betterman'' is getting a Web Manga adaptation!
* ''Literature/SwordArtOnline'' is getting an anime release? They're going to cover up to the Fairy Dance arc? Awesome!
** And Music/YukiKajiura is composing the soundtrack. Hell yeah!
*** '''SECOND SEASON. PHANTOM BULLET. GUN GALE ONLINE. YES.'''
** Until this new series comes on, where can I watch ''Sword Art Online'' now that its run on Toonami is fini....it's on Netflix!?
** The original {{Light Novel}}s are being released in America by Creator/YenPress. No-one thought this would happen.
* After Voyager Entertainment [[NoDubForYou botched]] [[BadExportForYou attempt]] to bring Anime/SpaceBattleshipYamato2199 to America, It's safe to say that we will never see the series... wait, Creator/{{Funimation}}'s [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2017-11-03/funimation-to-offer-english-dub-of-star-blazers-space-battleship-yamato-2199/.123583 dubbing it]]! They're streaming it on their website, with Crunchyroll streaming the subtitled version.
** Old school fans also appreciate some of the terms from the original [[Anime/SpaceBattleshipYamato anime]]'s dub, such as "Megameter" and "Planet Bomb", being used as MythologyGags.
* ''Anime/{{Symphogear}}'' is getting a second season, okay more Creator/NanaMizuki singing and Kicking ass. Let's see the new additions to the cast: Creator/YokoHikasa and Creator/YuiHorie. Good, good. Creator/NanaMizuki and Creator/YokoHikasa IN A DUET!! ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!

* ''Manga/ToLoveRu'' is already long over. What? Its got an anime called ''Motto To Love Ru''. Sweet. A couple months later, the manga announces its triumphant return, with extra plot and a double dose of fanservice. Incredible. Then its announced that there will be side chapters published in a sister magazine. Better and better. And the newest piece of news? ''To Love-ru Darkness'' is having an anime release? The one manga that was declared too hot for tv is being released on tv? YES! I AM SO WATCHING IT! Its a good day to be a ''To Love Ru'' fan.
* Toonami announced that [=JoJo=]'s Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders would premiere on July 29th, 2017, and the second season of Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans would begin airing in October 2017.
* So [[Creator/NipponIchi NIS America]] said they were looking into dubbing at [=AX=] 2013, yawn...if they going to keep their word on... what this? They're reissuing ''Literature/{{Toradora}}'' with an English dub on Blu-Ray? It's being dubbed by Creator/BangZoomEntertainment, and they got some nice [[Creator/ChristineMarieCabanos voice]] [[Creator/JohnnyYongBosch actors]] [[Creator/ErikKimerer in]] [[Creator/CassandraLeeMorris the]] [[Creator/ErikaHarlacher cast]]? This is gonna be awesome!
* Man, ''Anime/{{Tsuritama}}'' is never gonna get dubbed! Sentai's just gonna give it a sub only release--WHAT?! ITS GETTING DUBBED AND A BLU-RAY?!? YAAAAY!!!
* ''Anime/TokyoGodfathers'' is such a great movie. It's a shame it's never gotten an English dub--hold that thought! ''Creator/GKids is giving it a dub and releasing it in theaters and eventually Blu-Ray?!'' ''BIG NAME ACTORS ARE BEING CAST IN IT?!'' '''''THEY GOT AN ACTUAL TRANSGENDER VOICE ACTOR TO PLAY HANA?!?''''' Shut up and take my money!! Now this movie can finally receive the treatment it deserves!!

* ''Franchise/WhenTheyCry'':
** A lot of people were really annoyed when they heard Creator/SayakaOhara playing Beatrice for the first time on a drama CD of the second arc of ''VisualNovel/UminekoWhenTheyCry''. Her voice was too low and deep, there was no way that she could troll and cackle the way Beatrice is supposed to. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_1QuqO4dRo Then they actually got to hear her in the anime]]. Let's put it this way - there's a reason that both of the quotes on her page are from Umineko.
** [[VisualNovel/HigurashiWhenTheyCry Higurashi Kira?]] Pfft...What a way to milk the franchise, Creator/StudioDEEN....Wa--- Wait, [[http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lkfouuplc91qggctwo1_500.jpg what!?]]
** Adding to Higurashi Kira, the latest preview for episode 3 features Mion x Keiichi. At least half the fandom (excluding Keiichi x Rena fans) squeed here.
** The trailer for the ''Kaku'' movie. Specifically, the part where Rena battled someone with a gun, wielding only a cleaver. In glorious, glorious, modern animation. It looks like the next entry of ''Higurashi'' will return to the blood and gore that we all love.
* ''Anime/WolfsRain'' is getting a full [=DVD=] [[http://operationrainfall.com/2016/11/13/funimation-wolfs-rain-february/ rerelease]]! Twelve years of waiting is over!
* ''Manga/TheWorldGodOnlyKnows''. Fans go ''absolutely crazy'' anytime one of Keima's UnwantedHarem girls appear outside their capture arcs.
** The Goddess arc is going to force Keima into looking for Goddesses residing in his old capture targets?!?! MY BODY IS READY!!!
* After years since the last season ended, another anime season for ''Manga/WorldTrigger'' has been announced! Despite many fans seeing the anime adaptation as subpar (being made by Creator/ToeiAnimation with the studio's common issues present), it's still thrilling news for the fandom, given the constant uncertainty of ''World Trigger's'' future thanks to the author's poor health--announcements like this are a sign that the series is still standing strong.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Y]]
* Wow, the English dub of ''Anime/YashahimePrincessHalfDemon'' has been announced... well, the cast looks pretty good, but since Creator/BangZoomEntertainment is dubbing it, looks like the original ''Manga/InuYasha'' cast won't be coming back though-- wait a minute, Bang Zoom managed to get the entire cast back!? ''[[TheOriginalDarrin Even]]'' '''Creator/DavidKaye''' as Sesshomaru!? Holy crap, well done, Bang Zoom, well done!!!
* ''Anime/YouAreUmasou'' is finally getting a western release by Discotek Media?! And they’re even including the TV series and the film’s sequel, including touching up technical stuff in the 2nd movie? Awesome!
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Z]]
* Hell eff yeah, ''Anime/ZombieLandSaga'' is getting a sequel!
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Unsorted]]
* ''[[Manga/TheLegendOfZelda The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass]]'' manga. Akira Himekawa, what have you done to Astrid?! Linebeck?! Or, Link and Tetra, for that matter?! OK, this is, officially, the worst Manga adaption since ''Oracle of''-- Princess Zelda goes badass spirit-form?! Screw the DS game, ''this'' should have been in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl''!
** Ironically, the very ''same'' plot-twist caused a Fandom Rejoice moment for the next installment of the games, ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaSpiritTracks Spirit Tracks]]''. Apparently Nintendo was running out of ideas and took a look at the Manga...except that the Game Spirit Zelda is awesome for [[AnimatedArmor completely different reasons]] than the Manga Spirit Zelda.
* Goddamn Creator/{{Funimation}} pandering to lolicons and perverts by licensing the second season of ''Anime/StrikeWitches'' and ''Manga/GirlsBravo''--Wait, they also licensed ''[[Anime/RebuildOfEvangelion Eva 2.22]]'' and ''Anime/SummerWars''? I-I'M FREAKING OUT A LITTLE!
* Anime Expo 2011, big time. Licenses include ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'', ''Manga/BlueExorcist'', ''VisualNovel/SteinsGate'', ''Manga/DeadmanWonderland'', the anime version of ''VisualNovel/EfAFairyTaleOfTheTwo'', ''Manga/KimiNiTodoke'', and many more! Our wallets are going to hurt very soon.
* Fall 2011: ''FATE/ZERO'' ANIME BY [[Literature/TheGardenOfSinners UFOTABLE and KALAFINA?!?!]] ''PERSONA 4''?!?! Old news, *SpitTake* THE THIRD SEASON OF ''[[Literature/ShakuganNoShana SHAKUGAN NO SHANA]]''!?!? THE SECOND SEASON OF ''[[Manga/SquidGirl SHINRYAKU IKA MUSUME]]''!?!?! A ''[[Manga/KOn K-ON]]'' MOVIE!!! FALL IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!!!
** ''Manga/FutureDiary''. That is all.
* Creator/SentaiFilmworks rescued both ''Manga/RozenMaiden'' series and will release them in a collection. That's nice, though Creator/{{Funimation}} already released them, so-- Hold the phone! They got the ''Ouverture'' [=OVAs=] too? Worth it, even with no dub-- What? They ACTUALLY GOT Creator/BangZoomEntertainment to dub them, and there will be an individual release, too? You have my respect, guys!
** The relationship between Sentai and Bang Zoom! continues with the licensing of the ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight: Unlimited Blade Works'' movie and the second season of ''Manga/KOn'', getting the old dub cast members back. Naturally, fans rejoiced.
* Well, ''Literature/ShakuganNoShana III'' is Creator/JCStaff's main anime this year, I guess we'll have to wait another year for ''[[Literature/ACertainMagicalIndex A Certain Magical Index III]]'' and ''[[Manga/ACertainScientificRailgun A Certain Scientific Railgun II]]''-- Wait, [[TheMovie A movie for]] ''[[TheMovie Index]]'' [[TheMovie is coming out this year!?]] [[BigYes YESSSSSSS!!!]]
* Creator/DiscotekMedia is actually ''bringing over the'' ''[[Manga/GetterRobo Shin Getter Robo VS Neo Getter Robo]]'' OVA after more than a decade!? '''[[MemeticMutation F*** DINOSAURS!]]'''
** And they picked ''Anime/MazingerZ'' AND ''Anime/CuteyHoney'' as well? And we're '''finally''' going to see an uncensored version of ''Mazinger Z'' in the US??? Discotek, you rock!
* On October 20 of 2012, there is this new anime named ''[[Manga/WorldWarBlue Aoi Sekai no Chuushin de]]''. Let's see what is it about! So, it is a war between the [[Creator/{{Sega}} Segua Kingdom]] and the [[Creator/{{Nintendo}} Ninterdo Empire]]. [[UsefulNotes/ConsoleWars That sounds familiar.]] So, the protagonists is named Gia and it is based on Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog. Seems like it is going to be some crap written by Sega fanboys. [[http://i.imgur.com/19sW7.jpg Let's take a look at the characters]]. So, it is got 9 Ninterdo characters and only 5 Segua, it is getting better. Wait, a minute, that Masa dude? HOLY SHIT! IT IS AN ''VideoGame/{{EARTHBOUND|1994}}'' CHARACTER! That anime is going to awesome!
* Remember all those anime series based on {{Light Novel}}s? Y'know, like ''Literature/ACertainMagicalIndex'', ''Literature/{{Durarara}}'', and ''Literature/{{Bakemonogatari}}''? Remember how you were sad that you'd only get to read {{Fan Translation}}s of the anime's source material? Guess what happened in 2015? Light Novels are coming out in English. ''Lots'' of them.
* Creator/DiscotekMedia not only had one, but ''two'' panels in a row that can basically amount to this reaction.
** Their December 2021 panel, ''[[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2021-12-13/discotek-licenses-skull-face-bookseller-honda-san-tales-of-phantasia-as-miss-beelzebub-likes-it-/.180592 big time]]''. Our wallets are already hurting... [[note]]To put it into perspective, counting the two [[WesternAnimation non-anime shows]] they acquired for Blu-ray, the December 2021 Discotek panel totals ''sixteen'' Blu-ray releases for different shows/movies/OVA series, all slated for 2022.[[/note]]
*** Well, I did like that Discotek announced they got ''Anime/MonColleKnights'' a year and a half ago, and the subtitled release was nice, so maybe... wait... you're saying [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome they somehow got a hold of the dub]]- ''including'' the long-thought-lost "Grin and Bear It" episode? I'd be willing to double-dip for the dub release...
*** To make things sweeter, the release date was announced at Mega Discotek Day a few months later; it's set for ''May 2022''- almost exactly one year after the subtitled release.
*** Of course, the ''Anime/MonColleKnights'' dub being found might as well be nothing compared to the fact that ''Anime/LupinIIIPart1''- that's right, ''Green Jacket''- got a complete dub courtesy of TMS- and Discotek got the go-ahead to release the dub. To top it off, Discotek also dubbed ''Anime/LupinIIIEpisode0FirstContact''.
*** ''Anime/AngelCop'' on Blu-ray? Wait, didn't Discotek release this anime a few years ba- ''as a'' '''''steelbook''''' this time?
*** So they got ''WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog'' and ''WesternAnimation/StreetSharks''... that'll please 90's cartoon fans- ''wait'', ''Manga/CatsEye''? Take my money. All of it.
*** Speaking of ''Manga/CityHunter'' and related works: ''City Hunter 3'' '''and''' ''City Hunter '91'' are being released with only a ''one-month gap between each other''. [[note]]This is, of course, assuming there are no [[ScheduleSlip delays]] related to supply chain issues.[[/note]]
*** Ten words: ''VideoGame/TalesOfPhantasia: [[TheAnimeOfTheGame the Animation]]''. [[NetworkToTheRescue It's coming to Blu-ray soon]]. [[note]]The series was previously put up for streaming, but this is the OVA series' first Blu-ray in North America.[[/note]]
** And then in March 2022, as if the above wasn't enough, Mega Discotek Day also brought multiple surprises:
*** I wonder what would lead the panel- wait, ''[=1980s=]'' ''Anime/AstroBoy''? A good pick to start the panel off with.
*** ''Anime/{{Symphogear}} GX'' finally comes to Blu-ray after a long wait (and a 2021 without any ''Symphogear'' announcements).
*** Discotek are ''remastering'' some of their old releases? Discotek, all my money.
*** While it is confirmed that the live-action film for ''Manga/{{Uzumaki}}'' will be re-released (this time, under a sub-label), it was followed up with a big announcement for anime fans: [[Anime/ProjectAKo A-ko and co.]] are back with a remaster for ''Project A-ko 2''!
*** And to top it off? ''Anime/DigimonAdventure'', on Blu-ray. A license-rescue so ''awesome'', even I can't mention more than what's already been said on [[AndTheFandomRejoiced/{{Digimon}} Digimon's page]]...
* Did Sony just announce the Creator/{{Funimation}} streaming service was being discontinued gradually in favor of Crunchyroll? [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2022-03-01/funimation-anime-content-heads-to-crunchyroll/.183135 It is]]? This is going to backfire horrib- ''Did Crunchyroll also say they're adding almost the entirety of the Funimation library'', which potentially also means Crunchyroll might add shows such as ''Muteking the Dancing Hero'', ''Manga/{{Servamp}}'', ''Manga/OuranHighSchoolHostClub'' (again), the entirety of ''Manga/ThePrinceOfTennis'' (sans the [=3DCG=] film which was not licensed by Funimation) and even '''''Anime/DragonBallZ'''''? I'd like to see where this heads.
** Man, Crunchyroll has so many old shows in their backlog that don't have English dubs, some of which were really popular when they first aired. God only knows when they'll finally get—whoa, Crunchyroll just dropped a bunch of dub announcements out of nowhere, all coming out this week or earlier?! Wait, dubs for ''Literature/RemakeOurLife'' and ''Manga/SingYesterdayForMe''?! ''Manga/{{Given}}'' and ''Manga/LaidBackCamp'' too?! Finally! Thanks for answering our prayers—'''''[[Manga/NatsumesBookOfFriends NATSUME'S BOOK OF FRIENDS?!]]''''' ''NATSUME IS FINALLY GETTING A DUB AFTER 14 YEARS?! FUCK YES!!''
