* ''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!

* ''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 Website/{{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!

* 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 Website/{{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.

* Website/{{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]]?

** 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]] Website/{{Crunchyroll}} got ''Pri Chan''. Yes, ''the'' same Website/{{Crunchyroll}} that got ''Anime/PrettyCure'' out of licensing hell 6 months earlier. Thanks, Crunchyroll!

* 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]]!

* Did Sony just announce the Creator/{{Funimation}} streaming service was being discontinued gradually in favor of Website/{{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, Website/{{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!!''
