Bandai Entertainment, what happened?

It's nice to hope for, but considering that FU Nimation has chosen to use their own studio and cast for Shakugan No Shana II instead of reprising that one's old cast, somehow that seems doubtful. (I hear Funi does their dubbing in-house to reduce production costs.)

I'm glad that Sentai Filmworks tries to maintain old dub casts when they can, like they did with K-ON!! (Season 2).

Maaan, I hope someone takes over the Lucky Star manga. Maybe Yen Press?

Hopefully. I was just starting to get into it!

So far the only character returning in AO from the original anime is Eureka, and Stephanie Sheh will have no problem reprising that role if FUNIMATION does dub it considering she's no stranger to their company either (she's in Eden Of The East, Strike Witches, Sengoku Basara, Slayers: Revolution and Chaos Head). When more AO episodes air, we'll see how difficult it will be for Funimation to bother getting the original cast.

Okay, now they're going to be closing down completely.

Anyone who has Bandai titles they're still wanting to grab, best to grab them sooner rather than later.

Presumably even if other companies have sub-licensed from Bandai for local distribution they have to stop as well?

Come to think of it, I still haven't picked up Code Geass. I guess the only other thing would be Haruhi

If this is everything they did, that is.

So. Now I get to glad I'm Australian?

See those? All those titles won't be available in North America if it hasn't been renewed by another licensor before now.

Note to self: Pick up Haruhi and Eureka, ASAP.

My list is Haruhi (the show, not the movie or spin-offs), a few Lucky Star volumes, and Outlaw Star.

My list is My-Hime.
