Some news for Full Metal Alchemist fans....

Well, to be fair, the topic isn't 'Let's knock Funimation', nor was it ever meant to be as such, that's just a branch off, I chose to hear about/comment on the licensed status of Full Metal Alchemist is all, which is, afterall, what this thread was made for.

If you really want to make a thread that speaks ill of Funi that you can tell me I shouldn't read, you're more than welcome to...although I'm not quite sure how the mods would handle that, but I get the feeling they'd be good sports about it.

Anyways, in short:

So I disagree with the opinions that Funimation only ruins animes...
This somehow makes me less entitled to read/post on this topic than kakashi, who already is dismissing their treatment as crap without even waiting to see just what they plan to do with it?

But...let's try to get this (technically back on topic) anyways:

Anyone care to take any stabs at how the casting on this will play out? (barring the sarcastic response of Chris Sabat as half the extras)

Also let me make myself clear, I'm not bashing Funimation because it does or doesn't ruin anime but I'm bashing it because it licensed Full metal Alchemist when I was at a part in which was unravelling the mysteries of the show. DAMN THEM TO HELL!

I hope FUNimation licenses everything popular because the expression of the fanboys is so priceless.

I hope they get Naruto soon.

Anime being licensed is not the problem, CN editing stuff is not the problem. It's fanboys like you who throw a freakin' hissy fit over stuff like this who are the problem. If you can get your head out of your ass for one second, then you should realize that companies are doing this for YOU. It's elitist fanboys like you who bitch about every anime that reaches american shores and ruins it for the rest of us.

If you hate the dub track so much, then go listen to the sub track. It's that simple. Most anime nowadays that is being licensed is being released has both japanese and english tracks. Nobody's forcing you to watch the english track so why bother complaining? It's not the end of the world when an anime is licensed... oh, I forgot, it's the end of your little elitist world where all licensed anime sucks.

You're probably pissed that a show that you haven't paid for is being licensed and that fansubbers have to stop right in the middle of the series when this cool part is just starting to happen. It's not the anime companies' fault that you think you're going to die the next day and that you think you have a short ticker and may never get to see that episode you missed. Well start getting used to it and wait.

You probably think it's the cool thing to hate all licensed anime and think you're part of some cool anime group. I'm sorry but WE HATE YOU. Other anime fans who just want to enjoy their shows hate you pricks for ruining everything for us. There are some of us who are actually patient enough and want to watch anime on our DVD players with our surround sound systems as opposed to watching stuff on our computers.

As much as I'd like for you elitist fanboys to go back into the hole you crawled out from, I encourage you to keep bitching. I get so much entertainment watching you pathetic losers whine like crybabies over licensed anime. I love the fact that there is a whiny group of losers that I can laugh at all the time. Not only do I get to enjoy the new show that has just been licensed, I get to laugh at all the morons bitching. Priceless.

God will bring us the perfect day when Naruto finally gets licensed here. On the 8th day, God has licensed Naruto. It will be both beautiful and apocalyptic at the same time. The best part is that we have no idea when it will happen and it can happen at anytime but the fact is that it will be inevitable!

While you fanboys start causing violent acts around your neighborhood over the licensing of Naruto, I will be enjoying my nice shiny new Naruto DVD with my surround sound system. Why not put all of that energy into actually watching anime instead of bitching about it?

In the end...

Just let me enjoy my damn show.

if you really hate funimation that much just keep downloading the episodes. i'd be willing to give you a site to get them if it'll make you happy.
