Re: [Anime] Bandai downsizing, ending US distribution

said by Tenar:

For me, It looks like it's time I gave up on the anime hobby. I'm not interested in watching subbed only shows. Reading subtitles ruins the experience for me.

I have a lot of bandai releases in my collection - bet they will go up in value now

I predict anime to go further out of the mainstream maybe to be discovered again someday though another dragon ball show.

If they seriously wanted my business they would set up some sort of netflix type system I could subscribe to that would have same day subbed anime (Every show, not just the top three Naruto, Bleach and One Piece etc.). I would easily pay 15-20 bucks a month for something like this.

Funimation continues to build on their services, give them time I think it will grow. There is subbed anime on Netflix to watch, anything from Viz is sub only there (jerks).

I gave up on it in 2008 right before leaving to live and work in Japan for 3 years. Even in Japan I never watched anime on TV, and would still only download the odd series on a rare occasion if it came recommended.

Most of the anime these days is pure junk imo. To think that Japanese license holders would expect us to pay top dollar for that junk is pretty funny. If saw the cost of animated shows on dvd/blurays in Japan, you would actually laugh. The real joke is that people must actually buy it though.
