Monster anime Patch#

This was extremely frustrating and a huge problem since shonen series like those were the most popular. They did the same thing with Bleach except I think it was closer to episode 20. But they had a MAJOR problem with shonen series like Naruto and Bleach where they would get to episode 30 or so in Naruto (Forest of Death) then restart from episode 1. hack, Gundam Seed and Eureka seveN pretty well (with occasional resets). They handled shows like Witch Hunter Robin. YTV was the place to watch anime in Canada back then. and I wonder how anime companies can't understand this. These make more money than any other anime. Then there are stuff like Sailor Moon and Dragon Ball which everyone has seen. I remember Yugioh and Naruto being super popular when I was in elementary and middle school. they can be a nice may to make some money despite a lack of more recent hits.Д¬lick to expand.I think the reason why anime has become more niche than in the past is because they didn't really take advantage of television (at least in Canada). they aren't taking effort away from series that are currently more popular and 2.

Shows like these get released when there's a particularly dry patch of new releases so that way 1. There isn't a huge market for an Outlaw Star re-release, so there's no reason for Funi to put their efforts into releasing that instead of the show that aired 2-3 seasons ago that's popular now. That's why you see companies like Funimation sit on the licence to Outlaw Star, even though they've had it for around 2 years. The majority of the people who would want these series on DVD/Blu-ray already own it, because the majority of the people that would want it were around for when it was released the first time. The thing is is that there isn't a big market for series that were popular in the early 2000's. RightStuf got the rights to Gundam Wing about a year ago, along with every other Gundam series, so that's in the pipeline. Media Blasters folds, both of which leave the series up for grabs. We'll probably get some new within the next year or so now that Anno doesn't have to get Gainax or TV Tokyo to agree on a licencor (Hint: It'll probably be Funimation who picks it up).Д«erserk is still owned by Media Blasters, which almost exclusively releases garbage ecchi at this point, so there's little hope there unless 1.

Click to expand.I know that with Evangelion, the problem lies/lied with the fact that Anno, Gainax, and TV Tokyo can't seem to agree on who to sell the license to, but that's a somewhat unique situation (three separate entities being partial owners of one series) and I think Anno and Studio Khara managed to acquire complete ownership of the series about a year or two ago.
