Funimation to Simulcast Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood; Toei Titles *Updated*
Funimation has done the not entirely unexpected and announced that they will be streaming a simulcast of the upcoming ‘Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood’ sequel series. The new chapter in the FMA story will begin airing on April 5th while the streaming episodes will be made available via Funimation’s website just four days later on April 9th. There are some varying reports regarding what time the streams will go live but I have an email out to clarify that right now.
Taking a huge step towards the surprising department however, Funimation also released a press release this morning announcing a new partnership with Toei animation. In the new partnership, Funimation will begin streaming the first few episodes of a number of Toei series including: Air Master, Fist of the North Star, Pretty Cure and others.
ETA: Just heard back from Funimation, the correct time is Thursday April 9th at 10am Central (11am Eastern/8am Pacific).
