SakuraCon: Funimation Sneak Peek Panel
So what do you think of the new site ? I know that it looks a little rough right now but please keep coming back because there are going to be a ton of updates in the coming weeks. Expect new layouts, new widgets, new reviews and the same snarky content you’ve come to expect from me. In a coverage note, I may not be able to liveblog the Funimation industry panel today but I am working as fast as I can to fix the situation. But moving on to what’s important…
Technical issues seem to be fairly normal for this year’s SakuraCon so Technical issues seemed to follow Funimation quite readily on the first day of sakuracon this year but that led to lots of free Q&A time with Funimation rep Adam Sheehan. So with that, here are some of the highlights from the sneak peek and premiere of Heroic Age. Pictures were taken at both events but those are going to have to wait until after I get home and download them onto my computer.
New Release Dates:
Soul Eater will be released in box sets (singles will now be the exception, not the rule) starting in late 2009 or early 2010.
Romeo x Juliet Set 1: 6/23
Nabari no Ou: Fall 09
Sgt Frog: Late 2009
Heroic Age Box Set 1: 5/12
Murder Princess Box Set 1: 5/12
Look for the first real set of news on Strike Witches and Linebarrels of Iron in the late summer or early fall.
