And FUNi's NOT-AT-10:30am Surprise Is...

9:04am is not 10:30am, FUNi!

So, I dutifully sat here reloading the FUNimation video page after watching FMA, ignoring my RSS feeds because I assumed the new series announcement would come at any second, and eventually I realize that it's already been up on the blog since 9:04am (presumbly CST). !@#$!

Anyway, the new series is Phantom ~Requiem for the Phantom~, the first four episodes of which will go online any second now...ah yes, there they are.

I'm not going to set up a watching thread here for this time since it's four episodes, but watch an ep or two and leave a comment if it's something you'd like to do livewatching of. That'd make my Thursday mornings busy enough! Oh, and keep an eye out for a review of Phantom later today or tomorrow.

ETA: Interesting the episodes are rated TV-MA and you have to plug in your birthday to watch. Presumably if you put in a birthday that has you at younger than 17 (18?), you get locked out.

...Though I confess, I am a little sad that it's not Eden of the East. Maybe later, huh FUNi?

Umm.. yeah, sorry about that.

Dig Deeper into Phantom ~Requiem for the Phantom~

Requiem for the Phantom is the second attempt to make an anime adaptation of the visual novel Phantom of Inferno. The first one was a low budget OVA that focused on a small part of the story in the game. This version promises to deliver more characters and plot.
