I see Aniplex is releasing all of the things that were popular with Funi before, since they'll actually earn money. But what's a guy got to do to get R1 iDOLM@STER Blu-rays around here? Rolling Eyes

We can only hope anyone who wanted Black Butler bought it before the Funimation copies went OOP.

The sad reality this is one who that people will still buy cause it is that good, I bet funimation was really heartbroken they had to let go such a huge money maker. With it already being released at a cheaper bd before this it really does not seem worth it does it?

I did! I bought it back when they had seasons 1 & 2 together for around $70. I still haven't gotten around to watching it yet though.

We know.

Its 24 episodes aniplex likes to charge about $10/ep so normally this would be in the $240 range. However, since this is a decade old show $150 street price sounds about right.

Oh, hey its already up at RS and $150 it is. Hah!

I really wish they would dub Mushishi, Travis Willingham now lives in LA, and most other characters were one offs, so they could dub it without having to go through the effort of bringing in Funimation VAs.

I'm sure they might redub Black Butler, right?

I really doubt it. Black Butler's an older title and the dub has mostly positive reception.
