Kamikazecon Coverage from ANN
Anime News Network has a very detailed report of Kamikazecon, the Houston anime convention.
Highlights from Funimation:
- Tenchi Muyo OVA 3 will contain 98% of the original cast of dubbers as previous OVAs
And ADV Films:
- Secondary studio, Monster Island, has been shut down
- A new section of the ADV Website will be for “web exclusive sales” of DVDs not sold in retail stores
- Matt Greenfield describes fansubbing as “devastating” to the market
- The Anime Network will be pushing its VOD and ADV sees it as the future of the channel
- Live action Evangelion is still alive
Please head on over to Anime News Network for the complete report.
The fact that ADV Films will be doing web exclusive DVD sales has sparked quite a bit of discussion. The Anime On DVD forums has a thread about past ADV website sales and the Anime Jump forums are not happy about the announcement.
