TBH, since the Last Exile box is one of Geneon's cheapest and has lots of good extras, I'm gonna look for that instead of getting it from Funi.

Nabari is too gay (yaoi hints) for my liking and it wasn't able to hold my interest at all. I dropped it after 2 episodes.

As for Last Exile, I've shared my thoughts on that already: it's a bit of a whore. It's great that it's getting rereleased for people who give a damn in yankland, though.

So, so far, 3 are complete crap and the other 2 aren't 'drop your pants and spank the monkey in public' good. The last 5 HAVE to be better, surely...

It's more like they don't want to get it. They are idiots who think their manhood will diminish if they see an anime with even a bit of harmless subtext. They are the same kind of people who go "ewwww" at shoujo anime and refuse to even attempt to watch it, because it's for girls. *cough*

Like people assuming Key's works are shoujo? People easily assume the demographic. >.> Nabari no Ou is actually Shounen. Just shounen.

Ouran only has some cause of the twins' role. otherwords, Ouran has no shounen ai. It's actually Shoujo. :P There's your big mark.

I think it's even better to just don't care about labels. Read the premise and/or give the anime a chance before deciding it's not for you, rather than just assume you won't like it because of it's "target demographic".

Lol, Funimation is apparently an expert on picking animes that nobody gives a shit about(crossing fingers they don't pick Toradora).

Edit:Then again my favorite genre is romance and it seems to always be last to get licensed.

I never heard of Mashumaro fansubs, but what you say is very likely since there is another group who subs Soul eater the same exact way as Rumbel did before they got the c&d ( I know the name but if it is them, I don't want them to get another C&D because I gave away their new name)

And Viz is much worse than Funi. They put various projects on-hold and probably never plan on picking them up again (ex. what Maora said about Full Moon). Besides as far as I know Funi hires the VA for most/all of Viz's projects. [Though I might be wrong about that >.>]

But Gintama, Reborn, and Soul Eater would probably attract the same type of audience as Naruto and Bleach, so I can't see them treating any of those the same as the ones you mentioned.
