1. Don't watch dubs (at least not new ones).
2. Don't give a dime to Funimation (including ad impressions).

funimation needs to start reading the source material before grabbing random anime licenses

At this point I'm a lot more concerned with future rights, especially the uncensored BD release. Is Funimation going to sit on that too so there may be a multi-year wait, if ever, to see this legally in its original form? It'd be ridiculous to force people to either buy the original Japanese discs or pirate it as the only options (and the Japanese release won't have subs or dub of course).

Hopefully Funimation just passes it all along to someone else asap so we don't have to deal with more bs.

This has heavy sexual themes, but it's certainly not hentai. The sex happens off screen, the sex scenes are comparable to what you would see in an R rated movie.
It's a sexual comedy, there are plenty of R rated western movies with comparable content.
There will be subs floating around, and I care enough about this to sub it myself if I have to. I've translated text heavy Japanese games in the past, I'd be willing to make and release subs files if need be.

Just watched it,and I can see why Funimation might have considered it to be a bit OTT,but hell,they aired the first eps so they must have known what it was gonna be like.

the poster is confusing Sony Pictures Television which owns Funimation with Sony Interactive which is an entirely different company (besides being another Sony company) which is based in California now (granted so is SPT). SIE is exercising more control over it's gaming division including games out of Japan.

Really disappointed at the lack of competence over this. There's no way that somewhere along the way for licensing the property they weren't told about at least some of the sexual content in this.

Anyone who has a desire of streaming this legally no longer can. This also effects the English actors and the translators for this too. Most of the actors liked the show from what I can tell.

My biggest concern is what's going to happen to the rights now. Will we ever see this show streamed legally? Will it ever get an English dub? Will we even get a blu ray release? Or this is going to be stuck in legal limbo? Honestly, this is pretty unprecedented.

You also have to wonder about the legal implications for this. Funimation advertised this as part of their streaming service, they even produced a dubbed episode. Now they quietly take it down with no official statement on any of their social media? It makes me wonder if this falls under false advertising?

So many questions, not enough answers. Guess we'll have to wait and see what happens.

They don't. If they did, why does Funimation still have series like Valkyrie Drive: Mermaid or Goblin Slayer? (I bring the latter up, because its first episode had more questionable content)

Like I said, the series was just overkill. And I'm sure Crunchyroll, Sentai Filmworks, or Aniplex of America would've pulled it, too. As a matter of fact, only Kitty Media would've licensed this kind of series without trouble.

But remember, the announcement only covered the cancellation of the simuldub. They said nothing about it being unlicensed or affecting/cancelling any Blu-ray releases (if ever).


because they where all done before sony had there censor claws in funi lol

Series such as A SIster's All You Need, Senran Kagura: Shinovi Master, High School DxD HERO, and Goblin Slayer came AFTER Sony's buyout, and Sony did nothing to what Funimation already had before.

I don't know anything about this show or the premise of it, but from what I've been able to gleam from the threads, this is making me raise an eyebrow since didn't Funimation also license Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt?

They even removed a tame fanservice gag from Fire Force. HS DxD and VDM are older titles. They have a lot of people up top with small dick energy.

1. Only on Toonami, not on FunimationNOW.
2. Older titles-- Doesn't matter. Even DxD's 4th season (from the people that brought you IR), having been licensed LONG AFTER the buyout, was, like the first three seasons, tame compared to IR.

Funimation's already had their reputation ruined the minute it was revealed that Sean Schemmel made Goku say a certain thing about Gohan...

Media Blasters/Kitty Media probably would pick this up if they had the chance, seeing as how they're still kicking today, and funnily enough I was thinking originally it was intended to be a hentai...little did I know I was being prophetic!

My guess is that some of the VAs on the dub kicked off over the content. I've heard certain VAs on the show are actually
denying they voiced certain characters in the show, even though they did. Funimation subsequently shit the bed and dropped the show.

Funimation are massively stupid with this. You could see a mile off what the content was so why did they licence it? If in doubt leave it for another streaming service to pick up.

Funimation is just a giant meme bag. And most likely their hired actors felt so "wrong" and "disgusting" while doing this kind of work especially considering the political climate in the West anyway. I mean to me, it's kinda funny when a country that is supposedly the most prudish when it comes to sex winds up becoming the most sexually liberal while the country that has sex as a mainstay considering its entertainment is all high and mighty over shit in anime. All I can say is, Funimation makes piracy all the more relevant so gg.

At all the people that dislike it because it is ecchi, I don't like ecchi, but I really like this show. Why, because it is hilarious! They explore monster girl concepts in the sexual sense.
The 'sexy' parts give me nothing, the artstyle is absolutely not for me and I don't find any of the content particularly sexy (experiences may vary), but the world is fleshed out, the characters are fun and the review content is more thoughtful than one might expect.
For me as someone that dislikes ecchi, this is the best pure fun show of the season.

Also it is quite hilarious that Funimation pushes Plunderer on their official site, a show that is way worse in the way it treats fanservice and with a main character that is essentially a sex offender, but that apparently is okay. A show about prostitution (so far all the females are headstrong and in charge) that makes fun of monster girl concepts by thinking them to the (sexual) end is not.

I have a theory funimation picked up the lincese because they knew this was as close to hentai as you can get without it being hentai for the controversy for publicity and plan on watery it down but the contract with the creator stopped them from changing it so they dropped it

Well it's certainly getting them plenty of twitter & forum postings....

Ah well - "No publicity is bad publicity".

I actually found Plunderer to be in worse taste than IR and dropped it after 3 Ep. The Hero basically molests women and it isn't funny...

And NekoPara is based on a Hentai game.

Looking into there catalogue there are plenty of questionable series in there (or were they heavily censored?).

Someone in Funi's licensing team needs sacking for being incompetent - they should have never licensed IR in the first place.

So far Ep.3 seems to be the most controversial - Ep.4 could have been censored easily by pixelation of the vagina shaped piece of meat and Crim giving cunnilingus to the salamander the rest was pretty tame.

AT-X + Fansubs was always the best way to watch this....

Plunderer is awful, but IR takes a whole different approach at sexuality to begin with. It's in consent and its a pure sexuality focused comedy. Plunderer felt like it just really didn't know what is appropriate and what isn't IMO, even the whole early drama felt awkward and poorly written.

Funimation dropped it but that doesnt mean that the studio that animates Interspecies will stop , i mean see the good point im sure theres more than website when you can find Interspecies reviewers.

Other Point. Funimation changes the original dialogs of the characters and put censored almost every lewd scene.

And im sure that in the start of the episode 4 they put that thing, when stunk and the boys where in the floor after the orgy that was clearly a message of the studio saying that even if Funimation dropped the series Interspecies Reviewers will finish all of the 12 episodes.



Also i think the anime world have become so censored, i find interspecies reviewers as a classic 2012 ecchi , the ecchis are disappearing.

Oh please, because this is totally the worst thing in terms of content that's come out in recent years. Doesn't really matter at this point, Funimation continues to depreciate what little value they have as a company day by day.

It was already highly censored. Really strange move. 10’s of thousands were watching Interspecies Reviewers legally and then they pulled it midway?!?

For the Subscriber’s they had, certainly they will lose a decent percentage over this.

NekoPara the anime is a bit ecchi plus contains some innuendos with references to the game but is far removed from being hentai so far. It’s basically cute cat girls doing cute cat girl things with a hint of GL.
