How long does it take FUNimation to dub a short anime like this one?

Feb 7, 2013 11:56 PM by Master_Geass

FUNimation does good dubs and I like this series so I am looking forward to this.

People bitch too much about fanservice. It's like they've never seen a boob before. What's worse, they can't look past the fanservice and see that(while it CERTAINLY isn't the best and has some moments that are kind of stupid, see episode 10...) it actually has a pretty good story.

Whatever. I'm not in the mood of flaming back and forth. Hell I'm never in the mood for that.

Haven't complained though about anything. The only thing I'm complaining about is your thinking that everyone who doesn't care about ecchi and/or fanservice anime are obviously gay.
But if your just trolling with that opinion, I'm fine with leaving this discussion as it is. If you need to bitch and flame back at me, write on my profile or PM me.

You're never in the mood for that, yet you still replied to my post for teh sake of trolling.
once again, that was obviously a joke, you took it seriously. who's a troll now?
anyways, i'm not the type of guy who likes to argue over minor things online, that's immature, so let's end this conversation right here.

Agreed. And just so you know, I never troll.

EDIT: Decided to delete all my post from this thread. The news forum is not a place for unnecessary discussions and flaming.

You make me laugh because you actually took it serious, i pity you poorly raised creature. on a side note, just because you dislike it doesn't mean you should bitchin' and moanin' about it, it's obviously not for you, move on.

I have not bitched and moaned. -sigh- I actually think High School DxD is an okay anime. If the main focus was not giving fapping material to people like you, it could have been pretty decent.

This anime isn't fapping material. funny thing is, fap material usually makes more money than regular animes, Eroges in japan are heating the markets and making more money than idol buisness. so the more you complain, the bigger the fool you're making out of yourself.
"people like you" Well excuse me, last time i checked, i wasn't a troll who goes around complaining about anime with fanservice and telling people not to fap to it.

Wow, moralfags are complaining about ecchi AGAIN? OF ALL THE DAMN THINGS TO COMPLAIN ABOUT, ITS ECCHI??
To all the stupidfags who complain about fanservice, i think you're place is in a gay parade, not here.
also it's called FANFUCINGSERVICE FOR A DAMN REASON.

You make me laugh. You're gay because you're not in to anime tits? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!

I didn't see this, bwahaha. This guy.. he's joking, right?

@ bakayaro - It's not always morals that make people dislike ecchi, and it's not always because of the ecchi that some dislike this show.

Yeah, you have a point there. but complaining about ecchi? that's plain dumb if you ask me.

Kuramii said:
This is only because of the boobs, isn't it?

Yes it's because of the boobs, otaku like boobs, we like boobs. anime boobs make money. anime boobs make the otakus happy, problem?

I agree with modshroom.
If you're not a fan of fanservice anime, then go away. Nobody wanna read your sh*t opinion so go and get some attention elsewhere. Criticism is welcomed but you guys simply bad-mouthing smth. Also before you judge smth first read it's original source (the light novel in this case).

@smxmartin21
IIRC there's a 12th volume where Issei probably returns. Not sure how.

*sigh* I honestly don't see how an anime can be considered crap the second it has ecchi. I'm a selfproclamed pervert, yes I read hentai and watch ecchi, and thats probably why I enjoy shows like these. But still, if you don't like ecchi, then don't watch it instead of complaning. But yeah, I agree, Funi is taking there sweet time with the steins gate dvd's TT-TT (yes I watch non fan serviced anime's too)

How will they release this with all that nunservice and

This isn't the 1980's and 1990's man. Funi did Strike Witches which is loli.

My Main concern is will they release the DVD/BD 99% uncensored like in Japan.

Talking about Strike Witchers, they didn't bother removing the loli nipples in the American version, so I doubt they will do any changes from the Japanese BD in this case.
