I lol'd at the title of the article. Don't really care about the anime.

This is... interesting. The only thing that really concerns me about this is whether the anime will have the same voice actors as the game, which needless to say, is highly unlikely (especially since it seems the English dialogue for the game has already been recorded, if trailers are anything to go by). I'll probably watch it for the hell of it after I play the game (which is what I'm REALLY looking forward to) but I'm not expecting anything phenomenal. It's too bad the anime wasn't at least scored by Yasunori Mitsuda.

They changed the name? Wait, its SAGA that renamed it. Why on earth did they think it needed a name change. The Jap title is already engrish.

The idea of "world destruction" sounds occult. American has a limited freedom of speech afterall ;)

not to mention it's SEGA

That's right Funi, just license completed series, stay the hell away from the currently airing ones. They can burn all their money for all I care as long as it stays like this.

A better headline for this would be "Funimation acquires a piece of s***"

I thought that the show was pretty good, though I'm surprised they did license this lol.

I thought they have already. Ohohoho

Well, yay I guess.
At least they didn't get a good show to ruin the voice acting.

haha, when I read the title, I thought "Oh shit." xD

Anyways, I don't know much about this anime, so I really don't have a opinion on this.

They actually got that? I wonder if the US version of the game will have the same VAs in the dub or not..I hate when that happens =__= .hack//G.U is a perfect example of that..
