I didn't see a thread of this nature, so what the heck, why not make one. Find anything news worthy i.e such as company acquisitions, feel free to post them.

News is sorta old but seems like bandai is releasing several big name titles next year. Take a look.

Interesting Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion is dubbed by Animaze/ZRO Limit. Been a while since I have heard a dub from them.

Can't wait till the second season of it comes out though, and i've pretty much never even heard of the Animaze/ZRO subbers before.

ZOMG! Haruhi is being dubbed!

Animaze/ZRO Limit is one of the most well known dubbing studios around. Some of their work includes both seasons of Big O, Trigun, and many of the older Gundam OVA's. Sadly they aren't used as much with company Bandai and Geneon using Bang Zoom, sorta Animazes little brother.

Edit: Well this is odd. It seems V Gundam is being dubbed, by Ocean Studio's (well that's not a surprise). I follow dub related news quite a bit but this is the first I have ever heard that V Gundam was being dubbed, and being shown on CN as well.

*spits out soda* WHAT?!
*checks more reputable sources* Yeah, there is nothing at all about bringing over Victory Gundam to AS. Not so much as a peep. Someone over there is making stuff up as I can find no other source to confirm their listing in the slightest.

Yeah, I did some searching as well and came up with the same. Was actually hoping it was true thought.  :-/

Looks like ADV and Geneon called all off their alliance. Geneon will simply be regulating their portfolio i.e Geneon go bye bye.

. . .Geneon go bye bye.

Now, now... let's not jump to any rash conclusions, people. It's still much too early to know exactly what will happen at this point.

Well, Geneon's parent company Dentsu is closing down Geneon, so if Geneon is around, it will be very very small, if any presence at all. Like alot of people, I don't want to see Geneon close down, and leaving the rest of Black Lagoon undubbed would be a crime, as the dub rocks all.

Are there any plans for Black Lagoon past the first 26 episodes?

Nothing confirmed past the Second Barrage, from what I've heard.

Like Gaddes said, Geneon will still be around, just not distributing DVDs or acquiring new licenses. The best theory I've heard (I think it was originally posted by a columnist on AnimeNation) was they'll work on managing their current titles, subcontracting portions of localization and production to different companies.

I do hope that Geneon will bounce back from this, given time, but it's still a real blow to the American anime industry.

Seems like geneon is ok but they are trying to figure out how to release new and old titles, and thank god the second season of Black Lagoon is still being done by ocean however the problem is how it will be released.

Batman gets an anime makeover. Sounds pretty interesting.

ಠ_ಠ

At first I was filled with NERD RAGE at the idea of anime-ising Batman, then I noticed they had worked on B:TAS, which could mean it was simply being done by a Japanese studio, which doesn't matter at all.

Since I can only find dead links to more than the cover of this "Child of Dreams" thing, I don't know if NERD RAGE is appropriate.

Seems like Bandai is already trying to get Gundam 00 released over here.

Child of Dreams was a weird story about ordinary people using steroids or some crap to transform into the Joker, Riddler, Killer Croc, etcetera.

The art was... good, but the story was crap. The story was the writing equivalent of Rob Liefeld's art.
