It's great to see a bunch of Bandai Entertainment animes go to new companies that aren't Aniplex USA. I look forward to seeing the "of the Stars" shows when they end up on Netflix (Like most of the others on the FUNimation list). I'm not familiar with Sentai Filmworks, how's their DVD pricing? I'd be interested in some well priced DVDs of s-CRY-ed and Betterman.

The question remains, unless I missed some news (which is likely, I don't keep up with anime news much), what about Gundam?! Gundam can be a success again if a company that cared got ahold of it. Age or Build Fighters needs to be airing alongside DBZ or Yugi-Oh. It can have a toy line and everything. Then for the adult fans (aside from uncut DVDs of whatever aired), get one of the old shows that was either unaired or never released stateside and put it on Toonami. I don't want to see the Gundam license go the way of Macross.
