Gonzo has already licensed Crunchyroll as an online distributor so what does this mean exactly? Will the videos FUNimation sell and stream on their own site (and presumably their other channels like hulu for example) be only the dubbed releases then or the subtitled ones as well? That's ridiculously unfair. I'll support Crunchyroll... -moose “FUNimation will coordinate with Gonzo on domestic DVD distribution and online commercial distribution via multiple online outlets.”

My other thought is this: Does this mean FUNimation is obligated to option GONZO's bad projects as well?
